In Pursuit of Health, No Room for Excuses

Life can seem very short if we don't maximize the time we spend on it. When I was young, I was never conscious of how I look, though I looked very skinny. I was never fully aware of what can really be done to make myself fit. I know I'm a late bloomer when it comes to getting fit and healthy. I started enrolling in a fitness gym in 2002 with some friends when a big health club was built in Alabang. Yes, enrolling in a gym on a monthly basis can really be heavy on the budget. We have discussed amongst ourselves the pros & cons of joining the club. And it's still a great way to invest in health and wellness. 

Importance of Exercise

I have stopped for quite a long time from going to the gym due to my heavy load at work. Teaching had been one of my passions but I realized that I couldn't enjoy the time anymore for myself - that includes working out in the gym. I am now very conscious of my weight, and I get very frustrated whenever I fail in my own physical target - to sleep early, wake up early and have a good breakfast. It has been a struggle really whenever I try to juggle things in my hands. Staying online, doing a number of emails and updating blogs are some of the reasons I have difficulty with managing my time and therefore my own health is sometimes getting compromised. I know what I have to do and I stick to what is right. 

I remember when my Kongkong (a Chinese term we call our grandfather) was still alive, he got used to sleeping in a big wooden rocking chair. He preferred having it than bed. He has difficulty sleeping in bed flat. Reclining his back in a slanted position makes him in a relaxing mode. He would sleep very early. As soon as he woke up, he would go to the toilet and pee and go straight to his morning routine - stretching, exercising and running! He had acquired this habit of exercising when he was still young as a boxer. Yes, he was a boxer. I couldn't remember anymore why he discontinued boxing which he earnestly loved doing. 

There is really no valid excuse not to have the exercise our body needs. If we really want to get fit and healthy, have the muscle tone we desire, then there are a lot of ways to do it. There is no room for excuses. When I wake up, I do some stretching. But I must admit that I don't get to do it as regularly as I ought to. Not that I'm lazy but I just forget doing it sometimes. I realized that when we make exercise a habit upon waking up in the morning, exercise must be part of my morning routines.

F.I.T. Workout + Fit 'n Right

Last October 23, 2009, Del Monte Fit 'n Right has launched its newest campaign dubbed "Dare to be Fit 'n Right" in Taste Asia at the SM Mall of Asia, hosted by DJ Dylan. The event gathered a number of bloggers that featured the revolutionary workout called F.I.T. (Fast Intense Training) by sports scientist and Master Coach Jim Saret. The F.I.T. Workout is a 4-minute workout that includes stretching, squatting, push-ups, etc. It makes you burn at least 400 calories and continues to burn even when you're done with the workout. Amazing, isn't it? Though losing weight is not part of my agenda, this is still the most effective workout I've seen that can be done in a few minutes and without the aid of any machine or dumbbells.

Coach Jim obtained his MS Sports Science degree from Brigham Young University in the US. He is a core training expert and a sports and fitness writer and lecturer. Currently, he is the Sports Program Head of the Ateneo de Manila University and the Strength and Conditioning Coach of the PBA, POC, and the PSC. Coach Jim is a powerful motivator who knows what it means to be fit and healthy in very easy ways. I am very motivated and encouraged with his positive outlook and energetic aura that exude in him in his very informative lecture and demonstration. I can actually do this workout given that I eat a lot and eat the right kinds of food. I wish he could be my mentor and trainer.

F.I.T. Workout is recommended to be partnered with Fit 'n Right fruit juice drink if better and faster results are desired. Because Del Monte Fit ‘N Right contains the breakthrough L-Carnitine that helps burn fat and B Vitamis 1, 6, 12 that help speed up metabolism. L-Carnitine is a natural substance that is occurring in the body but can be supplemented for optimal health. It transports the fatty acids into the mitochondria, the “cell’s powerhouse” where they are burned into energy needed for a healthy heart, important body functions and physical activities. Supplementary L-Carnitine contributes to optimal fat oxidation, and along with a proper diet and regular exercise, promotes healthy body weight. 

Dra. Leonora Panlasigui of University of the Philippines did a clinical study and has proven the effectiveness of Fit 'n Right products. The study reveals that one can lose as much as 16.7% body fat in just 6 weeks with regular consumption of Fit 'n Right, diet and exercise. Each Fit 'n Right 330 mL bottle contains 300 mg and for those who want to lose weight, the recommended daily intake is at least 3 bottles, at least 2 hours before an exercise or physical activity to maximize the fat-burning benefit.

Weight Gain

Gaining weight has really been a serious problem for me. I don't have any qualms with eating. I was never a pihikan (choosy) when it comes to food. I can actually eat anything (edible foods of course). I eat ALL kinds of vegetables. This is no joke - i really eat ALL kinds of veggies. And I'm proud of it! Name it and I am certain that I (can) eat it. My friends cannot believe their eyes when they see me eat, because I really eat a lot. I can get hungry very easily in minutes. After about 1-2 hours of eating a meal, you would witness me looking for food again. When there is a party or gathering where buffet meal is available, expect me to stay long in my table. My friends and relatives just couldn't believe it. With the rate of my weight, they ask me how I could stock up that much food. I also could not supply them an answer. I guess, because of positive thinking? I hope to apply that too in getting the right exercise and the right discipline to getting fit and healthy.

My body metabolizes at a speed of a bullet either I do something or not. This is one main reason why I really have trouble gaining weight. Perhaps this is also one reason why I get hungry very fast. But still, my eating doesn't show any proof in my body weight. My friend Janina, who studied alternative medicine on the side, said that maybe my body is so acidic; that I have to change some foods to alkaline foods. Some friends suspected that I am thin because I eat only a little and that I am picky with foods.

During my first year of teaching in 1998 in a school in Alabang, my co-teachers would always see me eating instant noodles paired with a sandwich or some crackers/ biscuits. They said, "kaya di ka tumataba e! Puro betsin ang laman ng tiyan mo!" They wanted to tell me to minimize eating instant noodles because preservatives is not good for the body. I told them that it's the only easy thing to eat during breaks at that time since the school didn't have a canteen for a long time. So everybody in school has to bring his/her own food that can feed for the whole day.

Some Fallacies & Myths

When I was in college, my cousin Larry has told me a secret to getting the weight I really need: drink 2 bottles of beer plus about 6 pieces of balut. If I could do it at least 3 times a week, the better. My immediate reaction was: "Ows?!" I never really liked the taste of beer. So he mentioned an alternative to beer: Sarsi. I thought: where in the world did he get that idea? He explained that it is what he and his friends in Masbate did to become big - that's why Larry is fat! (Actually, in the line of our families and relatives, we really don't call him 'Larry' but 'Dagul.' Dagul is the name he grew up with.) What a brilliant idea! But I never really tried it. Though for some time, thinking about this peculiar advice, I did try eating 3 pieces of balut. But that's just it! I couldn't go beyond three. I almost felt like throwing up! I don't see any logic why Sarsi must accompany eating balut. I just take any softdrink or juice. I understand that balut has very high calorie content, but also believe that it is also high in cholesterol. Therefore, i conclude that it's just a myth some people have concocted for themselves.

I have always wanted to try all means to gain weight and height - the products I see on Home TV Shopping. But I just get so frustrated that I don't have the necessary budget to buy those expensive tools and medicines that will help me gain weight. And at the back of my mind, I was also skeptic - what if they don't work, will I be able to get a refund in full? What if my body acquires some side effects? These things have blurred my mind. However, the idea still hasn't escaped me sometimes - what if I did try just one of the many products? Maybe I could have gained something out of my curiosity. It even crossed my mind to take steroids during workout (because I have yearned to have big and toned muscles). But when I saw a documentary on local TV channel that discussed the negative effects steroids can do to our body until we get old, I have drastically changed my mind! Yes, I have forgone those means, but never regretted not resorting to them ever in my entire life!

Exercise and eating right are the means to getting fit and healthy. This must also be accompanied with the right attitude, positive outlook and proper discipline. I can't think of any better way than that.


Del Monte Dare to be Fit ‘N Right Fun Run

Running has been one of the most popular sports that are being held many times a month. Del Monte Fit ‘N Right continues its commitment in promoting a healthy lifestyle with the Dare to be Fit ‘n Right Fun Run scheduled on November 22 at the Mall of Asia with over P300,000 cash and products at stake!

I have tried running 5K in Race for Life '08 last November 22, 2008 held at The Fort in Taguig City. I had so much fun doing it because I knew the health benefits it did on me and my breathing. I went on with the challenge despite my having asthma. Running a 5K race wasn't that easy. But finishing the race was an experience I won't forget! Winning was not anymore significant when you know that running is good for the body. Winning a race will just be a big plus.

The Del Monte Dare To Be Fit 'n Right Fun Run is organized by CEMG and supported by the Manila Bulletin, Solar Sports and Lenovo, the 3K/5K/10K Men and Women Open Run will benefit the victims of typhoon Ondoy and Pepeng through the SM Foundation.

What a wonderful treat for having a total body workout and just having fun, isn't it? Go register now!

DEL launched Allergy Awareness Program & Itchy the Grump Contest

Skin allergies are considered to be a growing epidemic among children that has alerted the people behind the Del Fabric Softener.  Being one of the top fabric softener brands in the Philippines, Del has found the solution to a consumer need of having a fabric softener that is safe for the whole family, even kids, to use. Prevention is always better than cure.


Del has launched the Allergy Awareness Program and the Itchy the Grump Contest held at The Stock Market in Bonifacio High Street at The Fort, Taguig City on September 5, 2009.

Young children are easily susceptible to all kinds of discomforts such as allergies.  Allergy experts in the Philippines relate that there have been an increasing number of allergy-related diseases over the years.  Children in particular are the most sensitive to allergens, causing most of them to turn irritable and grumpy.  And surprisingly, many common allergens are found in the home.

It is very important to think, not only what our children eat, but also the kind of laundry products we use to wash their clothes. Health experts recommend that parents use laundry products that are skin-friendly when washing their children’s clothes to avoid contact dermatitis, a skin reaction caused by exposure to certain allergens.  Del Hypoallergenic Fabric Softener is dermatologically-tested safe even for children’s delicate skin.  Its skin-friendly formula has a gentle scent and contains no artificial colorants, leaving skin safe from allergies while making clothes soft and mildly fragrant.

Through the Allergy Awareness Program, Del aims to educate parents regarding allergies as an epidemic that is prevalent in homes but can easily be prevented, as well as raise awareness among consumers to understand and choose hypoallergenic products. Because harsh chemicals are the main causes for most kids to have skin reactions such as itching, rashes and hives.

Being the first and only hypoallergenic fabric conditioner in the country, Del Fabric Softener propagates its message through the Itchy the Grump book that zeroes in on the discomfort that children may suffer from skin allergies.  The book was made more interactive by encouraging parents to upload videos and photos of their kids for the Itchy the Grump Contest. The book, entitled Itchy the Grump, is a tale about a kid named Itchy who is always unpleasant and grumpy because of the allergies he has been suffering from.  It takes a humorous twist when Itchy suddenly breaks into dance as he furiously tries to scratch hard to reach parts. Arkin Magalona, the youngest son of the late Master Rapper Francis M., plays the character of Itchy in the story.

Itchy the Grump also underscores the impact that skin allergies may have on children, such as difficulty focusing in school, inability to sleep, and social embarrassment.  More importantly, it emphasizes prevention as the most effective way to avoid skin allergies, through the use of hypoallergenic products, such as Del Hypoallergenic Fabric Softener. 

Parents will find that their lives have been made easier by Del through Wear Itch Free Clothes, an online portal that gives the lowdown on skin allergy and different ways on how to prevent it.  It also serves as the platform where people can upload their videos and photos for the Itchy the Grump Contest. Deadline of submission of entries: November 21, 2009.

Canon Future Nation introduced 7 cutting edge digital cameras

Canon Marketing Philippines stirred the nation's imaging industry with the launch of seven (7) cutting-edge cameras in a grand event dubbed "Canon Future Nation."  Held in Whitespace Makati on September 9, 2009 [090909], Canon Future Nation gathered press people, bloggers and business partners to an exciting showcase of innovation and passion though its latest gadget offerings: the prosumer PowerShot G11 and S90, the telephoto PowerShot SX20 IS and SX 120 IS, the slim and stylish Digital IXUS 120 IS and 200 IS, and the much-anticipated EOS 7D DSLR.

I have been a Canon user for 2.5 years now using my Canon Digital Ixus70 and I strongly feel that I have to upgrade now my camera for a more sophisticated and creative shots that shouldn't escape my eyes and my hand.

All of Canon’s new digital compact cameras incorporate the improved Smart AUTO Mode with Scene Detection Technology.  This handy feature enables Canon cameras to analyze shooting situations—type of subject, color information, movement and focusing distance—and to automatically select the optimal settings to give users the best shots every time.  With Smart AUTO, users are freed from the effort of switching from Macro to Portrait, Night Snapshot to Slow Shutter, and 18 other specially defined settings that are designed to give users the confidence to shoot creatively, knowing that the camera has all the technical details covered.
  

Moreover, Canon is the only manufacturer today to feature Servo AF/AE, which enables the camera to continuously adjust focus and exposure even after the shutter button has been pressed halfway.
