A huge percentage of chronic disease is preventable or significantly influenced by lifestyle, including heart disease. Type 2 diabetes, many cancers, obesity, hypertension, fatty liver disease.
And yet we keep waiting for the perfect time to start.
I'll start Monday
when work slows down.
After the holidays,
when I have more energy.
Your health is being built by what you do. Repeatedly, not what you intend to do. SOMEDAY
You don't need to eat perfectly.
You don't need to train seven days a week. You don't need to give up everything you enjoy
But you do need to move.
You do need to eat enough protein. And produce;
you do need to build muscle.
You do need to prioritize sleep.
You do need to weigh your body.
You and weight do need to stop treating your health like something you'll deal with later
You don't get to choose every health outcome, but you have far more influence than you think
We can't control every disease,
but we can't control a lot of the risk
