A one-year-old baby has left social media in shock after a video of him successfully lifting a 15lb medicine ball was shared online. The impressive clip was uploaded to TikTok by the youngster's father, who uses the handle @truerebel88 on the social media platform. "[My] one year old was determined to pick up this 15 pound medicine ball and succeeded," the amazed dad captured the post, which has since amassed over 31 million views on TikTok in just five days. Check out the powerhouse video below: [[tiktokwidget||https://www.tiktok.com/@truerebel88/video/6999398243121515782]] In the clip, the child can be seen crying with determination as he tries and succeeds in lifting the 15lb (6.8kg) weight. Not only that, he did reps - lifting the medicine ball twice, and all while keeping his pacifier in his mouth. Astounded by what they had witnessed, it wasn't long before TikTok users flooded the comments section with praise for the youngster. One person jokingly asked: "I'm moving this weekend can he help?" <img class="size-large wp-image-1263124440" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/08/Screen-Shot-2021-08-28-at-13.32.51-1024x169.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="169" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Tiktok]] A second TikToker commented: "He was definitely a strongman in his past life." <img class="size-large wp-image-1263124439" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/08/Screen-Shot-2021-08-28-at-13.34.12-1024x185.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="185" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Tiktok]] A third joked: "He has better form than most guys at the gym." (I say "joked", this comment is actually pretty accurate.) <img class="size-large wp-image-1263124438" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/08/Screen-Shot-2021-08-28-at-13.34.17-1024x183.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="183" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Tiktok]] "One day, this is gonna be one of those videos they show before his weightlifting competition and he'll be like 'i've been doing this all my life," another TikTok user wrote. <img class="size-large wp-image-1263124437" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/08/Screen-Shot-2021-08-28-at-13.35.20-1024x266.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="266" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Tiktok]] And finally, this guy hit the nail on the head when he commented: "Why do I feel like this baby gonna put ME in time out?!" <img class="size-large wp-image-1263124436" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/08/Screen-Shot-2021-08-28-at-13.36.35-1024x218.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="218" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Tiktok]] The impressive clip has also been shared on <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/nextfuckinglevel/comments/parpdh/he_was_determined_to_pick_up_this_15lbs_medicine/">Reddit</a>, where users are jokingly providing commentary on the child's lift, with one person commenting: "Form was pretty decent on his first lift. Drove his legs into the ground and used his back a bit in the end. 2nd lift it just unraveled. Could really see the fatigue setting in. "Get usage of the pacifier tho, mentally in tune and breathing seemed adequate. I see great things on the horizon." The father later treated his followers to a video showing the baby's first attempt, which you can see below: [[tiktokwidget||https://www.tiktok.com/@truerebel88/video/6999758240271715590]] This one-year-old is all the motivation I need to get back to the gym and start lifting! <h6>Featured image credit: Image Source / Alamy</h6>
