Last week, I was one of the fortunate bloggers to be included in the roster of invitees at the Gatorade Gym (Hoops Center) in Shaw 🙂 wherein the Celebrity Athletes in the likes of Alyssa Valdez, Chris Banchero and Mika Reyes played games with us throughout the afternoon showing such camaraderie and the innate love for sports.

The world’s favorite sports drink (My Personal Favorite as well) beefs up its roster of flavors with the official launch of its newest variant—the orange-and-grapefruit-flavor based White Lightning.
With the new variant comes a powerhouse line-up of ambassadors who are among the top local athletes of this generation. I was such a fan girl! 🙂 So giddy and excited at meeting them in person finally! 🙂


UAAP volleyball superstars Alyssa Valdez from the Ateneo Lady Eagles and Mika Reyes from the De La Salle Lady Spikers together with basketball hotshots Chris Banchero of the Alaska Aces and Jeron Teng of the De La Salle Green Archers. (Too bad Jeron wasn’t there that time)
Pepsico Philippines Marketing Manager for Hydration Tony Atayde said. “Alyssa, Mika, Chris and Jeron are top athletes who know the value of working hard to stay in peak form and understand that games aren’t won on the court but in the gym and practice venues. We’re excited to see them inspire more people to pursue active lifestyles and understand the value of proper hydration.” (Which is why they were handpicked to be the brand’s new ambassadors)

Gatorade believes that greatness begins with hard work—the kind with no shortcuts, the kind that’s relentless and that will make you ache and sweat. ( Just like what they say, if you want it, work it! and another one Success is 1% luck and 99% perspiration).Nice saying’s I got right there don’t you think? hehe 🙂

Looks like I gotta sweat bucket loads to achieve my ideal weight this time around since that’s one of my goals for this 2015. (Gotta CTRL those foodie cravings!)
Whether the goal is to finish a 21K half marathon, climb a mountain peak, or just feel physically stronger overall, preparing yourself in the gym and constantly working to improve your game is key to winning on game day.


And with this kind of hard work, proper hydration is crucial to be able to push forward and grow stronger. ( I will definitely need loads of Gatorade to pump me up and fuel me to never give up on those burpees) haha.
With a refreshing, light orange-grapefruit flavor, White Lightning is formulated with non-carbonated water that does not cause stomach discomfort; 6% carbohydrates which research has shown to be the optimal level in promoting absorption and providing energy to working muscles; electrolytes for rapid rehydration and minerals to help prevent cramps.

So what are you waiting it out for now? Try the new Gatorade and go for your dream 🙂 #PUSH
