TRIGGER WARNING - SHOULD YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR BELLY?
This post is a call out to the men that like BEING ALIVE!
I am doing this, because this week I’ve received three separate messages from men saying:
‘𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘬 𝘺𝘰𝘶, 𝘉𝘉𝘈 𝘴𝘢𝘷𝘦𝘥 𝘮𝘺 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦!”
I’m going to explain something,
And then it’s up to you what you do with it.
The leading cause of death in Western men is Heart Disease
The first signs are often high blood pressure, which causes the heart to ‘overwork’

Imagine going on a camping trip with 10 of your boys
It’s freezing cold, but they all forget their tent,
So, 10 of you must pack into a one-man tent…
𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐛𝐞?
Well that is exactly what’s happening to your organs when you get a belly
Imagine each one of those men in the tent, is instead an organ in your abdomen
Your heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, etc
And because there’s no room in the tent / belly,
Everyone’s piled on top of each other,
No one can get any air, and everyone is stressed to sh1t!
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭
Well it almost like you trying to drive down a freeway, in first gear
The engine is redlining and screaming for you to change up
But you’re like, “𝘧*𝘤𝘬 𝘪𝘵, 𝘐 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘦𝘯𝘨𝘪𝘯𝘦”
Eventually, the engine blows up and you have a heart attack
𝐓𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐭, 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐂𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐬 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐁𝐁𝐀
He’ll tell you straight up, he’d near given up
𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐧𝐨𝐰, 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞
He’s got a beautiful, young family
And he decided he needed to be here for them!
What a wonderful turn around Chris Lewis – I'm proud AF!
I hope posting this inspires just ONE other man to start their journey…
