Dog Keeps Owner Company During Workouts—Hysterics at What He Learns
Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content.
A dog's attempt to work out with his owner during a training session has gone viral in a hilarious clip.
Bri Schneider, 31, and her husband, Zeke, 34, live in St Petersburg, Florida, with their adored dogs Rambo, 8, and 5-year-old Mojito.
The couple do everything with their pups—including, it appears, working out.
Schneider and Zeke have a home gym, and during a recent workout, Mojito decided to join Zeke for a training session, possibly for further motivation, or as Schneider described it: "My dog likes to mock my husband during his workouts."
In a video posted to their TikTok account, @schneidersonthego on June 30, viewed close to 600,000 times, Zeke is focusing on doing sit-ups, while their Rottweiler, Rambo, takes a nap next to him.
Mojito is also lying beside him—but rather than take a nap, Old English Sheepdog Mojito is on his back, his front paws curled up before him, and kicking his hind legs wildly in the air, as though trying to copy his owner.
"He has always done this," Schneider told Newsweek. "He does it a lot, and also does it outside of the gym."

She added: "My husband enjoys his workout buddy, but also gets a little distracted!"
Schneider, who also posts to Instagram under the name @bri__schneider, captioned the post: "You're doing it wrong, dad!"
TikTok users were in stitches, one describing Mojito as "man's best workout buddy," and another joking: "When they say dogs are just toddlers this is what they mean."
One asked: "Sign us up for Mojito's next class," and while another joked: "Heaven forbid a dog work on their abs," yet another described it as the dog "doing bicycle kicks."
And as one commenter summed it up: "He is doing leg day."

While dogs don't need to do crunches or squats to get fit, exercise is extremely important for their mental and physical health. Walking is the best way to get a dog exercise, but there are also indoor-friendly activities you can do with your dog to keep them fit.
A tug-of-war, indoor fetch, creating a scavenger hunt or even an indoor obstacle course are ways to keep your dog active if you're unable to get outside for a walk, according to a vet-reviewed report from PetMD.

10 TV Characters Who'd Be TikTok Influencers In 2025
1. Moira Rose (Schitt's Creek) Haul of vintage wigs, overly dramatic lip syncs, and cryptic "life advice." Her bio? "Former soap opera star. Now educating the masses. Caw, caw!" 2. Rue Bennett (Euphoria) No thirst traps. No trends. Just POV videos set to obscure music and cryptic captions like "it's all a simulation." 2M followers. No explanation. 3. Blair Waldorf (Gossip Girl) Soft-launching Chuck every other week and posts sponsored by high-end skincare brands. She definitely writes long captions like it's Tumblr in 2010. 4. Michael Scott (The Office) Would go viral weekly for saying completely unhinged things at work. Accidentally creates a meme without realizing it. 5. Sydney Adamu (The Bear) Her TikToks would be stressful, intense, and weirdly inspiring. "Yes, chef," but make it girlboss. 6. Steve Harrington (Stranger Things) He thinks he's posting for the boys but is unintentionally a thirst trap king. The comments are feral. 7. Penelope Featherington (Bridgerton) Secret soft-launches, gossip threads, bookish thirst traps. Starts with regency-core vibes, ends up being your favorite messy narrator. 9. Nate Jacobs (Euphoria) Posts shirtless videos with moody lighting and Nicki Minaj audio. The comments are unwell. 10. Spencer Reid (Criminal Minds) Nerdy facts, introvert vibes, accidental thirst traps. "Here's a fact you didn't ask for" turns into a fan account war in the comments. Quiet king of TikTok. Are there any other TV characters you could see ruling our TikTok screens? Let me know in the comments!

The Project announces shock 'return' in new format after being axed
The Project may have aired its final episode last week, but the Channel 10 current affairs program is continuing to live online. For the past few days, the show's Instagram account has been posting both Australian and international news headlines to its audience of 400,000 followers. After receiving some confused comments from people questioning whether The Project was returning following its recent cancellation, the account shared a statement on Thursday evening to clarify the situation. They confirmed that while the show is no longer on air, the social team will continue to post about the news. RELATED: Channel 10 viewers fuming over The Project's replacement: 'Won't last the year' The Project star announces surprising career move after show's cancellation Channel 10 fires Australian Survivor host Jonathan LaPaglia in brutal shakeup 'So... I posted a few things. People noticed. Slightly more than I expected,' they wrote. 'Turns out, there's a lot of news. Whether it's serious stuff, the weird stuff, the did-that-actually-happen?! stuff. And I reckon we have enough to fill a few posts a day... and you seem to like it? 'So here's the deal: I post news, you read it, laugh, comment, maybe have a little existential crisis (optional), and we keep building a space that feels smart, sharp and not sad all the time. Sound good? Want more? Say the word. And if you don't... I'll just keep pretending you do, for my mental health.' The announcement gained 11,000 likes in 12 hours, making it one of The Project's most popular Instagram posts in months. The post also received plenty of comments from its famous followers, including Colin Fassnidge, Matty 'J' Johnson, and Julie Goodwin. 'Love it!' Magda Szubanski wrote, followed by Rob Mills who said, 'I'm in.'. 'I am SO HERE FOR THIS!!' former host Lisa Wilkinson commented on another recent post, while The Project's producer Rove McManus joked, 'I don't know if I'm still paying for this, but I'm all for it'. Julia Morris, Dannii Minogue and Georgia Love have also shown their support for the show's 'rebrand', with host Sarah Harris commenting, 'Here for it'. Interestingly, Social Blade statistics show that The Project's Instagram account has gained 12,000 followers since the announcement last month that the show had been cancelled. This comes shortly after it was announced that The Project presenter Georgie Tunny would be joining the network's brand-new current affairs program, 10 News+. The show, hosted by Amelia Brace and Denham Hitchcock, premiered at 6pm on Monday and airs six days a week. Channel 10 announced in a statement on Thursday that Georgie will bring her passion for sport, news, and storytelling to the program, covering the biggest stories and events in Australia and around the world.
