Viactiv wants you to #BeActiv and so do I. In fact, I want you to go beyond just doing it for health and fitness, I want you to #BeActiv for FUN! That’s right. FUN! I often talk about planning vacations around adventure instead of just who has the biggest free buffet. Trust me, you’ll remember the wacky excursion you took part in 10 years from now, but you won’t remember the rice pilaf or French toast.
This theory should go for regular life too, though. Plan for FUN! Spend your money on FUN! Use that body of yours for FUN instead of just sitting down and watching other people have fun through movies, sports or television). If you eat lunch or dinner out every day of the week, you’re easily spending $80 weekly on that. If you ate home or brought a lunch box, for just a few dollars each meal … you’d like save $50 each week for your activity fun. With just a few weeks of that, you could have yourself a heck of a great time.

Within the past few years I’ve really made it a point to add more physically active adventure in to my life. Since then, I’ve learned to #BeActve and:
- Snowboard
- Wakeboard
- Paddleboard
- Trapeze
- Bollywood Dance
I’ve also randomly run about 10 half marathons. This year, I commit to #BeActive by running more races, learning to water-ski barefoot and cross-country ski. I’ll also work on squeeze in more time to play football, basketball and soccer with my kids in our yard.
Folks, your body was designed for movement and your heart and mind are dying for some squeaks, squeals and giggles. Get up, go have fun and #BeActiv! Make a little active “bucket list” per se, and then start making those line items happen! They can be as simple as start each morning dancing to your favorite tune in the shower to planning a trip to Everest. Just think how much more interesting your life will be!
For Viactiv to #BeActiv means getting involved, getting moving and getting healthier, including making sure you’re getting the recommended amount of daily calcium for bone health based on your age (70% of adult women are calcium deficient; that number jumps to around 85% for teen girls!). While calcium from food sources is important, Viactiv comes in legitimately great tasting soft chews (in milk chocolate, caramel and sugar-free milk chocolate varieties – it’s the #1 doctor-recommended calcium supplement chew), as well as new gummies (tropical fruit) to make it easy and appealing to make sure you (and your daughter, sister, mother) are getting enough daily calcium. Honestly. Viactiv is easy for me to take, because I’m averse to pills and this stuff tastes like candy.
