The child grew up inconspicuous and fragile. The girl never thought about a career as an athlete. In order to educate an inconspicuous and fragile defenseless baby to believe in herself and teach how to defend herself, the father took his daughter to the gym. The head of the family never played sports himself.
The main goal was to bring physical shape in order. In addition, the teenager wanted to become at least a little stronger. However, both exercises with a barbell and with dumbbells turned out to be so attractive that the girl no longer wanted to stop and interrupt the workout.
