A Message From Hydrow

The Full Body Workout You've Been Missing 🚣 And You Only Need 20 Minutes

Your day is packed with meetings, shuttling kids, and trying to prep clean meals while hopefully squeezing in quality time with friends and family.

Somewhere in there, you've got 20 minutes.

With Hydrow, that's all you need for a full-body workout. And yes, it's cardio—but it’s also strength training, meditation, and adventure in one sleek machine.

But you're not just on a rower, by yourself, slogging through 500-meter intervals.

Hydrow brings immersive group workouts directly to your own home, led by Olympians and professional athletes. So you're not in your basement alone - you're rowing on a Scandinavian fjord or knocking out a 10-minute core circuit in County Wicklow, Ireland.

Find out why 90% of Hydrow users are still into it one year later. Save up to $1150 for a limited time and use code "GGR" for an additional $50 off.

ButcherBox Review

No disrespect to vegans and vegetarians, but I’m definitely on team #carnivore. Put a perfectly grilled NY strip (medium, please!) or a pair of boneless pork chops in front of me and I’m happier than a kid on Christmas.

Unfortunately, you can’t always trust the quality of the meat sitting on store shelves. Luckily, if you’re on the hunt for grass-finished beef, organic chicken, wild-caught seafood, and pasture-raised proteins, you don’t even need to leave your house to catch your prey.

In this ButcherBox review, I take the tail-to-snout approach to give a full evaluation of the most popular meat delivery service on the market. From the cost of building a custom box to the different cuts available to the perks you get with this subscription service, you’ll be armed with all the knowledge you need to decide if it’s time to make your carnivore dream come true.

The items on this list make stellar surprises for Father’s Day gifts, a birthday, or any other special occasion. Plus, we’ve included our favorite budget options for Dad, so you don’t have to spend a pretty penny to get a wonderful present.
