Men’s Health in the Spotlight

We caught up with Gerrards Cross based Brett & David from the Healthy Silver Fox, an online forum for men of a certain age 😛 covering health & wellbeing. David & Brett, met on the school run & established they had a similar outlook towards a healthy future and the Healthy Silver Fox was born!

Tell us a little bit about the Healthy Silver Fox….

There isn’t much out there for our age group in respect of health and fitness, everything seems to be aimed at the 30 year old, so we wanted to start a website that tackled the issues of our age group 45 – 65 in growing old wisely.

What inspired you to set up The Healthy Silver Fox?

Both Brett and I are interested in our health and we were at the age where it’s so important to manage your health. We wanted to inspire others, as some of our friends had become unwell.

What were you doing before The Healthy Silver Fox?

Brett: I worked in financial services.

David – I’m an Insurance Broker.

Who could benefit from The Healthy Silver Fox?

Anyone, it’s aimed at men, however a number of female friends have commented how interesting the articles have been.

What does a typical day look like for you and how do you incorporate the Healthy Silver Fox mantra into your every day life?

We try and practise what we preach by incorporating the following into our day: stretching, eating healthily and some exercise (it doesn’t always happen though 😉)
