Wait – the Dad Bod? Yep, it’s apparently a thing.
According to a blog post by college student Mackenzie Pearson that has since gone viral, the Dad Bod is the latest trend for the male physique.
She explains:
The dad bod is a nice balance between a beer gut and working out. The dad bod 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.” It’s not an overweight guy, but it isn’t one with washboard abs, either.
Fraternity boys everywhere seem to be rejoicing. Turns out skipping the gym for a few brews after class turned out to be in their favor. The concept seems to be an immediate hit on instagram – Collegedadbods has now become a full-fledged homage to regular guys.
Could the “Mom Bod” be next? We’ll just have to wait and see… -Mandi@1063RL
