There’s no perfect age for a kid to start tackle football. But if your son is interested, let him play. Especially if you live in a community where football matters. When a sport carries weight in a town, it usually means good coaches, solid programs, and strong leadership. You want those kinds of people around your kid.
Don’t let your own fears about contact sports rob him of that opportunity.
My wife and I still get nervous about injuries, but the excitement after a big game always outweighs the worry. This season, our son is one of the smaller kids on his team, but he’s a strong tackler and always finds a way to make plays on defense. Watching your kid make a big stop or score a touchdown is hard to describe. It’s pure pride. I understand why some parents hesitate.
The injuries, the headlines, the what-ifs. But I say let them live. Injuries can happen in any sport, at any time. The lessons football teaches are worth it: toughness, strategy, grit, teamwork, discipline. All things that matter long after the pads come off.
The game is also safer than when we were kids. My son’s gear is light years ahead of what I wore twenty years ago. Coaches teach proper technique, emphasize hydration and rest, and create an environment where safety actually comes first. Football gives your kid the chance to compete, to push himself, and to be part of something bigger.
After practices, I ask what he learned, not just about football but about life. After games, we replay the highlights together. Those conversations have become one of my favorite parts of being a dad.
If I had let nerves get in the way, he would have missed out on lessons that can’t be taught anywhere else. Football is more than a collision sport. It’s a classroom for life. So if your son wants to play, sign him up. Starter or third-string, win or lose, he will come out tougher, more confident, and more prepared to tackle whatever comes next.
And if you have found other sports or activities that teach similar lessons, share them. I’m here to learn too. My daughter is right behind him.
Hunting for the perfect garage gym setup? Coop from Garage Gym Reviews shares his list of the Top 10 Home Gym Essentials, and it’s everything a dad needs to train smarter, not fancier.
Coop’s gear picks cut through the noise. No influencer flexing, no gimmicky machines. Just the tools that actually get used.
Why It’s Dad Day Approved
Real training, real life. Coop’s list nails that balance between budget, function, and the kind of gear that doesn’t need a tech manual. Whether you’ve got a full garage or a corner of the basement, this is how you build a setup that lasts.
Coop’s Top 10 Essentials (Quick Breakdown)
-
Barbell – The foundation of any good gym. Most efficient, most versatile, best ROI.
-
Weight Plates – Mandatory for your barbell, but also great for standalone exercises.
-
Squat Rack / Power Rack – Your gym’s central hub. Adds safety, versatility, and attachment options.
-
Weight Bench – Flat or adjustable, it’s your base for pressing, step-ups, and everything in between.
-
Adjustable Dumbbells – Save space, still get the range. Ideal for small setups.
-
Kettlebells – The ultimate hybrid tool. Strength, conditioning, and movement in one.
-
Pull-Up Bar or Gymnastics Rings – Cheap, effective, and endlessly useful.
-
Conditioning Device – Think rower, sled, or air bike — not the treadmill graveyard.
-
Proper Flooring – Horse stall mats > foam tiles. Period.
-
Leaf Blower – The secret weapon of garage gym dads. Clean space = consistent workouts.
Dad Day Takeaway
Forget $3,000 smart racks. The best home gyms are built one solid piece at a time, gear that’s used, not just owned.
Start simple: barbell, plates, and a rack. Add as you go. The goal isn’t to build the perfect gym, it’s to build the habit.

Happy Friday, guys. Hope the week was solid. I know I’ve mentioned it a few times, but our new site launches next week and it’s the real deal.
As Dad Day keeps growing, the community is what matters most to me. It’s been awesome connecting with so many of you in our Slack group and beyond. Swapping parenting wins, asking questions, and just being real.
That said, I could always use an extra hand. If you’re into community-building, conversation-starting, or just helping shape something meaningful, hit reply.
PS: If you’re new here, we mix it up on Fridays with a quick recap from the week and a few extra gems to head into the weekend right.

FROM THE TRENCHES
Topic: When Should Kids Defend Themselves?
One dad threw out a classic dilemma in our Slack group: “If your kid gets hit or pushed at school, do you tell them to fight back or walk away?”
Turns out, this one hit a nerve. The thread lit up with stories, scars, and some seriously thoughtful dad philosophy.
The vibe from the group? Most dads agreed: kids need to feel empowered to defend themselves. Not reckless, not aggressive, but confident that they don’t have to rely on someone else for protection.
A few standouts from the thread:
-
Let them figure it out: One dad shared how his father stopped his mom from stepping in when a bully tripped him on the playground. He got up, wrestled the kid down, and years later they’re still friends. “There’s something to be said for letting kids work it out in their own way,” he said.
-
Context matters: “If they’re attacked and can’t get away — defend yourself,” one dad wrote. “But if it’s just a shove, walk off. That’s a skill too.”
-
Zero tolerance ≠ zero logic: Many mentioned the tricky part…schools today often punish both kids equally. “You have to teach them to defend themselves just enough,” said another dad. “Otherwise, your kid can be the one who gets in trouble.”
-
The real lesson: A few dads told stories of being suspended for standing up for themselves and being taken out for ice cream or lunch by their proud dads afterward.
Bottom line: No dad’s rooting for playground brawls, but most agreed, there’s a line between turning the other cheek and teaching your kid to stand tall. Sometimes the best lesson is knowing when to fight back… and when to walk away.

If you could boil down your health into one number, it wouldn’t be your cholesterol. Or your blood sugar.
It’d be your VO₂ max — how much oxygen your body can use when you push it to the edge.
Dr. Peter Attia calls it the single best predictor of how long you’ll live. Better than any lab test. Because VO₂ max (and strength) can’t be gamed. It’s the sum of years of training, movement, and discipline, not a weekend juice cleanse.
Here’s the punch line:
The higher your VO₂ max, the lower your risk of dying early.
And the good news? You can build it. Consistent workouts, smart intensity, and a plan that keeps you in the top 25 percent for your age group will move the needle.
Don’t obsess over your current number. Watch your trajectory. If your VO₂ max is holding steady or rising as you age, you’re literally slowing the clock.
Quick takeaways:
-
VO₂ max beats cholesterol, blood pressure, and blood sugar as a predictor of lifespan.
-
You can’t fake it — it’s earned over time.
-
You can train for it at any age.
Watch Dr. Peter Attia explain why VO₂ max matters for longevity.

There are some moments in fatherhood that you know are going to be big—but then there are the ones that sneak up and absolutely wreck you.
We asked dads which milestone hit them the hardest and hundreds of you responded. The results paint a picture of those unexpected gut-punch moments that make you stop and realize, damn, time is flying.
The Numbers: What Hit Dads the Hardest?
- 57% – First day of school
- 21% – First time walking
- 8% – First heartbreak
- 8% – Other (unique milestones)
- 6% – Learning to drive
- 1% – Graduating high school
The First Goodbye: That First Day of School Hits Different
The overwhelming response? That first day of school. Nearly 6 in 10 dads said this was the moment that hit hardest.
And it makes sense. Unlike first steps—which happen gradually at home—the first day of school is a clean break. A before and after moment.
One day, they’re your little shadow, asking you for snacks every 15 minutes. The next, they’re shouldering a backpack that looks twice their size, walking into a building full of strangers. And you’re just… standing there.
The ride home feels a little quieter. The house suddenly feels too empty. And you realize—this is just the beginning of letting go, one small step at a time.
First Steps, Lasting Impact
For about 1 in 5 dads, it wasn’t school drop-off that hit hardest—it was those first wobbly steps.
There’s something about watching your kid physically move away from you for the first time that triggers something deep. It’s the moment when you realize:
“They’re not just growing—they’re growing away from me.”
You cheer them on, of course. You want them to keep moving forward. But at the same time, you realize that every milestone from here on out is another step toward independence.
The Unexpected Gut Punches
The “Other” category revealed some of the most powerful, unspoken milestones—the ones no one warns you about:
“The last time I walked my son to daycare, knowing the following fall he’d be taking a bus to kindergarten instead. We built a real friendship and some of our best memories on those walks.”
“First haircut. Hit me out of nowhere. Did not expect to get so emotional.”
“My daughter had a significant speech delay. The first clear ‘I love you’ hit hard.”
These are the quiet moments that blindside us. The ones that don’t come with a big announcement, but still mark a shift in fatherhood that you never saw coming.
The Later Years: Do We See It Coming?
Interestingly, the milestones that typically come later—first heartbreak (8%), learning to drive (6%), and high school graduation (1%)—scored much lower.
There could be two reasons for this:
- Fewer dads in the survey have kids that old yet.
- Maybe we have more time to prepare for these ones.
We know high school graduation is coming. We expect heartbreak. But that first bus ride to school? That first time they let go of your hand and run ahead? That’s the stuff that hits when you least expect it.
The Takeaway: Why These Moments Wreck Us
What’s clear is that we’re most vulnerable to the earliest transitions—the first real separations.
The first day of school, the first steps, the first haircut, the first time they don’t need you for something.
Maybe that’s why those first-day-of-school pictures hit so hard. It’s not just about them growing up—it’s about us learning to let go, one milestone at a time.
So if you’ve got one of these milestones coming up? Soak it in. Take the picture. Feel the feelings. Because the hard truth is, you don’t always realize it’s the last time until it’s already gone.
📕 DAD WISDOM
Be the Example
Last week we featured a quote from Joseph Joubert:
“Children need models rather than critics.”
It’s simple and spot on.
Our kids don’t need a TED Talk on effort. They need to see you stick with something hard.
They don’t need a lecture on patience. They need to watch you keep your cool when someone is driving slowly in the left lane on the way to school dropoff (looking at myself here).
They don’t need perfect advice. They need an imperfect dad who shows up anyway.
Because kids don’t listen half as well as they imitate. So if you want your kid to grow up kind, driven, curious, disciplined…
Don’t just tell them. Model it. Be the example they’ll replay long after you stop reminding them.

Ken Hoeve

Ken Hoeve, Colorado’s river-surfing, snow-shredding, all-seasons adventurer has built his life around two things: family and the great outdoors.
Known to many as a brand ambassador, TV host, professional paddler, and co-founder of outdoor company FLATED, Hoeve has turned his love for rivers and mountains into a parenting philosophy rooted in presence, play, and perspective.
When asked how fatherhood changed his adventurous lifestyle, Hoeve doesn’t hesitate:
“Adventure doesn’t end; it just takes a new shape.”
For this “Adventure Dad,” the challenge isn’t about finding time for family, it’s about bringing family into the adventure. In the Rockies, the river, the snow, and the road have all become classrooms for his kids.
“Bring your kids into your world, not the other way around. Let them see you love what you do and they’ll love who you are.”
Hoeve’s approach isn’t about perfect balance. It’s about integration. Early-morning ski laps, mid-day paddles, and family ranch trips aren’t escapes from fatherhood but expressions of it. “The outdoors gives us perspective,” he says. “When my kids see me chasing passion, they learn what it means to live fully.”

Dad Brain is Real
Forgetfulness? Mood swings? That’s not burnout, it’s biology.
According to research shared by Arnold’s Pump Club, becoming a dad literally reshapes your brain. First-time fathers show a small drop in gray matter in areas tied to empathy and social awareness; not a loss, but an upgrade.
Think of it like pruning a tree. Your brain trims the unnecessary stuff so it can focus on what matters most: your kid.
So if you’ve been feeling a little “different” lately, that’s not dad fog. That’s dad focus. Your brain’s rewiring itself for the most important job you’ll ever have.

Pressure is a Privilege
Since getting surgery a few days ago, I’ve been limited to short walks and laying low all weekend, consuming all the content. I heard a line yesterday that stuck.
“Pressure is a privilege.”
I don’t know about y’all, but lately, I’ve been feeling it. The pressure. Work, home, the constant juggle. And with baby number three on the way, that hum of “how the hell am I going to juggle all this?” has been a little louder than usual.
What stuck with me was the idea that pressure means we’re trusted. We’re doing something that matters enough to create weight.
And we’ve all felt it, because fatherhood is pressure. The kind that shows up in the middle of the night when a kid’s sick, or at 6 p.m. when everyone’s melting down and you’re already running on fumes.
So yeah, pressure’s coming. But maybe the right move isn’t to avoid it. Maybe it’s to nod, take a breath, and think, “bring it on.”

Mike Matheny, former MLB catcher, big-league manager, and dad of five, knows a thing or two about leadership. But the lessons he values most didn’t come from the dugout; they came from fatherhood.
Matheny treats parenting like coaching: with purpose, accountability, and love that shows up in action. In his book The Dad Coach, he writes, “The goal isn’t getting college scholarships. The goal is instilling character through sports to help kids become successful in anything they do.”
Even during his years managing the Cardinals and Royals, he made sure his kids knew that showing up for people, for commitments, for family, was the real win. “If I can teach them what it means to show up, give their best, and treat people right,” he says, “then I’ve done my job as a dad.”
Matheny reminds us that character trumps accolades and that the real lessons in life come from challenge, not comfort.

What’s Your VO2 Max, Bro?
Ever heard of VO2 max? It’s basically your body’s horsepower rating. VO2 max measures how much oxygen your body can use during intense exercise. The higher it is, the better your engine runs.
More oxygen = more endurance, better recovery, sharper brain, and yeah… a longer life.
Dr. Peter Attia calls VO2 max the single best predictor of how long you’ll live.
Why should you care?
Because that 5K time, that game of tag with your kids, that hike you almost bailed on; all of it gets easier when your VO2 max climbs.
If you want a real number, you’ve got to get lab-tested.
How to do it:
-
Google “VO2 max testing near me” and look for a sports performance lab or local university exercise physiology center.
-
You’ll wear a mask, run or bike, and they’ll push you until you hit your limit.
-
20 minutes later, you’ll know exactly how your engine stacks up and what to do to improve it.
THE MOVE
“How you handle frustration teaches your child how to handle life.”
This week’s focus: When irritation hits, take a breath before reacting. Let your child see what calm looks like under pressure.

DAD HUMOR
Becoming a dad is like being dropped into a video game without a tutorial. One minute you’re high-fiving the nurse, the next you’re staring at a 7-pound human thinking: So…what now?
I thought I was ready. I’d read the books, downloaded the baby tracker apps, even practiced swaddling a stuffed animal.
And yet, fatherhood still hit like a truck.
Here’s the survival guide I wish someone had handed me. Ten things I wish I knew as a first-time dad so you can skip some rookie mistakes and focus on what actually matters.
1. Sleep Deprivation Is a Superpower (If You Respect It)
Forget “tired.” This is zombie mode. The trick isn’t fighting it, it’s adapting.
- Take naps when you can.
- Swap night shifts with your partner.
- Lower expectations of productivity.
Sleep debt is real, but here’s the secret: your body adjusts. You’ll learn to function in 90-minute bursts like a Navy SEAL.
2. You Don’t Need All the Baby Gear
I blew hundreds on gadgets that now collect dust in the garage. The truth?
Babies need:
- A safe place to sleep.
- Milk.
- Diapers.
- You
3. Your Relationship Will Get Stress-Tested
No sugarcoating, parenting is hard on couples. The late nights, money stress, and endless to-do list will test your patience. But here’s the hack, fight together, not each other. Make time for small rituals: coffee together in the morning, a quick walk, even a 10-second hug before chaos begins.
4. Babies Don’t Care About Your Plans
Dinner reservations? Forget it. Long Saturday golf rounds? Maybe next year. Be flexible. When plans explode (and they will), laugh it off. Fatherhood is a masterclass in rolling with the punches.
5. Skin-to-Skin Isn’t Just for Moms
The fastest way to calm a crying newborn? Your chest. Shirt off, baby on. Science backs it: lowers stress for both of you, regulates the baby’s temperature, and builds trust. Just embrace it.
6. Diapers Are a Team Sport
You’re not “helping” when you change diapers. You’re parenting. Embrace the mess. Learn the quick-change technique. And stock wipes everywhere, car, living room, backpack.
7. Socials Will Make You Crazy
Google “rash on baby arm” at 2 a.m.? Congratulations, you now think your child has 47 rare diseases. Trust your pediatrician, not random forums.
8. Your Identity Will Shift (and That’s Good)
You’ll mourn your old life, late nights, spontaneous trips, freedom. That’s normal. But here’s the thing, fatherhood doesn’t shrink your world, it expands it. You’ll see life in widescreen.
9. Progress Over Perfection
You will mess up. Yell when you shouldn’t. Put the diaper on backward. Forget the wipes. Doesn’t matter. Kids don’t need perfection; they need presence. Show up again tomorrow. That’s what they’ll remember.
10. You’re Doing Better Than You Think
Every dad feels like he’s winging it. Truth, we all are. If you’re worried about being a good dad, that’s already proof you’re on the right track.
Welcome to the Brotherhood
Fatherhood is chaos, comedy, and the best adventure you’ll ever sign up for.
So here’s my advice, boiled down:
Fatherhood is chaos, comedy, and the best adventure you’ll ever sign up for.
- Hold your baby.
- Love your partner.
- Laugh at the mess.
You’ll never feel fully ready. But trust me, you’re more ready than you think.
