bundle of energy

Someone constantly moving

A bundle of energy is a person, usually a child or animal, who is exceptionally lively and active: Our new puppy is a bundle of energy.

The phrase captures how vitality seems concentrated and barely contained in the subject, ready to burst outward.

Sometimes used ironically for someone who is sluggish or tired.
