Summary

Strengthen your muscles and bond with your newborn! Redefine the meaning of dad bod with this fun book that shows you how to bring your baby along on your fitness journey with easy exercises and routines.

Stay fit without sacrificing time with your little one. Filled with 30 playful and effective exercises that you can do at home with a baby up to one year old, this guide makes it easy to include your infant in your workouts—and your baby will love the attention, movement, and stimulation, too!

Illustrations and step-by-step instructions demonstrate the practices, including lower-body, upper-body, core, and full-body moves:
  • Snuggle Squats
  • Overhead Bundle Press
  • Tiny Twists
  • Plank Peekaboo Shoulder Taps
  • Raspberry Knee Tucks
  • Babybell Swings
  • And many more!

Full routines, warm-up tips, and ideas for engaging your baby ensure you have everything you need to bulk up those biceps and augment those abs while also connecting and spending time with your child.

Don't sleep on your health! You want to be in tiptop shape for the toddler years—trust us.

ENTERTAIN WHILE YOU TRAIN: Featuring fresh twists on classic strength exercises, Dad Bod is packed with easy-to-follow fitness practices and ways to amuse your baby. Sing a song, make a funny face, lift them high, swing them low, or play peekaboo while working out to ensure your baby stays engaged and happy while you strengthen your bond and your bod.

GOOD FOR YOU AND BABY: We all know exercising improves our mental and physical health, which is so important for a new parent, but it's often the first thing to fall by the wayside when you have an infant at home. This playful exercise guide makes it easy and enjoyable to keep up with a fitness routine and to incorporate your baby while doing so—which is stimulating and fun for them and sets a great example of the importance of prioritizing your health and fitness, too!

SWEET DAD GIFT: At once funny and practical, with exercises so approachable they'll inspire you to "just do it," this is an ideal baby shower or Father's Day gift for a new dad.

Perfect for:
  • Dads of babies and toddlers
  • Expecting dads
  • At-home workouts for single parents or couples
  • Shoppers looking for a baby shower gift, Father's Day present, or stocking stuffer for new dads
