Viral Video Shows Hilarious Difference Between Senior and Young Dogs’ Reactions to Owner’s Workout
FLORIDA — A pair of Pit Bull brothers from Florida are melting hearts across social media after a viral video showed their comically opposite reactions to their owner’s at-home workout session.
The Lazy Coach vs. The Personal Trainer
The dogs, Noah and Lincoln, have built a following of over 684,000 fans on Instagram under the handle @noah_and_lincoln, where they’re known for their contrasting personalities. Their latest clip perfectly captures how age and energy level can make all the difference between two pups living under the same roof.
In the video, Noah, the senior of the two, is seen lounging comfortably on his bed while his owner performs TRX rows just a few feet away. Despite the motion and noise, Noah doesn’t so much as lift an eyebrow — clearly choosing relaxation over cardio.
Moments later, the scene cuts to Lincoln, the younger brother, who explodes with excitement as soon as the workout begins. Jumping, wagging, and circling his owner, Lincoln looks ready to turn the routine into a full-on training session. At one point, he even appears to grab at the exercise straps, as if saying, “Move over, Dad — let me show you how it’s done.”
Fans Can’t Get Enough
The clip sparked thousands of comments, with fans cheering on both dogs for their very different approaches to fitness.
“Lincoln is the best personal trainer ever — and Noah’s the ultimate relaxation coach,” one user joked. Another quipped, “That side-eye from Noah says, ‘You had all day to do this, and now?’”
Others praised the brothers’ bond, noting how their personalities seem to balance each other perfectly.

A Lesson in Dog Energy (and Humor)
Experts often note that a dog’s reaction to activity can depend heavily on age, temperament, and daily routine. Senior dogs like Noah are more likely to prefer comfort and rest, while younger pups like Lincoln crave stimulation and attention — even if it means interrupting a workout.
The video continues to circulate widely across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts, racking up millions of views and proving once again that dogs never fail to turn everyday moments into comedy gold.
