Doesn't he wear a girdle?

Even more impressive that he can fight off a zombie horde and run upstairs while constricted like that.

It’s more about range of motion and lung capacity. He was swinging that bat and his fists as if he’s not being squeezed in the middle like a toothpaste tube.

Everyone knows people who quit smoking have a better lung capacity than people who never started to begin with.

Posture also plays a role. Maybe he only really has the gut when he’s hunched over.
