5 Workout Blunders Busy Dads Make (and How Fit Over 40 Fixes Them)

Let's face it, dads are heroes. They juggle work, family, and the relentless to-do list with superhuman strength (and maybe a little caffeine). But when it comes to fitness, even the mightiest dads can stumble. Don't worry, fellow fathers, Fit Over 40 is here to help you avoid these common workout blunders and get you back on the path to peak performance:
