How to get past this old man in Leaf green? - Side view of aged gray haired male in warm outerwear writing with pen in notebook while standing in park

It's been a while since I last played Pokémon Leaf green.
I am playing it with my nephew and he asked me how to get to first gym(Brock's gym to get boulder badge.)

Here is the problem:

An old man

An old man is lying there and not allowing to pass through to the path that leads to the gym. As we are in a hurry( i can neither recall nor nor find any good source).

Please help,
thanks in advance ^_^
