Very lazy pregnant men association all around; just fews early hours a day with sit up would sort a lot of things out. I don't blame them, most ladies here complaining are the types who massage and service them for money, tell me why PMEN would be worried to keep fit when young ladies keep satisfying them?

But seriously this thing is really annoying. I think we the ladies might share some blame in this because we do not encourage or chastise them on these things. We act like it doesn't matter and before you know it, your hubby has developed a 'pregnancy', a baby he will never deliver.
Imagine u a pregnant wife hugging your own pregnant husband, grin The hands will not be able to reach each other due to the 'double pregancies obstacles'. grin

This is true,having a pot belly is detrimental to ones health.But the truth is moderate poverty is one cause of being overweigh,in Nigeria,ita not evrywhr that gyms are acesible,even the one that is availabl is costly,even tell me where is the time to be going to the gym,stress is a number one factor that makes one stores unecesary fat in the body,imagine aftr going to the work frm 7:00,coming back by 6pm,whn is d time to gym pls?Aftr the days stress,all one will do is overeat,nd then sleep.nd mayb d job is the one one wil need to stay in one place, nd even if thier are gyms,is it in this time of recesion one wil b gyming?Pls dont blame Nigerians with pot bellies esp those that doesnt drink alcohol,blame genetic instead
valid excuses but can be circumvented if one is determined. why would one need to pay to use a thread mill when he can jog for free? why would one also pay to use or buy the "sit up chair" when u can lay your back on the floor and do some helpful stomach muscle exercise. coming back by 6pm isn't much of an excuse also. An exercise session for 45 mins daily isn't too much. It could even be in the morning before going out to work(which is what i do).Nobody with pot belly should blame "lack of money as the reason". I am not rich. i can't even afford gym sessions + i come back from work very late,like yesterday, i came back close to 11pm, and i decided to skip dinner cos i want my six packs to stay intact. It's all about discipline and determination.

On behalf of all my APBL(association of pot belly lords) brothers and as the president of APBL(unmarried chapter) i will like to inform you that "pot belly" is not a 'condition' or an ailment but a "choice", we cannot all have the bodies like bricklayers or bouncers, some of us are made to be chubby and we like it like that. Variety is the spice of life and "body shaming" is a crime against humanity!! angry angry


Well said!!!!!!

That's carelessness & laziness on the men's part, because as a man when your stomach starts protruding you ought to know that your body is getting outta shape but, instead of hitting the gym nor exercise regularly we men will resort to hit more bottles of beer & plates of isi ewu or ugba at beer palour. As a man, I can't tell my wife to look like Beyonce nor Genevieve for me while I look like her father nor carry 6months undeliverable pregnancy about. it's uncalled for. As a matter of fact, I don't joke with exercise at all, whenever I wake up in the morning before going to work I do my 100 press-ups(count down), 50 push-ups & 50 sit-ups and whenever I look at the mirror I love who I see there.


I promised myself that I can't watch beer impregnate me or other wise.


Please what is/are the difference(s) between push up and press up??!!!!!!!

I don't have the pics, i would have used it for a better clarification.

Push-ups/pull-ups is like or when you sit in a pavement, then place your hands on the pavement & move your butt and your upper body off the pavement remaining only your hands, then stretch your legs forward & begin pulling up & down movement.

You wanna knw why?This is why
Ur wife is mad at you that for like past two month,they only eat rice once a week,u think you can jog,u did dat twice and you stopped whn all you were thinking is why the hell the rice is this costly?so because you need som motivation,You wil start seeing the reason why theres a need for threadmill. I hate it when people judge others with thier own evaluation of life,or things happening around them.You need to read more on the psychological reason for obesity,do you even knw that some people wont just loose weight even though they are jogging,do u knw how hard loosing bellyfat is for some people,even though they are exercising?Am a fitness preacher as well,was once overweigh,nd i know alot about Physical fitnes and mental fitness,bt i preach my own fitness in a calming manner,alot is going on with people inside of them,we jst cant see it.
