I have a "dad bod", will I embarass myself if I go to a pool party like EBC/WR/etc?

[Wynncore]

i have a dad bod. If for example i wear a shirt, i definitely do not look fat.

however if I take it off, i am kinda on the "pudgy" side. I am however hit the gym so my chest sticks out more but i'm still definitely pudgy.

I've never been to a dayclub pool party before in vegas, but i'm planning to attend. Will I embarass myself having a dad bod at encore beach club? It seems like majority of people seem to be "fit/semi fit" or thin enough to not wear a shirt.

You'll be absolutely fine. There are all shapes and sizes lol don't let the promotional pictures fool you! just have fun!

I have never been to a day club but I would imagine there would be a wide variety of people. I can't imagine everyone is a stud sporting 6 pack abs. I say go and have fun and don't worry what people think. Go , have a drink and be friendly to everyone (maybe buy the woman next to you with the "Mom bod" a drink )

Lol... the dad bod is soooo in... my last trip out i smashed it with my dad bod... the key is confidence... have some confidence and go mingle... if you asked me... you have a choice when going to a pool party do you want to be:

Option 1 - a muscle bound roid gym junky relying on his body to do the talking
Option 2 - dad bod with confidence and social skills

Option 2 wins 100% of the time

Take it from me first hand... and some on the forum have seen me in action... i am proud of my dad bod... be proud of yours too!!!

I'm not ripped, but I'm not fat, overweight or obese at all. I wear a tanktop that says "DAD BOD". It's hilarious.

People at pool parties come in all shapes and sizes, and nobody cares.

u just gotta own it. all different kinds of tastes out there a lot of women don't like the gym rat, roid vibe anyway

I'm 46 and no Adonis at all. Just own it and you'll be fine.

[Wynncore]

haha thanks guys, looks like i'll be taking off my shirt after all lol

that or own up to my "dad bod". I thought that it was just a bunch of buff looking dudes and skiinny girls, so that's why i thought it would be kinda embarassing not having a t shirt there since i have a dad bod(i'm a bit on the puddy/husky side)

also, would you guys recommend going into the pool? i hear it gets digusting

thanks, yeah this is what i thought also

more ppl are too busy worried about themselves to care what others are doing. NOt to mention, there are a shitload of people that attend these dayclubs, so there will probably be a lot of ppl w/ different shapes and sizes.

I see what you are trying to get at, but it doesn't have to be either or. I'm much happier being the guy that looks like he lifts with high confidence and social skills, but hey to each their own.

There will definitely be a large amount of ripped dudes and toned girls.

There will be a decent amount of normalized bodies and a smaller mount of people just way out of shape.

Spend some $ and yolo it.

I have a hairy chest and I sport that shit like a champ. Get some cool sunglasses and just act genuine. I am in the same boat as you. You miss 100% of the shots you don't take so get those pick up lines ready.

I think the ripped guys are in the minority and 9 times out of 10 i see girls with "average" guys who they are having a laugh with over some tanned adonis decked out in Balenciaga and $1500 Zegna sunglasses
