For Your Future Kids

Good morning.

Here’s my view as I type this:

That’s my Ma sitting over there on the left.

I don’t talk too much about my Mom, & she is rarely in my content in comparison to my Dad, but I can tell you she’s one of the most influential figures in my life.

Mom’s are special. Magical.

I mean, you quite literally at one point in your life were curled up into a ball inside of your Mom.

Pretty weird.

But her decisions on what to eat and what to drink really for her entire life had an impact on who you are and who you become.

Your health is directly related to her health, even before you were born.

If you’re a woman reading this, one I thing I recommend is to get into the healthiest possible shape for your future kids.

It’s the most highly noble thing a woman can do for her kids prior to their birth.

As a man, I think the most important thing is to support your chosen woman on her fitness path.

I remember a friend of mine was dating a girl who had a vaping addiction. He would legit verbally destroy her whenever she did it, telling her how selfish it was.

And it is.

Is this the best way to influence the female psychology? I’m not so sure. I mean there’s been tons of studies about how women are much more likely to respond to positive reinforcement rather than negative criticism — Whereas men are the opposite.

However, I do know that this friend of mine and his girl are still together, the mother is no longer on the vape, and they now have a baby. A healthy baby.

On the positive reinforcement side, encouraging and rewarding healthy habits is good. When your woman works out, or chooses a healthy meal option, tell her how thankful you are to her for doing so.

This goes for both sexes by the way too. The health of the man’s sperm is directly correlated to the health of the man.

I’m not suggesting you scold your significant other every time they have a sip of alcohol or eat a cookie. But rather, make sure you’re aligned and on the same page about the way you treat your bodies in general from the beginning, or as soon as possible. Approach the conversation from love, rather than in a controlling way. Be gentle.

That’s all for this morning, I’m gonna go back to reading some philosophy.
