During the lockdown he taught everyone's kids PE and now, Joe Wicks has explained why he's taken his daughter out of school.
He revealed the rationale behind pulling his four-year-old daughter Indie out of school during a recent Q&A with fans on Instagram.
Someone wanted to know what the 'deciding factor' had been behind his decision to pull her out of school and home-school her instead.
The fitness coach said one of the main reasons behind doing it was having the 'freedom to travel more and explore the world'.

He has three children with wife Rosie Jones - four-year-old Indie, three-year-old Marley and 10-month-old Leni - though whether they'll all be home-schooled remains to be seen.
Responding to the query on Instagram, he provided the answer to his decision behind home-schooling and said it might not be forever, or even a long term arrangement.
He said: "There's really nothing more to the decision than we just love being together as a family and want to spend more with the kids while we can.
"She had a great year in reception but we have always loved teaching the kids at home and want the freedom to travel more and explore the world.
"She might go to school next year. We have no idea long term but want to do at least a year of home educating."
Wicks was so popular thanks to his PE lessons during lockdowns that there were calls for him to receive a knighthood in recognition of his efforts.
While he didn't quite get that knighthood, having to settle for an MBE instead, Wicks is still a very popular figure.
While a lot of parents gave home-schooling a go during the pandemic, they found it really difficult and gained a newfound appreciation for what teachers do.
With classrooms closed, there were households up and down the land which were glad to outsource the PE stuff to Wicks and figure out the rest themselves.
However, a lot of parents found that it was an uphill struggle to home school their children so it's by no means an easy thing for a parent to do.
It's also not a doss for the kids going through home-schooling, despite what I thought when I was younger and begged my parents to let me do it.
There was more support available during the pandemic where the BBC created a series of educational videos featuring the likes of Danny Dyer and Sir David Attenborough.
