Cubis the little monkey woke up buzzing with energy—more than usual! Sunshine was pouring into the house, and today he had a big plan: he wanted to join Dad’s morning workout routine. Dad always seemed so strong and cool doing push-ups, sit-ups, and stretching like a fitness star. Cubis thought, How hard could it be?
As soon as Dad rolled out his exercise mat, Cubis raced over, doing his own dramatic stretches—arms wide, tail up, and a proud grin on his face. Dad chuckled and said, “Alright, little champ, let’s see what you’ve got!”
First up: push-ups. Dad lowered down with perfect form. Cubis… not so much. He flopped flat like a pancake, his tiny legs kicking behind him. “Oof!” he squeaked, looking up in confusion. Dad cheered him on, but Cubis decided push-ups were clearly broken.
Next: squats. Dad bent his knees smoothly, but every time Cubis tried, his balance gave up. He wobbled like jelly, slipped backwards, and rolled straight under the couch! His tail stuck out waving like a flag. Dad laughed so hard he almost fell over.
Then came sit-ups. Dad lifted himself up easily. Cubis got stuck halfway and started swinging his arms like a little windmill. After three attempts, he gave up and demanded a snack—because obviously workouts require bananas!
Dad handed him a tiny banana slice, but Cubis accidentally stepped on a yoga ball. Whoosh! The ball shot forward, and Cubis zoomed across the room like a rocket! He crashed right into a pile of laundry and popped up wearing Dad’s gym headband like a champion.
By the time Dad finished his workout, Cubis was sprawled on the floor, tongue out, pretending he had mastered every exercise. Dad scooped him up and said, “Great job, buddy! Maybe tomorrow we’ll try again.”
Cubis nodded proudly… then promptly fell asleep in Dad’s arms, dreaming of becoming the strongest monkey hero.
One thing was certain: mornings with Cubis were the funniest workouts ever! 🐒💪😂
