A 13-year-old bodybuilder, who can lift 100lbs, trains at home as he is too young to join a gym.

Eric English, who is from Fredericton, Canada, but has since moved to Scottsdale, Arizona, has a strong social media following, a stream of sponsorship deals, and his own website where gym goers can view his successful fitness plan.

He has been making waves on social media with his ‘Hulk’ like physique and has amassed over 500,000 followers on Instagram through his impressive fitness videos where he shows off his toned body.

After getting enthused by working out after watching a push-up challenge video on YouTube, Eric has since been working out for over a year and a half now where he looks up to fitness icons Alex Eubank and David Laid.

His dad, Christopher, admitted he couldn’t be prouder of what his son has achieved.

He said: ‘I am very proud of my son, Eric. He has worked consistently and pushed himself daily to achieve a very masculine look.

‘I love how his story is inspiring other young people to become more active and physically fit in a day and age where we can so easily get lost in electronic gadgets.’

Due to his young age, the influencer is unable to attend the gym but takes full advantage of his own equipment which he uses five days a week at home.

The adolescent can lift upwards of 100lbs on his upper body using his home gym. 

Eric was forced to move to the USA due to family medical reasons, leaving his older siblings behind in Canada. 

The change of circumstances motivated Eric to stay as active as possible.

On the muscle mass that he has been able to gain so far, Eric said: ‘I feel quite confident with my physique because I’m very lean for my age. 

‘Usually, people get impressed when I remove my shirt because shirts and hoodies hide my lean muscles.

He currently works out five days a week at home and inspires teenagers his age to stay active 

‘People are impressed by how lean and muscled I am for my age, that’s what made me popular.

‘I currently work out five days a week at home with my own equipment or right outside my house for cardio as I don’t have gym access at the moment.

‘The best reaction is the fans who send me their progress and thank me because I inspired them. 

‘But the craziest reaction I had from a fan was a French boy who came to insult me and said ”You stole my girlfriend” because his girlfriend had broken up with him because she fell in love with me!

‘It seems that social media quickly exaggerates everything in the minds of fans, especially younger fans.’
