Health & Fitness: What Is 'Dadbod' - And Is It Healthy?


Have you heard of “Dadbod” yet?
It’s a relatively new term used to describe a not-so-new body type, and the Internet is now a-frenzy. Someone who has a Dadbod is someone who was probably a pretty good athlete back in school, but then maybe let himself go as he entered adulthood (slowed metabolism, less exercise, and maybe too many calories from beer). No six-packs here.
As Mackenzie Pearson of The Odyssey, who’s responsible for the recent popularity of the term, puts it: The Dadbod says, “I go to the gym occasionally, but I also drink heavily on the weekends and enjoy eating eight slices of pizza at a time."
