I get by with a little help from my friends!

If you've noticed what I've been doing lately, it's really pushing my Instagram and Facebook Group.  With that, my request to you all, my friends, and many others who read these posts regularly is that if you can start using certain hashtags when you work out or prep nutritional meals.

The main ones that I've been using are as follows:

#dadbod

#mombod

#destroythedadbod

#destroythemombod

#fightthefluffy

#freethefluffy

#christfitness

I like these because it really exemplifies what I do on a regular basis, and that is to fight the dad bod.  Obviously your videos won't be long, but by using these, we can create a movement to better fight the parenting bods that we've been granted as a consequence of parenting.  We don't need the parenting bods, we need our bods.  Our kids, while I love them, do not define my body as a "dad bod."

I know that sometimes we do it to ourselves, eating chicken nuggets and mac & cheese because it's the easier meal to prepare for the screaming demons we've spawned into the world.  We also finish our kids meals for them so we don't waste food.  Our exercise consists of going up and down the stairs a hundred times because they want water, or a hug, or to be tucked in, or whatever.  Our parenting bods are a testament to our dedication to our kids, but they are not to be enshrined, they are meant for battle.

Friends, please use the hashtags often.  Share your stories so that we may support each other in our quest to destroy the dad bod.
