From your moniker, we can tell one of the reasons for your pot belly. Stop drinking too much, get ur lazy ass up and hit the gym. Health is wealth.

And women shouldn't exercise? You lazy girls need to do something about these horrible stretch marks aand cellulites that is common with naija babes.

Too much beer, bad diet, lack of exercise

Do you exercise? I mean running for more than 25 mins or some HIIT training. It's so difficult to see a naija babe working out.

They come to the gym to pass time or to check out the guys. You girls need the gym more than the guys. Almost all the girls are out of shape or with oversized buttocks, loose laps and love handles. Abeg, make una see una mates for south Africa,kenya or even Ghana.

You lots want the best but you aren't even manageable.

I was in a pool recently and I noticed that all the girls with stretch marks and cellulites were Nigerians. Haba.

Plzzzz, not all of us are gold diggers. Not all ladies believe in a man's wealth. What happened to my own brain and hands?
I cannot marry a rich man with a pot belly. Are there no rich men who are physically fit? Why should i settle for less when i myself go on so much dieting to stay fit?
Physically fit men will also perform their 'manly duty' (u know what i mean) better. So why marry a rich man who cannot satisfy u?

Surprisingly,its so hard to see a fit naija girl. I mean a girl who works out to have firm body with no stretch marks , cellulites etc.

You girls should check yourselves out first and thank us for ever dating you.

In my 7 years of visiting the gym, I have not seen a fit naija girl . Abi fitness Na for men only. I'm surprised a naija girl will ever open a thread about fitness.

Yes, many Nigerian women develop a pot belly stomach too as soon as they start getting pregnant and giving birth. A good reason for that.

"In Donald's voice" Wrong! A majority of Nigerian women have pot bellies before getting married.

Beer

Yea...beer plus heavy breakfast plus constant driving and late supper. Nigerian food is contributing to this and the fact you have to goto work every morning and come back late night. Solution, drop the car and trek anywhere trekable, but make them no sack u for work for coming late. Recession no dey smile
Re: Why Do Most Nigerian Men Develop A Pot Belly Stomach So Early? by wolexy2020(m): 4:48am On Oct 20, 2016
Everyone has a freewill in expressing how they feel. The major contributing factor is malnutrition right from childhood. Majority of parents feed their kids with too much carbohydrates when they were little... Garri , rice , Eba with absence of macro nutrients. Lifestyle , illiteracy, poverty are all contributing factors to this predicament. Even the time we eat.A large percentage of Americans are obese with potbelly and you won't be surprise to see XXL underwear for men labeled as L. In your observation, you forgot to consider that people has different lifestyles. For example a man from a poor gets a job in Ikeja, but lives in Ogun state. Sleeps late and for fewer hours too, eats late and no time for proper digestion. He rarely sees his parents talk more of having time for the gym. He will develop pot belly in rapid time. So you see, this is the world we all agree to live in ....

Well u are wrong. It's not possible for pot belly to be hereditary. No scientific or medical reason or condition like that.
says who?

Pot bellies have, for generations, been associated with excessive intake of beer and other alcoholic drinks. However, experts have shed light on this, saying that pot belly is a hereditary problem which, when given the right environment, manifests in a man.


Studies have shown that a pot belly surfaces due to four reasons — genetics, food, stress and hormones.

What i don't really understand is why you find many Nigerian men with protruding stomachs, the most annoying part is seeing young men who are just in their thirties and some not even yet married with such protruding bellies. Do you guys get pregnant and deliver babies too? I mean how hard is it to go to the gym regularly and ensure you keep fit?
Some stark lazy ones, once they just get married, they start ordering their wives to pound yam for them every night, eating and boozing carelessly without control.

I am not excusing our women on this too, all am saying is that women have good reasons why they loose their shape after marriage, but men have no goddamn excuse.
wot of u gals too

Actually some medical conditions can give someone 'pot belly'. For example, some people with sickle cell anaemia with have naturally protruding abdomen

Oh plssssssss just hit the gym and stop being lazy!

You can find a fit girl without stretchmarks as well as you can find a fit girl WITH stretchmarks. Stretchmarks occur when the skin stretches! This happens when you lose weight or gain weight suddenly. Most girls develop it during puberty around their breast, ass and thighs because their skin stretches and MEN can also get it. Stretchmarks isn't an attribute for women only but for MEN and WOMEN, so stop shouting women and Stretchmarks blablabla, like seriously
Men can develop stretchmarks too. This has nothing to being fit undecided

There is nothing any brother with six packs can do that i cannot do better", i once had a swimming competition with my "six packs guys" and i won with my potbelly and since then they nicknamed me "human submarine", so you see sweetheart, the fact that a guy looks like "robocop' doesnt make me healthier than the chubby guy angry angry


Don't let your swimming capabilities confuse you. Whales are covered in fat yet they swim very fast.

I can assure you it'd be a different story when you try jogging/running. I don't mean your normal threadmill exercise.

If you want to test yourself, try running round a standard stadium track 6 times. Try achieving that within 11 mins. That will expose your lack of core strength and stamina. A guy with flat tummy or six packs and without potbelly will fare better any day,that includes those hungry looking types.

U have a point, but hey i am not blind. A pot belly cannot just develop overnight, can it?
I don't think any man can stay close to me if he doesn't work out or maintain a good diet regularly. The kind of heat he will face from me ehn, he won't be able to take it.
Developed one within 4 months. And i dnt drink!
