All of the dialogues from Fitness for Kids video above

Justin: Hey Kiddo, why are you so sad?
Jason: Well, do you remember how flexible I was at the start of this year. But then due to monsoon with no activities happening around, my body has turned stiff.
Justin: That was but expected. But you can take a lesson from it.
Jason: What could have I done better? There was and still is no alternative to keeping fit without activities.
Justin: But didn’t I constantly kept on reminding that you get into self-training?
Jason: Hmm…. I remember. You would advise me on that. Dad would suggest it too. But what should I do now?
Justin: Just get started.
Jason: I mean, how can I begin self-workout again?
Justin: The way I do. You can always start exercising on our front porch.
Jason: Does that mean we both can work out together?
Justin: Yes, of course. At the end, we don’t need a lot of space just to exert, do we?
Jason: What will the routine be like?
Justin: It will consist of skipping, high knee, butt kicks and such others which can be performed at the same place.
Jason: So, for few months we will have to stick to this pattern while missing out on outdoor sessions.
Justin: Exactly. This is the best we can do. Until monsoon is over.

Jason: That will take some time.
Justin: Right, so until then, we shall do what is in our best interest to keep our body fit.
Jason: Very true. I have something to say though.
Justin: Now what is it?
Jason: For any type of activity, I was always part of some group. Now shifting to this new method, I am wondering if it would be fun.
Justin: Jason, being physically fit is even more important than fun. Let’s get ourselves in shape again and then we shall think about fun, okay? (Smiles)
Jason: Okay, if you insist. But we will be done with all that very quick right?
Justin: No. We will be following it for 2 hours each day.
Jason: 2 hours each day? Wouldn’t that be too much?
Justin: We will be taking multiple breaks so we don’t drain out.
Jason: That sounds like a plan. I’m all for it.
Justin: So, gear up for tomorrow evening sharp 4 pm.
Jason: Done.
