It is rather sad to realize that while most of us would love to enjoy the full benefits of an active and healthy life, not most of us are willing to put in the hard work that goes into achieving this goal. It is easy to include “staying healthy” or “keeping fit” in our New Year’s resolutions or goals, but sometimes it is so much easier to oversleep than to wake up early and do stretching or some exercise routine before starting your day. Most of the time it is so much more convenient to stay in the couch in front of the tellie all day rather than to walk, jog, or bike around the neighborhood. Even this mum is guilty of this!
Would you believe that among 15 Asia-Pacific countries, Philippines is at the 9th spot of last year’s Healthy Living Index? This is a clear indication that while our awareness of various health risks and concerns are high, we are still prone to unhealthy habits and poor lifestyle choices {yes, like leading half-sedentary lives!}. As mums, it really is a must that we aim to lead a healthy active lifestyle in order to be around longer for our children.
This is where Philam Life would like to intervene and be a catalyst in improving the quality of life of every Filipino. To make living active a whole lot easier and more accessible for us, they formally launched the Philam Vitality Active App on 27 February at Earth Kitchen in BGC, Makati City.
The Philam Vitality Active App is in keeping with Philam Life’s mission to change public perception towards life insurance policies. As Philam Life’s CEO, Sir Aibee Cantos enthused “realizing how important good health is and how it is central to human happiness and economic progress, the Philam Group, together with our parent company, AIA, will reinvent life insurance by changing our and our customer’s attitude towards health.”
To make sure this advocacy reaches every Filipino, Philam Life enlisted two of the country’s greatest volleyball players as Philam Vitality Active ambassadors ~ Alyssa Valdez and Mika Reyes. Not only distinguished and multi-awarded athletes, Alyssa and Mika are embodiments of hard work, discipline, determination, and dedication, and are most apt to inspire and encourage Filipinos to be fit and active, thereby bringing out the best in themselves.

This look an awesome app, I will look out for this on the apps store. xx
Hope you get to try it soon
So great there are resources for helping us keep healthy.
Indeed, it is!
I love fitness apps because they make workouts easier for me to track especially since I want to see my progress every day or every week. This sounds like a very reliable app!
I hope you will get to try it out soon.
Getting into a fitness routine has proven really difficult for me. I just really lack the motivation! This app sounds great!
I feel you, I also need constant motivation in keeping a fit and active life.
I love apps like this – I definitely need a bit of motivation to get up and do some exercise and this seems perfect – I like to compete against myself so I’ll always be trying to beat the previous day!
Sounds like a fun thing to do! I also need constant motivation to exercise and this is a perfect companion!
Oooooo now this sounds like one great insurance option! I will have to look more into it
This sounds like a great contest to enter. It is so important to put our health first and I love apps that help us do that.
It sure is! I guess nothing will get the people to be on their feet than great prizes, right? 😉
This looks like a really cool app – I have made many changes in 2017 and will definitely download this app.
I hope it helps you stay active and fit this year 🙂
What an interesting app! I really hope that all those great rewards help people to stay healthy and move more.
I sure hope they do.
I think using apps to keep up with a healthy diet or fitness plan is extremely helpful. I use several different ones, and they really help keep me on track.
I am sure I can keep up with multiple of apps. I guess a couple will be effective for me.
This app looks interesting. I don’t include exercise in my New Year’s goal because I know that I’m not fond of exercising. I know that we need to have an active lifestyle but I need a lot of motivation to exercise. 🙂
I feel you. We need all the help we can get to be motivated. Good thing apps like these are now easy to download 🙂
This looks like a really nice and helpful app/tool. I might check this one out. 🙂 I’ve been trying to workout, however, recently, I haven’t done it regularly anymore. Hoping to get back in the game again.
Wow! The app sounds interesting! I recently back from working out (running) and I still feel lazy to run sometimes lols. My mother in law needs to loose some weight too and I will definitely let her read this entry too. Thanks for sharing!
You’re most welcome! I feel you. I, too, am so lazy when it comes to running our working out! 😀
I am not a fan of fitness app but this seem easy to use.
It sure is easy to use.
