This month we are lifting the load and it is MASSIVE!
These @vetosports weighted vests aren’t just for fitness – they’re a powerful symbol of the invisible burden some of us carry around everyday. By putting one on, we’re sparking conversations, raising awareness and showing support for young men’s mental health.
And together, we’ve already clocked over 50,000 km this Mental Health Month!
A huge shoutout to our mates at Veto Sports for backing the movement and helping us get these vests to our supporters across the country. Their support has helped so many of us come together to lift the load! THANK YOU 🫶

We all experience emotions like anger, stress and sadness, it’s part of being human.
But when we bottle it up and try to deal with it alone, it only gets heavier. That’s why we lift.
Lift the Load isn’t just about the weight on your shoulders, it’s about letting go of what you’ve been holding inside.
At Top Blokes, we’re helping young men check in with themselves and their mates early on, before things reach that breaking point. These small habits are where big change starts.

Today is World Mental Health Day. In celebration, every dollar donated to Lift the Load Challenge will be instantly doubled, up to $40K.
The legends at @platinum3painting are absolutely leading the charge. They created “Therapy Thursdays,” an initiative ensuring that no one in their crew ever has to face struggles alone.
Last week, they completed their Lift the Load Challenge, jogging an incredible 50km in one day! That’s true resilience, physically carrying the silent weight so many young men endure alone.
They’re driven to raise $10,000 this year to help young men open up and connect.
