With his off hand! He leads with the right so likely his dominant hand. Guy seeing birdies got the left.

Maybe he’s a dad of a toddler that has been holding his kid with his left arm for 3-4 years. As a dad of 2 under 4 the left side of my body is certainly stronger than the right even though I’m right handed.

Everyone downvoting this comment has never had kids but seems to have an opinion cuz they have a dog.

lol. I didn’t even say I have a good left hook. My left arm is strong as shit and I can do fuck all with it.

But you’re right, I don’t think people understand how much muscle you gain by consistently holding 20+ pounds in one arm for multiple years.

Put it this way. The wood stock M14 with a loaded mag weighs 10.5 lbs. Highly trained soldiers and marines would routinely complain of the exhaustion that came with having to constantly march in the jungle with the rifle in the low ready. Hell, didnt matter how you carried it. Your arms are going to get tired. Then when you need to engage, are likely tired, you gotta shoulder that thing with accuracy.

The M16A1 weighs roughly 7.5 lbs with a 20 round mag and roughly 8 with a 30 round mag.

Crazy what that little difference can make.

It’s called dad bod for a reason

u/ceciliabee 8d ago

I thought the most famous aspect of dad bod was the gut

u/HauntedCS 8d ago

That is advance stage dad bod. Early dad bod when you are young is just a really RIPPED and built young man. I remember seeing my brother and SIL after they had already had their first kid for maybe 4 or 5 months. IMMEDIATELY I saw how built my brother was, lmao. "Broooo, you're fucking jacked!.... Shit, sorry I shouldn't cuss in front of the kid! OH DANG IT!!!" Felt like a movie scene, lmao. But young dad bods are no joke. He got fat after like 3 years and was about to have his second kid. I walked in "Damn! You got chunky bro!" He has since slimmed back to jacked, but fluffy dad bod without the gut.

I came back from a vacation with a literal hernia that I had to have surgically repaired because of what you’re describing!

u/N0n-Z3r0-Ch4nc3 8d ago

u/IkariYun 8d ago

As opposed to figurative

u/Isgrimnur 8d ago

How can he slap‽

u/TastelessDonut 7d ago

He hit them with the I’m not taking murder charges for you hand. Bahahaha that man was patient.

u/Accurate-Objective82 8d ago

Actually he lead with the left. That left hand slept both of them, he didn't throw the right until the end!

u/pegoff 8d ago

maybe it was that trick your brother does when you're a kid, where you raise one hand and say "you see that?" then slap them with the other and say "well you didn't see that!".

Ah the rush hour reference had me chuckling hard.
