Why Am I Going Bald?


There are many reasons for hair loss and baldness, from genetics to stress caused by illness.

    You may not know it or feel it, but you're losing hair all the time — an estimated 100 hairs from the 100,000 or so strands in your scalp every day.

Men's Health: Building a Healthy Diet


Though it's tempting to eat fast and consume foods that offer nothing but fat and excess calories, it will eventually catch up with you. Start planning your healthy diet now.

    These days, it's not always easy to follow a healthy diet. There are so many fast food and junk food options out there, a guy is tempted to just shrug, eat what he likes, and leave his health up to fate.

Keep Cholesterol in Check


Watching and controlling your cholesterol level is important to maintaining your health, and it's really not that hard.

    Controlling your cholesterol is key to preventing heart disease. For some, this can be accomplished through the same healthy diet and exercise plan that keeps a whole host of illnesses at bay. You might not love the idea of cutting back on cheeseburgers and steak sandwiches, but for men who plan to live a long and healthy life, it could be a sacrifice worth making.

How Not to Overtrain During Exercise


Are you training too hard and putting yourself at risk of injury? Here's how to tell if you're overdoing it with exercise.

    So you've finally gotten motivated to exercise, and now you're spending hours at the gym, sweating off the pounds and conditioning your body. But how are you feeling? If you're constantly sore, stiff, uncomfortable, and tired, you might be overtraining and injuring yourself.

Get Motivated With a Fitness Role Model


If you're having trouble staying motivated and sticking with your exercise routine, a role model may be just what you need.

    When starting a workout plan, it can be tough to stay motivated. At first, it's hard to see the benefits that you're getting from exercise, and the big benefits — better heart health, reduced risk of diabetes, weight loss — can take even more time to notice. You know a routine is good for you and that in the end it will all be worth it, but it's hard to stick to it when you can't see the results. Having a fitness role model can help keep you on track and make fitness a part of your life.
