Buff Dads Club

    THE ACCOUNTABILITY CLUB FOR DADS

    Accountability is the missing piece.

    You already know what to do. We make sure you keep doing it. Keep your plan, your gym and your apps. We add a score you can see, a race every week, and a division of other dads who notice whether you showed up.

    The Logbook and Standards Ring

    It sits on top of whatever you already do.

    Keep what you use. The Club scores the actions, not the apps.

    THE STANDARDS RING

    Know where you stand while you can still fix it.

    The Ring shows the points you've earned against the points you could have earned over your last 28 days. It moves every time you log, so you see a slide while it's starting, not a verdict after the damage is done.

    Why it works: Feedback you get in time to act on is the feedback that changes what you do.

    The Logbook and Standards Ring

    A RACE EVERY WEEK

    Seven days to the finish line, every week.

    Monday to Sunday, you race your division on points, scored on keeping the pledge you chose, not on how fit you are. One dad matched to you on form is your head-to-head. Finish near the top and you climb the leagues.

    Why it works: A deadline seven days away gets acted on. And it's harder to skip a day when one named dad is keeping score.

    THE CLUBHOUSE AND YOUR TEAM

    Other dads see whether you showed up.

    Your score sits on a board other dads can see. Your team needs your points every week. And the Clubhouse is a room full of men with jobs, kids and forty minutes, posting wins, asking questions and sharing the ugly truths.

    Why it works: A promise nobody sees is easy to break. One your division can see is not.

    THIRTY SECONDS A DAY

    Log your day from the sofa. Keep the chain unbroken.

    Sleep, food, alcohol and training: tick off the day in under thirty seconds. Every day you log adds a link to your chain, and your Record keeps every week, so a bad patch is seen against the good ones.

    Why it works: If it's quick, it gets done on the bad days too. And a long chain is a reason not to skip today.

    James Howes with his children

    Built by a dad who needed it first.

    I'm James, dad of three. When my second daughter was born I was 111kg and 29% body fat. I knew what to do; I just wasn't doing it. So I stripped it back to what survives real life: simple standards, a score you can see, competition and other dads. That became Buff Dads Club. I'm still in it. I log, I race, and I'm on the board like everyone else. 20kg+ lighter, and stronger than in my thirties.
