A dad arguing with his dad bod in the cracks of the day

Naptime Gains is written by a dad — not a coach, not a trainer, just someone who used to have time to lift and now has a kid, a job, and a dad bod he's slowly arguing with. This is where I write down what actually works in that reality.

The whole site lives in one constraint: no time and no gym. Everything here is something I've actually tried.

One rule: this is experience, not medical advice. I'm not a doctor, physiotherapist, or certified trainer — just a dad sharing what worked for him. If something hurts, or you're coming back from an injury, talk to a professional first.

No newsletter funnel, no transformation challenge, no supplement codes. Just notes from the floor, updated a little at a time.

No-gym workouts

Short routines you can do on a living-room floor while the baby naps — no coach-speak, no six-week transformation promises.

Gear that earns its space

The few bits of kit worth keeping in a small flat, tested by someone who doesn't have a garage gym.

Habits on no sleep

What actually keeps it going between school runs and the twenty free minutes that show up at random.
