I am borrowing my friend Jeff’s hirit about Phiten in this blog posts title because, well, it’s just so fitting, right? 
Sometime ago I was invited to the press briefing of the brand Phiten where company reaffirmed it’s commitment to health and fitness. While I don’t attend many blogger events anymore, I really made it a point to attend this one because of my fervent desire and motivation to keep working at being a Fat Girl No More. Granted that the Phiten power bands are not necessarily designed to target weight loss, I figured checking out how it does aid in total health and wellness to keep in fighting (este Phiten!) force can aide in keeping me more healthy and fit, right?
The event was held at Hyphy’s in Galleria and was graced by the top executives of the Phiten brand. The event also featured a talk by renowned coach and fitness guru, Coach Jim Saret who shared about his Metafit exercise, which is a four minute interval training workout designed to help increase one’s ability to effectively lose weight in short intervals of time.
What exactly is Phiten? I will be honest, prior to the launch I had zero knowledge about the product and I thought of it as just one of those fads that were quite expensive.
Founded in 1982, Phiten aims to enhance the quality of life of people worldwide with it’s innovative Japanese brand of aquametal-infused accessories and apparel. Stemming from their philosophy of health, energy and well-being, the company utilizes nano-technology in breaking down titanium, silver and gold minerals into those nano particles that end up infused into their necklaces, bracelets, and other products. What it does is restore and maintain the optimum balance of the body. During the event Coach Jim demonstrated how the products can aid in regulating or stimulating energy flow and blood circulation as the bloggers and other media guests tried his Metafit exercise.
The event was capped off with the launch of a blogger’s 21 day Phiten challenge, where three bloggers were selected to try out the Phiten system for 21 days and to document how it aided in their overall health and well-being. Too bad I wasn’t one of them! I would have loved to see how using the line could have helped in my yoga practice I did get one of those 3-line skeleton bracelets and I’ve been using it on and off since I got it. I don’t know how to describe how it has helped me though, mainly because I haven’t been consistent in using it and I’ve been incredibly stressed lately with all the overwhelmingly difficult tasks that have come my way! One thing I know about the Phiten brand, however, is that unlike the other products that claim similar technology and the like, this one is backed up with research and evidence on how it works and affects the body.
