Anyone else on T-Nation going to be participating in Movember? As a guy I constantly see all sorts of benefits for breast cancer awareness, but what about for issues that only effect us as men? Maybe no one wants to talk about prostates. Here is an easy way for us to do something about that.
During the month of November men all around the world will be growing moustaches, or “Mo’s”, as a way to help raise awareness for Prostate and Testicular Cancer. The rules are simple.
- Be clean shaven on November 1st
- Grow your moustache to help promote awareness for Prostate and Testicular Cancer.
(Getting in some donations would be pretty good here too!) - Don’t shave your moustache until November 30th. (Unless you really like it I guess)
That’s it! I personally know that at 24 years old I still grow a fairly weak moustache, but this is for a good cause which makes me happy to spread the word. Maybe if there are enough people interested, we could start a T-Nation team.
There are also quite a few contests involved in this if you’re interested, and you can find more at
