The more you run, the healthier you (will) become."
1) "The more you run, the healthier you become."
2) "The more you run, the healthier you will become."
is there a meaning difference between them? I feel like there is no meaning difference but I am not sure. What do you native English speakers think? If you do not like the example sentences, you can use anything with the same structure.
Thank you so much as usual and have a good day.

The first one sounds like a general statement; you could be an impersonal pronoun. The second one is more specific, as if you giving advice to a certain person. There isn't really a grammatical reason for this difference in meaning, as far as I know.
