Fitness for Dads - Fixing Your Posture
We stand in line at the ATM, or while talking to the other dads at our kid’s soccer game or when we’re sitting at our desk in the office. No matter where we are, our posture is terrible!
Posture is one of those things that, if not paid any attention to, can really start to affect our health later on in life. Poor posture can be attributed mainly to what we do everyday and living what I like to call an “anterior dominant” life.

Kids - How Many Are Too Many?
This article written by Contributing Writer Matt Pfingsten.
I live in Southern California. There are a LOT of people here, and the population grows exponentially every year. Traffic worsens, smog thickens and violence increases. Why don’t I just come right out and say it? It is packed full-o-people. One would be hard-pressed [...]

Fitness for Dads - Part 3: Chin-Ups
Those darn monkey bars were never my friend when I was a kid. I had friends who could swing off them, hang upside down on them, I even know one kid that could do a 1-arm handstand on them. Me? Not a chance. I could barely get through 2 rungs before my grip would give out and I would come crashing down to the sand.

Sailing on America’s Tall Ship - An Adventure of a Lifetime
Unlike my friends who spent the summer before sophomore year working and partying, I shipped off on a summer tour of duty. I flew with my fellow swabs in the cargo bay of a C130 airplane across the Atlantic to Lisbon, Portugal.

10 Ways to Pull Off the Perfect Disagreement
Are you the type of person who can argue and disagree with others? Or, do you let people walk all over you? There are many who avoid confrontation at all costs, while others are more than willing to jump in and argue away. Some are even uncomfortable disagreeing with their spouse, while others may have a problem challenging any type of authority.

Fitness for Dads - Getting in Shape: Part 1
It’s all happened to us before. It’s late at night. You just get home from one of those crazy parties with the in-laws. The kids are asleep in the back (for me, all 4 of them are asleep) and you don’t want to wake them. So now, you have the task of picking them up out of their seats, laying their heavy heads on your shoulder and carrying them from the car into bed. Sound familiar? I do it almost every time we have a family get together.

A Father’s Pride: Helping His Son Become a Star
Most dads dream about his little boy playing college football or being a major league baseball player. It is in the Dad DNA. But mostly, it is a dream so that we can keep our mind from wandering during all those never ending T-Ball games. I lived that dream and I thought my, er, our story would be helpful to others.

Transition - Five Songs that Make Me Think
I’ve been going through a transition in my life for a few months now. It started a couple weeks after we brought our newest daughter Caitlin home from the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit after a rough start to her life. By all accounts, the experience of seeing her fight through such a tough situation had both a saddening and inspirational affect on me.

Top 10 Reasons Why Dads are Hotter than Guys Without Kids
The other day I was eating lunch with my daughter Frankie. We were enjoying cream cheese and jelly sandwiches. As meals sometimes go in my house, it turned into a battle of wits to see who could trick the other into taking a bite. After a mad flurry of bites mixed with screams and giggles, I ended up with cream cheese smeared on my face and strawberry preserves matted into my hair. It was HOT!

Why Do People Automatically Think the Worst?
I’ve always had a hard time dealing with people who immediately think the worst about others. These are the people who see, hear or read what you say and automatically start looking for the flaws, faults or folly of you or your opinion. Nothing seems to make people like this happy, except for tearing others down
