Hey dads, so my 14 year old son just asked me to take him to the gym with me. I got a little emotional in private. My son is not drastically overweight per say. But I would like his weight to be a little more on the healthier side. For him to ask me out of the blue like that, I know he's been thinking about it in private.

I without a doubt and without hesitation will be taking him with me. I'm overweight and not healthy myself, but have been working on it. When I'm at the gym I like to go hard and push myself. Now I don't want to do this with him and want him to be safe.

So what kind of things can I do to make the gym fun but safe? I would like to get his cardio up for sure.
