The Well Dad

 

A brief pause from our Back to Basics series with a special Father's Day edit. A wellness-forward guide to better energy, performance, recovery, and longevity — here are some of my favorite tools, habits, and resources to support the men we love.

 

1. Garmin MARQ Athlete Gen 2

For the dad who loves data — and deserves the best. The MARQ Athlete Gen 2 is Garmin's most premium performance watch, combining luxury materials with best-in-class health and fitness tracking. It monitors sleep, recovery, HRV, training readiness, heart rate, activity, and performance metrics to help optimize training and overall health.


 

2. Wellbel Men's Hair Supplement

A targeted supplement designed to support stronger, fuller, healthier-looking hair by nourishing follicles from within and promoting long-term scalp health. I've been taking the women's version of this for several months and my hair feels healthier and thicker.


 

3. Corpus Cedar Flora Natural Deodorant Stick

An elevated aluminum-free deodorant made with naturally derived enzymes and plant extracts to neutralize odor. Because it's aluminum-free, it's a deodorant rather than an antiperspirant — it won't prevent sweating, but it does effectively eliminate odor.

The sandalwood, cedarwood, and amber scent smells like a luxury fragrance, and the water-based formula glides on smoothly, dries clear, and leaves no residue on skin or clothing.


 

4. Haus Ritual Day Package at Wellhaus Club

Gift dad a day at Wellhaus Club in Buckhead with a Haus Ritual Day Package — includes oxygen therapy, compression, red light, cold plunge, and sauna.

Use code JESSBEWELL79 for an exclusive $79 discounted rate.


 

5. Ursa Major Men's Shave Set

An elevated grooming upgrade featuring two clean, effective formulas that support healthy skin and a smooth shave. The non-lathering, conditioning shave cream hugs skin close, providing a smooth, easy glide and minimizing the risk of nicks, razor burn, and visible redness. The lightweight gel moisturizer delivers refreshing post-shave hydration without heaviness or shine.


 

6. Thorne Creatine

Creatine is one of the most researched and effective supplements for supporting strength, power, muscle recovery, and cognitive performance — and it's beneficial for almost anyone looking to support overall health and performance. Thorne uses high-quality creatine monohydrate with rigorous third-party testing and no unnecessary fillers.

7. BodyHealth Perfect Aminos Tablets

A daily supplement in our house that delivers essential amino acids in an optimal ratio for up to 99% utilization, supporting protein synthesis without added calories or breaking a fast. It's rapidly absorbed in approximately 23-30 minutes — a great addition to any performance routine.


 

8. Rhone Reign Tee

One of my husband's favorite workout shirts. It's the perfect balance of softness, performance, and versatility — moisture-wicking, UPF 50+ protection, anti-odor technology, and enough stretch for lifting, running, HIIT, or everyday wear.


 

9. Rhone 7" Pursuit Short Lined

My husband's favorite workout shorts. Comfortable, functional, and built to perform. The lightweight, moisture-wicking fabric that keeps you cool through workouts. The four-way stretch material moves with you, and the 7-inch inseam is the perfect fit that's athletic without being too short.


 

10. Function Health

One of the most valuable investments in proactive health. Function Health provides access to 100+ lab markers to identify potential issues and track key biomarkers over time.

An annual membership at $365 includes comprehensive annual bloodwork and urinalysis, mid-year bloodwork, and clinician insights with food and supplement recommendations. Additional tests are available a la carte — Lyme, multi-cancer detection, celiac, allergies, food sensitivities, PFAS, and more.

Just download the Function app, sign up, and schedule your first appointment at any Quest Diagnostics location near you.

Use code JCROCKER15 for a discount.


 

11. Prima Protein Bars

One of the cleanest high-protein bars I've found — for those who tolerate whey protein. Each bar delivers 21g of protein from a blend of 100% grass-fed bovine collagen peptides and grass-fed whey protein concentrate, along with whole-food ingredients. What sets these apart is that they don’t contain seed oils, sugar alcohols, artificial sweeteners, or synthetic ingredients. Made with just 10 real-food ingredients, they're a convenient, satisfying snack that delivers quality protein and healthy fats — and actually tastes good. A great option for travel, busy days, or post-workout fuel.

12. Wims Pocket Tonic Unflavored

For the dad who is cutting back on alcohol or looking for an alternative while still enjoying a buzz. Wims Pocket-Tonic is a portable hemp-derived THC + CBD drink mixer you can add to any beverage. Each pouch contains 4mg THC and 4mg CBD microdose for a light buzz without the hangover.


 

13. Outlive: The Science and Art of Longevity by Peter Attia MD

One of the most impactful books on longevity, prevention, and healthy aging. Attia presents a compelling framework for extending not just our lifespan, but our healthspan—the years we spend maintaining strong physical function, cognitive clarity, and overall quality of life as we age. Both my husband and my dad loved it, and I’m currently reading it. A must-read for anyone interested in improving long-term health and well-being.


 

14. Vio2 Mouth Tape

A simple wellness upgrade with a big impact—and one I forgot to include in my Back to Basics Sleep edit because I haven’t been as consistent with it lately.

Mouth taping encourages nasal breathing during sleep. Your nose naturally helps filter, warm, and humidify the air you breathe, and some research suggests that promoting nasal breathing may help reduce snoring and support better sleep quality in certain people.

My husband and I don’t use it every night, but when we do, we both feel like it helps and wake up feeling well-rested the next morning.

Our favorite is VIO2 because of its comfortable partial-coverage design and clean materials: a hypoallergenic medical-grade adhesive, breathable cotton fabric, and no PFAS, latex, or unnecessary additives.
