Immuvit MetaFit Challenge Week 3

I am now on my third week of the Immuvit MetaFit Challenge. There’s another set of exercise for us and I’m still getting the hang of it (more on that next week). Let me share with you what happened to Week 2.

The new routine for week 2 includes: 10 touch toes, 10 squat jumps and 10 alternate lunges. Here’s a short video for demonstration.

It’s a bit more challenging compared to Week 1’s routine, in fact, there’s a lot of leg work there. After 2 rounds, you can feel that your feet’s giving up. But don’t! Finish it just like what I did and it has to be 4 minutes.

Meta-Fit is a four-minute exercise routine that enables one to burn up to 600 calories in just a few minutes of exercise. Doing this form of exercise promotes higher metabolism and energy, stronger bones and lower blood sugar. It consists of fast, short and intense bursts of anaerobic exercises. -from Immuvit website

MetaFit was designed to reverse somatopause, a condition where in our body’s growth hormone production decreases, together with Immuvit, MetaFit can fight Somatopause. Immuvit is a herbal dietary supplement that contains 2 kinds of ginseng that gives energy boost. As Metafit is a fast, short and intense burst kind of exercise, we need all the energy boost that we can get and Immuvit is the right supplement for that.

During the first few days of week 2, I was doing it once a day, if you can remember, by the end of Immuvit MetaFit Challenge week 1, I’m already doing the routine 2x a day. My goal for week 2 is to continue doing the routine 2x a day. By 4th day of week 2 (day 11), I’m doing it 2x a day and by Day 14, I am already doing it 3x a day.

For this week, week 3, I plan to do MetaFit 3x a day. I also plan to run at least 2x a week and see how far I can go. If I haven’t mentioned it, my ultimate goal for this challenge is to be able to run 3k in 20 minutes or less. I really hope I can do it.

Run United 2: Bring Your Family Mommies!

Run United 1 proves to be a very exciting and fun activity for me and my kids. It’s not just about the run, it’s about the time we spent jogging and bonding. Every other day we would spend an afternoon at the park and run and on weekends we go there every morning to run and have a picnic. It has brought us more closer and of course healthier!

So this coming June, we’re going to join Run United 2, excited? Yes we are!

Unilab ActiveHealth invites moms and their families to take part in advocating an active and healthy lifestyle by joining the second leg of the 2012 Run United on June 17, 2012 at Mall of Asia.

POTW: Moon Dough Snack Shop

I just realized that my kids are now ready for dough playing, my boys are, but with my youngest I thought she would chew on every dough she can. I think I underestimate her, she’s a big girl already (in fact she can put clothes all by herself). I was really thankful that I was asked to review a dough product, mommies and kids, I introduce you to Moon Dough:

Moon Dough is hypo allergenic no wheat dough and it never dries up!

The box that was given to us for review is Moon Dough Snack Shop. The box contain 3 blocks of moon dough (yellow, white and brown), a snack maker (ice cream and pop corn maker) and a pretzel maker. It also comes with ice cream cones and popcorn tumblers and a popcorn scoop.

From a mom’s point of view, anything that can keep the kids busy and happy, I am all for it. Seeing them play with the Moon Dough, making popcorn and ice cream, for hours is the reason why this is our product of the week. I just have to add that the popcorn maker is really cute, makes popcorn that looks so real!

Now let’s hear it from the kids:

My first born, being the most vocal has a say on Moon dough, it does not dries up according to him and not sticky to the hands. My second born who hates anything that has a strong smell, approves the mild smelling dough. All of them agreed that this is one of the best toy mom brought home. And all of them wants to make popcorn everyday!

As it is with any other dough, some parts tend to fall out, if you have noticed our rubber mat full of small whiteys, that’s Moon Dough, but since the dough never dries out, it’s easy to pick the fall outs and put it back to the bigger dough.

Moon Dough is exclusively distributed by Richwell Trading Corporation. Available in leading toy stores and department stores nationwide. For more information about other Richwell products, visit www.richwell.net or call Richwell Trading Corporation at telephone numbers 732-5141 to 47 loc 211.
