I’m Ben Ford and welcome to Super Fit Dad.
Super Fit Dad was created to help time-poor Dads get the best bang-for-their-buck when it comes to fitness, nutrition, personal development and finances.
The genesis for the site was my own struggles in finding time & motivation to train after Super Fit Kid arrived. As a seasoned marathon runner, gym junkie and newbie Crossift enthusiast this was both out of character & unsettling. I also realised that if new Fatherhood was affecting me in this way, it was probably affecting tons of other Dads too.
I blog as often as I can & also send out my ‘Weekend Workouts’ at the end of each week, featuring two short, sharp home workouts to keep you in shape throughout the weekend.
