5-year-old Zhang Wang trains to walk on wires in a series of ‘Spartan’ workout plans designed by his father. The plans include one-arm push-ups, rock climbing and Chinese Kung Fu cudgel.
The boy from southwest China’s Sichuan Province has become an internet celebrity in China.
His father, previously a migrant worker, has his son’s best interests in mind, despite the training seeming quite arduous for such a young child. The father hopes that training his son like this will build his confidence and extend his range of interests.
His father sees safety as a top priority and always accompanies his son when training.
