Father sheds four stone and transforms 'dad bod' to six pack by exercising with his newborn baby

A father overhauled his 'dad bod' by ditching four stone he piled on when his son was born, by exercising with his newborn baby. Sion Monty, 30, piled on four stone in just six months after Tedi was born, while he got to grips with being a dad at the same time as running three businesses.

Weighing nearly 16st, he vowed to lose the weight and involved his son in his exercise regime by doing daily runs, hill sprints and long walks with Tedi in his pram. He was mortified by his weight gain due to his line of work in the fitness arena - he owns a gym, a fitness supplement business and gymwear clothing line.

Thanks to a diet overhaul and exercising six days a week, he lost nearly four stone, buffed up and got superfit for his little lad and proud partner Kara Williams, 27. Now body-confident Sion, who used to refuse to take off his jumper in the gym, is competing in competitions and inspiring other 'dad bods' on social media.
