- Title Gym Instructor Showcases Incredible Work To Help Child With Special Needs
- Summary A man captured a heartwarming moment during a training session with a young boy in a viral Instagram clip that amassed 31.1 million views. On January 12, Michael Lumumba was working in Dublin, Ireland, where he had created a specialised gym to help children with extra needs train for free. The boy, called Jim, has Prader-Willi Syndrome, which affects his muscle tone and metabolism. Michael explained that in the clip, it was the first time Jim had been able to step on and off the box unaided. The pair can be seen celebrating as Jim continues the workout. Michael said, “These challenges can make maintaining a healthy weight and building strength more difficult, which makes Jim’s commitment and progress even more impressive.”
