“I didn’t actually do them that quick,” he added.

Other followers were quick to back him up, saying that Tim is doing an excellent job at parenting.

“So cute. You’re doing a great job. She is so adorable, and that hair!” one wrote.

“Little Elle would get a rougher ride in her stroller or car for god’s sake,” another added.

Tim didn’t seem to take the criticism to heart, adding a lighthearted caption to the post.

“We did 50 chins, 50 dips … in 12 mins,” he began.

“Elle bet me I couldn’t do it so we chipped away 2 at a time with the clock counting down … I’m sure she was gaining weight as we trained,” Tim joked.

Tim and Anna welcomed Elle to the world with an Instagram post on November 14.

“Introducing the newest addition to our family, Elle Robards,” Anna wrote.
