Summary
This week, in Episode 276 of the Fit Father Project Podcast, Dr. Anthony Balduzzi kicks off a 3-part series on routines by zooming in on the one that sets the tone for everything: your morning. He shares what’s actually worked for him across different seasons of life—and why your routine should evolve as your life evolves. You’ll learn a simple “3-bucket” framework (physical, mental, spiritual), how to identify your non-negotiable anchors, and how to drop the “shoulds” that create friction.
