Move8

Welcome to the Move8 Method

May these Pillars of Wellness be your guide to your own personal quest for living your best and healthiest life and being able to use your Fitness for Good.

Find something that you love doing, find your community

Pillar 1: Find your 8, your team

Find your workout besties, a group of 8 people that will mutually commit to supporting each other, move with you and you with them, eat with you, listen to one another and simply having fun while achieving your individual health & wellness goals. What do you love doing while working out a sweat?
Tune in to your mental health

Pillar 2: Listen to your Heart

Find quiet time daily, even if it’s just for 10-15 minutes. Pen down your health goals, map your achievements, doodle your latest thoughts – all on a note pad or a diary. Writing down your goals will help put thoughts into pespective, and make it bite-sized and achievable. It can also help reset our neural pathways and stretch your neural plasticity. Healthy bodies require healthy minds, so why don’t we give our heart’s desires a listen?
World Mental Health Day on 10/10 is a day where they break the silence about mental health as a social stigma. Tune in to your mental health.

Start doing brisk walks, building it up to higher intensity walks and muscle building with resistance exercises

Pillar 3: Movement as Therapy

Brisk walks, building up to higher intensity ones and muscle building with resistance exercises. Ever heard of doctors prescribing 10,000 steps per day or 7KM? That’s why we love our advisory panel from Exercise is Medicine Society Malaysia. You could start slowly by walking every opportunity you get, use the escalator instead of the lift, walk or bike to work or incorporate sporting activities into your social life. Build it up slowly to achieve an average of 10,000 steps per day!

Do your research and find out what foods contribute to your health and understand which ones don’t. A fun way is reading labels!

Pillar 4: Food is Life

Food nourishes us, but it can also poison us. Understanding and knowing how your body reacts to the types of foods you eat can improve your well-being. Read labels, research and know what you eat. In brief, when we choose whole foods, we usually are already on the right path. But isn’t it fascinating how food directly affects our well-being? In ancient Indian Ayurvedic practise and Chinese herbal medicine – science has proven that certain foodstuffs with medicinal properties have been used successfully as remedy.

Background

Why Move8?

Asia Pacific is home to two-thirds of the world’s population. That’s about 4.3 billion people on this part of the world stretching from India through to Southeast Asia, all the way north to Japan, Korea and China and all the way south covering Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands including Fiji, Vanuatu, Papua New Guinea.

Initiated by sports, fitness & wellness news/media website AsiaFitnessToday.com – the Move8 Fitness Movement is on a mission! We call it Mission 2030 with a focus on halving obesity rates in the region by 2030 in line with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals #3.

How will we achieve this?

By creating awareness about the importance of physical movement in our daily lives; using Rhythm & Movement as Therapy. Life is so much more fun when we move to rhythm, and let those positive vibes reverberate throughout every cell in our body. In other words, let’s Move it, LAH!

How is Move8 funded?

All profits generated from this movement via Move8 Marketplace directly fund Move8. This includes fundraising events, grants & sponsorships and merchandise sales. For partnership or corporate sponsorship inquiries, click here.
