This Family Spent 6 Months Working Out, And The Results Are Inspiring

Say what you will about social media. But sometimes the thrill of sharing what you’re going through is enough to spur some positive energy. Take these Chinese family workout progress pics, for example.

Taken by photographer Ding Guoliang, they serve as a public document of what can happen when you (along with your whole family) believe in yourself. So look at how Ding Guoliang and his whole family changed their bodies. And then hit that gym!

Before And After

Ding Guoliang, a 31-year-old photographer who snaps pics in China under the name Jesse, underwent his most dramatic project yet: documenting his family’s incredible fitness transformation.

First Steps

Guoliang, expecting a child with his wife, invited his parents to live with them to help prepare for the incoming child. The first step to familial physical health involved regular power walks, but that soon became child’s play for the intrepid family.

One Day At A Time

Power walks gave way to jogging sessions, which gave way to gym sessions, which gave way to astonishing before-and-after pics like this.

Permanent Record

Originally, the family’s plan was to stay ultra-healthy for six months, but loved how they looked and felt so much, that they now live like this permanently.
