15 months old and lifting 16oz cans of beans from the top (aka hub lifting)! She's practically doing an upright row with them! And check out the left hand - not even using the index finger!
I think at this age kids do few things that stand out amongst other children their age. But this little girl lifts, and eats, (have you ever heard of a 1 year old that likes peppers and onions?) things that I doubt others her age are playing with. Last week I caught her walking around with a 2.5kg Ivanko collar, carrying it out in front of her with two hands on the tighten down bar.
I must confess, I started giving her a little pink 1lb dumbbell at 4 months old :) It was rubber coated and she seemed to like using it as a teething ring, and I admit to encouraging it :) Plus, I've got some theories about intellectual development being linked to hand strength & dexterity by way of neurological efficiency... but that is another post for another time.
Good day!

That's awesome Dan
What a cutie pie, & so strong! :)
That's awesome! I love it! I can't believe she's already 15 months.
We have an Oly-lifting friend with a little boy. He was doing some pretty nifty stuff early on, too. Its so fun to watch them mirror the big boys (& girls).
I wouldn't expect any less!
Thats awesome dan! I have a girl (my first child) on the way in June. My wife is already worried she doesn't a chance of keeping her from being a tomboy.
