You learn more from failure than from success.Every time. Especially when you’re four years old… and trying to jump on a box 😅My son went for it.Missed.Fell.Banged his head.Cried.I scooped him up, held him close — not to stop the pain, but to make sure he felt safe and loved. I reminded him he could try again. That he was brave. That I believed in him 💪❤️And here’s the thing… I messed up too.I didn’t check the space properly.I should’ve.That was my mistake. And it taught me something too.So later, we changed the room.Moved things.Adjusted the environment.We made it safer. We made it better.And he tried again.This time…He nailed it 🙌🔥He faced what scared him — and did it anyway.He failed, felt it all, and got back up.And I didn’t need to be perfect — I just needed to show up, be honest, be there.That’s life. That’s parenting.You fall. You get hurt. You grow. You land it next time.Let them fail sometimes — but always be their soft place to land.And when you fail, own it. Learn from it. Try again.We’re all just figuring it out, one box jump at a time ❤️‍🩹🧠#ParentingTruths #FailForward #Resilience #GrowthMindset #LittleWinsBigLessons #LifeIsLearning by @superdad.damo

I’m the best damn dad coach in the world….Might sound a little arrogant, but fuck it—I truly believe it.I love helping men improve their lives, from losing weight to having more energy to play with their kids. Coaching fathers to become better for their families is the most rewarding job in the world.DM “Alpha” to join my SuperDad gang.#DadLife #SuperDad #AlphaMindset #Fatherhood #DadGoals #FamilyFirst #MensHealth #BeYourBest #FatherhoodGoals #dadcoach by @superdad.damo

We both had problems with alcohol…Here’s the truth.A lot of men have an unhealthy relationship with alcohol.That doesn’t automatically make you an alcoholic.But if drinking is costing you your energy, your discipline, your patience, your health, or your presence, then it’s affecting your performance.As a man, that’s a problem.It shows up everywhere.Your family.Your work.Your relationship.Your fatherhood.You might think you’re only paying the price for a few hours on a Friday or Saturday night.You’re not.You’re paying for it all week.The goal isn’t necessarily for every man to stop drinking.The goal is to be in control of it, instead of letting it control you.Your family deserves the best version of you.So do you.#BuiltForMore #MensHealth #Fatherhood #MensMentalHealth #LeadByExample by @superdad.damo

NEW PROGRAM. SEPTEMBER 2026.I’ve helped thousands of men lose weight, build muscle and completely change their lives.But this programme isn’t for everyone.I’m not looking for men who want to be in shape three times a year.I’m looking for men who are done negotiating with themselves.Men who keep promises.Men who want to lead their family from the front.Men who understand that discipline beats motivation every single time.This isn’t another fat loss challenge.It’s about becoming the man your wife respects, your children look up to, and the man in the mirror is proud of.If that sounds like you…September is your opportunity.Limited spaces.#BuiltForMore #MensHealth #Fathers #LeadByExample #fatloss by @superdad.damo

MEN. YOUR BODY MATTERS.Let’s stop pretending it doesn’t.Being fit is better than being unfit.Being strong is better than being weak.Having energy is better than living exhausted.That’s not fat-shaming.That’s reality.Your children are watching every decision you make.They watch what you eat.They watch whether you move.They watch whether you keep your word.They watch how you deal with discomfort.You are teaching them what “normal” looks like every single day.The statistics are clear. Children are far more likely to adopt the habits of the environment they grow up in. Your lifestyle becomes their blueprint.So stop buying into the lie that once you’re 40, letting yourself go is just part of life.It isn’t.Your health isn’t just about you anymore.Every workout.Every healthy meal.Every early night.Every promise you keep to yourself.Your children are watching.The greatest gift you can give them isn’t a bigger inheritance.It’s an example worth following.Be the standard. Not the excuse.#BuiltForMore #Fatherhood #LeadByExample #MensHealth #raisethestandard by @superdad.damo

NO NEGOTIATIONS WORKSHOPSaturday 1st August | 5:00 AMOur second No Negotiations Workshop is here.This isn’t a fitness class.It’s a room full of men choosing discipline over excuses, action over comfort, and standards over shortcuts.If you’re a man who wants more from life…If training is your outlet…If you want to surround yourself with men who push each other to become better…This is where you belong.Expect challenging team workouts, powerful conversations, accountability, and an environment that reminds you exactly what you’re capable of.This workshop isn’t about proving you’re the fittest in the room.It’s about proving you’re the man who keeps turning up.The alarm goes off at 5:00 AM.The excuses will wake up too.The only question is…Which one wins?Saturday 1st August5:00 AMLimited spaces available.No Negotiations.Just Action.#health #fatherhood #fitness by @superdad.damo

My daughter learnt a valuable lesson today🥹Her first gymnastics competition… she was so excited to take part but then the nerves took the better of her.Then the pressure from the large crowd of parents / coaches watching in silence…it was a lot!!!!She cried… felt the emotions… took a deep breath and decided committed to herself! She showed up for the most important person in the room… herself 💕And bagged a Gold award 🏆 by @superdad.damo

11 years today. R.I.P. Papa Scannell. ❤️Shout out to the original Scannell.The man who raised us.The man who always put his family before himself.The man who taught us what it really meant to be a man, not just through words, but through actions.A white, ginger-haired Irish man raising three mixed-race kids on his own. It couldn’t have been easy, especially in those days. But you never let us feel that. You just got on with it. You loved us, protected us, and gave us everything you could.The lessons you embedded in us gave us foundations that still hold us up today. They shaped the men we’ve become, the fathers we’re striving to be, and the way we raise our own families.I only wish you could see the family now. We’re thriving. Your children, your grandchildren, everything we’re building. A huge part of that is because of the values you lived by and passed on to us.You’re missed every single day, but your influence never left. Your name lives on through all of us, and we’ll do everything we can to make you proud.Rest easy, Dad. 🤍#family #dad by @superdad.damo
