From Exhausted to Energized: A Dad's Guide to Beating the 3 PM Crash

It’s 3 PM. Your energy is gone, your focus is shot, and you still have 4 hours of work — plus the evening dad shift ahead.

Sound familiar?

Why Dads Crash Hard

The 3 PM slump hits harder when your nights are broken, your mornings are chaotic, and your breakfast was a leftover pancake from your kid’s plate.

Energy doesn’t just show up — it’s built in the morning and sustained through smart routines.

The Root Causes:

• Blood sugar crashes from carb-heavy breakfasts

• Dehydration from coffee overload

• Mental fatigue from poor sleep and no recovery

• Lack of nutrient support for brain and body

Fix the Morning, Fix the Crash

Morning Drive was designed to give you a foundational advantage:

• Electrolytes: replenish hydration first thing

• Creatine + collagen: support recovery and tissue repair

• Vitamins + minerals: fuel metabolic function

• Nootropics: enhance mental clarity and fight brain fog

No More Caffeine Dependence

Instead of reaching for your third coffee or an energy drink, imagine having sustained, steady energy — without the crash, the jitters, or the regret.

Simple Dad Wins:

• Drink a full glass of water + Morning Drive upon waking

• Eat a protein-based breakfast (eggs > cereal)

• Move for 5-10 minutes after lunch

• Protect your sleep like it’s your next promotion

When you fuel right in the morning, you don’t just survive the afternoon — you dominate it.
