OUR
MEMBERS
With our Partners & Providers, Men's Health Trust NZ is able to provide our initiatives and services to men as a free service. When men register, we enlist them as members as we look to build a community of men alongside their families that we support and hope they too will support each other. Our members are men who are committed to improving their health and wellbeing through the initiatives and services we provide. Our members believe that by being better versions of themselves, they will help will be better for their families, their friends, their workplace and the wider community. Here are some testimonies from some of our members.
"Through my journey with Men’s Health and under the guidance of Mateo, I have dropped weight but more importantly and different to other training programmes I have been on, I am physically much stronger and the combination of weight training and conditioning has helped me retain my strength and power for longer periods of time.
I also work as a professional musician in the weekends and gig in evenings, and have noticed considerable changes in my singing ability, also in my energy levels on stage. I also have more energy to spend time with my 3 daughters who are 7, 8 and 11 years of age, instead of always being tired all the time. The Men’s health programme has given me a new lease on life and opportunity to re-focus my health and priorities."

Loving the Journey, I’m on with the boys, and the Men’s Health training Management, I’ll be continuing onto the next Men’s Health programme and encourage a few more boys along.
One thing I encourage my team boys is this saying:
“MAKE EVERY BATTLE A PERSONAL BATTLE”
Blessing to everyone,
Much Love to my #T4U Men’s Health Programme Group and associate groups.

Truly blessed that i found out about the MENS HEALTH initiative, it was definitely hard at the start but it got easier as we got FITTER and STRONGER, and the camaraderie and laughs amongst the BROTHERHOOD made it that much more enjoyable.
Its amazing how our physical health is attributed to our mental well being.
A BIG THANK YOU to Mateo Vaihu (you the man uce) and your team and all the associated sponsors/organizers of the Men’s Health Program and last but not least, the BROTHERS that made turning up to training week in, week out enjoyable.
MAD RESPECT
