The star QB recently explained his reason for keeping his body the way that it is, telling seven-time Super Bowl winner\u00a0Tom Brady<\/a>\u00a0his oblique muscles are what\u2019s important to him as he wants to be able to rotate them at an optimal level to throw passes.<\/p>\n \u201cI use those hips and that oblique muscle to really rotate through there,\u201d\u00a0<\/em>he said in quotes transcribed by\u00a0E! News<\/a>.\u00a0\u201cThe people who have seen the dad bod, that\u2019s for a reason \u2014 that\u2019s the obliques.
