The "dad bod" has gained popularity as a relatable and attainable body type for men, especially fathers, who lack the time or energy to maintain a toned physique. While often embraced as a symbol of comfort or a badge of honor, my guest, Dane Palarino, opines that it is a destructive myth that normalizes unhealthy habits, poor health, and low energy.

Dane, the founder of Dad Bod Sculptors, shares his journey as a successful entrepreneur who faced a major turning point when he realized his health was deteriorating. He had to make a change, not just for himself, but for his family. 

He shares how accountability and the right mindset were crucial in his transformation and how finding a coach can provide the guidance and structure many men over 40 need to stay on track with their fitness goals. Dane explains how setting daily non-negotiables helped him become a better husband, father, and leader.
