Fitness guru Joe Wicks says he will not be "going anywhere" during the current pandemic as he spoke of his joy at seeing families exercise together at this timer.
The Body Coach's online PE classes have been a huge hit, with one in particular watched by almost a million people.
The 33-year-old is the cover star of UK magazine The Big Issue app's first edition, giving readers a chance to support local vendors after street sales for the magazine stopped because of the current restrictions in the UK.
Wicks said he has been "so amazed at how many people have taken part" in his classes.
He told The Big Issue: "I'm seeing families for the very first time exercising together and that's really powerful role modelling, your parents exercising with you, being silly, being a bit childish and feeling good.
"I think this is going to have long, long lasting benefits for these children and families."
He added: "No matter how positive you are this is still a tough time for people... It's so easy to be great on the surface, thinking I'm fine then suddenly, it can all come crumbling down around you...
"I'm not going anywhere. As long as we're quarantined, as long as the schools are shut and you need me, I'll be there."
