Juan Aranols, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Nestlé (Malaysia) Berhad was amongst the thousands at home who broke sweat to MILO® Rentak Aktif Senam Aerobik session via livestream on MILO® Malaysia Facebook page held last Sunday, 12 April, as the movement control order (MCO) entered its fifth week.
MILO® Rentak Aktif Senam Aerobik is a series of weekly online fitness classes to encourage Malaysians to stay active while staying at home during the MCO. The session on Sunday was the second in the series that continues the MILO® Aktif Negaraku initiative to champion the goodness of sports and active as a way of life for all Malaysians.
Aranols said that not only MILO® wants to inspire Malaysians to take that crucial first step to get active but also lets everyone know that keeping active is, and should remain the norm, even as we adapt to this new normal lifestyle.
“We are glad we found a way to continue to keep Malaysians energised to go further during this time. It is more important now to take better care of our health and wellbeing while we are at home, whether we are beginners or keeping up our routines to stay active.”
Aranols was joined by his family who all enjoyed the session. “Thanks to the wizardry of social media, even in isolation, we can bring people together to stay active. The goodness of MILO® has always been complemented by the goodness of sport; so we want to share with Malaysians that staying active is really easy.”
He added that, as someone who maintains an active lifestyle, he related to the struggle of countless others who want to stay active and fit during MCO. “Until the MCO is lifted and the authorities advise that it is safe to get active outdoors again, we have MILO® Rentak Aktif. While staying safe indoors, I encourage all to keep a regular fitness routine.”
The one-hour class was led by fitness instructors Annie Tan, Shafiq Mickey, Sheena William, and Vivien Lee who each shared two easy-to-follow fitness routines. They kicked the session off with the MILO® Rentak Aktif routine synchronised to the MILO® Aktif Negaraku anthem, an upbeat song that gets people moving to an active lifestyle.
