As a father of 3 and a 5 year old I can feel the time for riding coming back. My advice would be to get to the gym, and focus on skills practice. The only riding related achievement I have from the period when my youngest was 0-3 was that I learned to wheelie and manual. And that boosted my riding to another level. I am back bettet than ever. At 36, I am still feeling like I am getting better and better each year. Gym doesn't have to be boring, get a good training program, set some goals, maybe get into street workout which is relatable to MTB because you can do tricks using your body weight and getting closer to making them is a great motivation to pump those muscles. Then you get on your bike, with hard muscles and you rip shit apart. That feeling of your torso being converyed into a hard plank, that becomes a second platform for the bike (after ground) - priceless.
All the best daddy!
