Watch a report by ITV News Anglia's Matthew Hudson
Children at a school in Bedford had a very special visitor to help them with their Friday fitness.
Mr Motivator paid a virtual visit to Cranfield Academy to get staff, children and their families up and moving.
The fitness fanatic has been preaching a gospel of positivity on our TVs since long before the children at Cranfield were born, and said he couldn't wait until lockdown was over to get involved.
Teachers at the school have been holding an activity day to reward pupils for their efforts over the past months.
Children of key workers were able to workout together, while other pupils were able to join in at home, including thousands of children from five different schools.
Mr Motivator stepped up to help with the youngsters' physical and mental health, and to help them have plenty of fun!
Here's what the children at Cranfield thought of their visitor:
The return to school early next month will allow children to get back to more exercise. in this corner of Bedfordshire, they've had a bit of a head start- thanks to Mr Motivator.
