FHM’s approach to health and fitness is pretty simple: you’ve got to do what makes you feel good. Want abdominals that look like a pack of store-bought hot cross buns? Thinking of running an ultra-marathon on the surface of the sun? Chances are you’re not looking to us for fitness advice. But if you’re anything like the men and women of FHM, you like playing a bit of sport, going to the gym occasionally and, you know, staying on top of your health without being obsessed by it. There are, after all, far more important things to spend time on in life, like volunteering at the local historical society and completing Arkham City on the hardest difficulty. So if you lead an active, healthy life but don’t lie awake at night worrying about your BMI score and how much sodium was in that Lite n’ Easy apricot chicken, you could be the man we’re looking for.

Fame and riches on the celebrity-trainer circuit will doubtless follow.
