   Episode 2: The Beginner's Advantage

   Today’s episode discusses consistency and motivation and how we can experience this exponentially once we get started in fitness. The more progress you make, the more motivation you have. We simply need to channel it to the right places. Any movement also provides immediate results in making you feel better mentally, reducing stress and thus allowing you to sleep better. Consistency is key. Small gains over time. EXERCISES: A few links to some basic bodyweight exercises along with some variations to increase or decrease resistance.

   Episode 1: The Challenge That Started It All

   Here we go!  The First, Introductory episode of WTF Is A Dad Bod podcast! What better way to kick this off than talking about how it started for me. A friend and I were both in our late 30’s and had put on a few pounds.  Slacking off by not exercising and perhaps eating more than we should. Realizing that we were getting older and not feeling good about ourselves or how we looked, we had a choice to make. You either let yourself go and deal with the consequences later OR you start doing something. Hold each other accountable to the work AND get a reward from it! EXERCISES: A few links to some basic bodyweight exercises. The Push-Up (https://musclewiki.com/bodyweight/male/chest/push-up) The Squat (https://musclewiki.com/bodyweight/male/quads/bodyweight-squat) The Sit-Up (https://musclewiki.com/bodyweight/male/abdominals/bodyweight-situp) The Plank (https://musclewiki.com/bodyweight/male/abdominals/forearm-plank) Check Us Out on Instagram @wtfisadadbod (https://www.instagram.com/wtfisadadbod/) And X / Twitter @wtfisadadbod (https://twitter.com/WTFIsADadBod)
