Hello! It's not always easy to be as healthy as we'd like to be; sometimes things get in the way, like your job or getting sick. And some things need to be made way for, like being an awesome dad, or spending time with the people you love. The things that matter don't always fit into a routine, so perhaps it's unrealistic to go to the gym six times a week, or give up fast food completely. Instead, HFM aim to help you make valuable changes to your life, without compromising who you are and what makes you happy. Tom Hardy is a man who makes severe physical changes for the craft he loves. For advice on how to make huge gains, or an insight into the mind of one of Hollywood's most enigmatic men, turn to p17. If you're raising kids, we'll help you keep up with that fatherhood lifestyle and, for the wannabe dads out there, some practical advice on how to turn those sperm into egg hunting warriors (p32). Perhaps you're already a vegan, or would like to try out a diet that's better for the environment. HFM have spoken to the leaders of the vegan nutrition world to give you advice on how to boost your performance without meat (p36, and p14 for vegan recipes). Plus, we've compiled 28 tips and tricks to help you take on the world as best you can (p22). Thanks for picking up this issue - we had a great time making it, and we hope it helps give you the tools to live a healthier life. I'd love to hear what you think of it. Fill in our survey on p62 and, as a thank you, £50 could be on its way to you. Of course, you can also get in touch via our usual social media. Tom Rowley Editor
