Fitness guru Kayla Itsines has proven that when it comes to an active lifestyle, it's never too early to start. The 34-year-old entrepreneur celebrated her son Jax's third birthday this week by posting an adorable and energetic video montage on Instagram, showcasing the toddler's boundless energy and early enthusiasm for fitness.
An Energetic Birthday Celebration
The heartwarming clip, shared with her millions of followers, captured little Jax in a whirlwind of activity. The montage featured the adventurous three-year-old engaging in various playful antics, from playing with his older sister, Arna, to being doted on by his father, Jae Woodroffe. In one standout moment, Jax was seen happily running on a treadmill while his proud mother, Kayla, stood behind him, gently holding his hands for support.
The video also highlighted Jax's surprising willingness to help with chores, as he was filmed diligently mopping the floor of a gym. Kayla captioned the post with a joyful message, writing: "Happy 3rd Birthday to my very well-behaved son JAXXXYYYYYBOOOYYYY WE LOVE YOU."
Followers React to the 'Pure Chaos'
The post quickly garnered a flood of comments from fans who were both amused and exhausted simply from watching the lively compilation. One follower joked, "I'm out of breath watching this video compilation," while another quipped, "I think I burned 200 calories from my heart racing with anxiety." Many parents related directly, with one noting, "I'm pretty sure I have the exact same footage of my 4yo boy." Kayla herself agreed with the sentiment, replying, "Tell me about it."
Another fan perfectly summarised the clip's charm, commenting, "He is 100% pure chaos and there is nothing better than seeing him love every second of life! Happy Birthday to Jaxy!"
Insights into Family Dynamics
This glimpse into her son's birthday comes after Kayla recently opened up about her approach to handling disputes between her two young children. In a November Instagram post, she explained how she encouraged her six-year-old daughter, Arna, to stand up for herself after she pushed Jax to the floor during a squabble over a toy.
Kayla described intervening by getting down to Jax's level and saying firmly, "She said stop. Listen the first time." She revealed the incident began when Jax tried to take a toy from Arna, leading to her daughter's forceful reaction. Kayla shares custody of Arna with her ex-partner, Tobi Pearce.
Kayla and her husband, Jae Woodroffe, 34, were married in December 2023. The couple welcomed their son Jax in January 2023, blending their family with Kayla's daughter from her previous relationship.
