Stay Strong: Your Health Checklist for National Men’s Health Month
June 2 • 2025
June is National Men’s Health Month—a time to prioritize your well-being and make sure you’re taking the best care of yourself. Whether you’re in the best shape of your life or just starting your health journey, here’s a quick checklist to help you stay on track all month long (and beyond!)
Get Your Annual Checkup
Even if you feel great, annual checkups are essential. Regular visits with your doctor help catch potential health issues early, from high blood pressure to diabetes. Helping prevent you from experiencing life altering effects and ending up in the hospital.
Monitor Blood Pressure & Cholesterol
Heart disease is the #1 killer of men in the U.S., making it crucial to know your numbers. Keep tabs on your blood pressure and cholesterol levels to reduce the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and other serious conditions.
Eat Smart and Stay Active
Fuel your body with nutritious foods like lean proteins, vegetables, and whole grains. Combine that with daily movement—whether it’s weight training, a brisk walk, or a pick-up game with friends—to keep your energy levels up and your body strong.
Prioritize Sleep
Getting at least 7-8 hours of sleep each night improves cognitive function, mood, and overall health. Poor sleep can contribute to weight gain, heart disease, and mental health struggles, so make rest a priority. Struggling with sleep? We’ve got seven tips for you to get the quality sleep you deserve.
Take Care of Your Mental Health
Mental well-being is just as important as physical health. If you’re feeling stressed, anxious, or overwhelmed, talk it out with a friend, meditate, or spend time outdoors. Seeking professional support when needed is a sign of strength, not weakness.
Don’t Ignore Symptoms
