Men I know. I am one, after all. Have been for many years. For the most part, I enjoy it. It\\u2019s worked out really well for me. I don\\u2019t find it particularly difficult to be a man. Once I dialed in the basics of this Primal stuff, my health improved and my fitness became more well-rounded and applicable to the things I enjoyed doing. I haven\\u2019t struggled much. But many people do. And while the majority of Primal advice is geared toward\\xa0humans in general,\\xa0I\\u2019ll just get this out of the way early: These \\u201cmen\\u2019s tips\\u201d all apply to many women, too. And many of the \\u201cwomen\\u2019s tips\\u201d from last week\\u2019s post also apply to men. But ignoring the gender-specificity of\\xa0general trends\\xa0serves no one. Everyone has the capacity for competitiveness; men\\xa0tend to have more. Both genders can benefit from fasting, but women are more likely to have negative responses. Men and women both need sleep; lack of it hits women harder. That\\u2019s all. As always, if you recognize yourself in these tips, go for it!
