Ross Enamait challenges the notion that fatherhood inevitably leads to weight gain, dismissing the popular “dad bod” trend. He argues that being a parent should never be an excuse for neglecting personal health, emphasizing the importance of leading by example for the benefit of one’s children. Through his personal experiences, Enamait shows how maintaining a strong and active lifestyle can enhance fatherhood, not hinder it.

Quotes to ponder:
"Fathers don’t suddenly become fat because of children. Weight is gained due to excess food and drink consumption and/or lack of physical activity."
"Prioritizing your health is not selfish. On the contrary, it is something that all parents should do to set a positive example for their children."
"Life isn’t supposed to be easy. Life can be extremely difficult and trying. We have all endured tough times at one point or another."
