Most dads think their kids are the reason they can’t get in shape. They tell themselves they don’t have the time, the energy, or the freedom to focus on their own fitness. But what if that belief is completely backwards?
You’re training hard. You’re eating clean. You’re doing everything “right.” So why isn’t your body changing? The answer might not be your program, your genetics, or your discipline it could be chronic inflammation quietly sabotaging your results.
In this milestone 50th episode, Dane Palarino delivers something different - the Dad Bod Sculptor Manifesto. These 50 rules aren’t just about fitness; they’re about becoming the man your family, community, and future generations can look up to.

This is one of the rawest, realest, and most necessary episodes I’ve ever recorded. If you're a man who’s been silently battling with pornography telling yourself it’s “normal,” “harmless,” or “just a way to relax” this episode is going to challenge everything you’ve told yourself.
In this episode, Dane exposes the truth behind the "weekend sabotage" cycle that’s silently killing your transformation.

In this raw, vulnerable, and intensely personal episode, Dane opens up about a recent experience that shook him to his core: watching both his sons compete in the biggest Brazilian Jiu Jitsu tournament of the year.

What do you do when you’re running on fumes, haven’t eaten in hours, and suddenly a 45-minute gap opens up for you to hit the gym?
