It’s all too easy to prioritize other
aspects of your life but make sure
you put effort into staying connected
with friends – for your own benefit
but also theirs too.

MOVE
The best thing you can do for your
health is to stay active. How you
MOVE is up to you. Whether it’s
a work out one day, a quick jog at
lunchtime the next, an hour at the
ping-pong table, or an epic bike
ride, no MOVE is too big or small.

TA L K A BO U T T H E BIG
STUFF IN LIFE
The break up of a relationship,
loss of a job, financial trouble or
becoming a father are big moments
in a man’s life that happen to many
men. It’s important to recognize
the impact of these and know
it’s ok to talk about how you’re
coping with the change.

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER
Family history is one of
the most powerful tools to
understanding your health.
Family history affects your
level of risk for cancer, diabetes,
heart disease and stroke,
among other illnesses.
It all starts with a conversation;
talk to your family and take
note of illnesses that a direct
relative has experienced.
Be sure to learn about relatives
that are deceased as well.

IF YOU NOTICE
SOMETHING,
DO SOMETHING
You know your body better
than anyone. If you notice
something isn’t feeling right,
don’t put it off and hope that
it goes away, go to the Doctor
and get it checked out.
Early detection is the most
important factor in treating
the big issues.
