 Being out of shape passes to your children, for sure. What I mean by epigenic is not just the genes you are born with, but the current state of your health, that conception, and birth really matters. Don't curse your children. Also, if you have shitty habits, children only learn through emulation, not through teaching. So at some point in your life, men, you gotta add 30 pounds of muscle and you gotta cut the fat. Men, in general, don't have your waist ever, much more than 31 to 35.
