Ever wondered why men’s health needs more attention? Consider this: Men have a 41% higher mortality rate than women. Suicide is the leading cause of death for men under 45..  41.6% of men over the age of 20 in the US are obese. It’s International Men’s Health Week this week, but what does that really mean? We’ll tell you what it doesn’t mean. Talking about going to the gym, making a smoothie, popping some painkillers for that shoulder injury you’ve had for a bit too long… It’s about prevention, making sustainable changes and forming new habits to improve your life. No, you don’t need to become Giga Chad, podcast bro Superman overnight (if you want to, we’ll cheer on from the sidelines though). It’s about those small, daily wins – getting up 30 mins earlier to walk to work instead of driving, cooking dinner with your partner instead of sitting on the sofa individually scrolling while waiting for Uber Eats, taking the stairs instead of the escalator, skipping the beer for a soda water once or twice a week, spending 20 minutes reading before bed instead of rewatching that funny episode of whatever sitcom you’re binge-watching now. And no, don’t tackle everything at once. Start with one aspect of your life that needs the most attention. The rest will follow. As for which aspect to figure out and choose? We’ve sorted that for you. Meet The Wheel of Life: six important facets of life that, when optimized individually, create a balanced and fulfilling life. Which will you be taking action on this week? #MensHealthWeek #Pitstop #HealthyHabits #LifeBalance
