Lifestyle

Vicarlo Buenaventura is an engineer who works with electronic devices – he is giving licences to a wide range of gadgets. At the age of 55, Vicarlo plays badminton and even takes part in several local tournaments, runs on treadmill and walks a lot. As an engineer, he is familiar with smart watches of any kinds, so he totally understands how his HEALBE GoBe works.

Calorie control

Vicarlo wanted a device to count calories for a long time. He found out about GoBe, read some reviews and decided it was exactly what he needed. He browsed a website and learned a lot of new about GoBe inner work, but found the idea interesting.

The main goal Vicarlo wanted to achieve was to maintain his weight and get more energy.

“I’m a person who always played badminton”, he says “I’m a competitive player because I played with the national players of the Philippines. To do that, you should be physically fit. To achieve this you should reduce the fats of your body”.

“I’m a person who always played badminton”, he says “I’m a competitive player because I played with the national players of the Philippines. To do that, you should be physically fit. To achieve this you should reduce the fats of your body”.

Vicarlo is convinced that you should wear the GoBe for a long period of time to understand your body better: “After 1 month of using the GoBe I’ve understood how it works and how my body is burning calories”. During this little period of using his GoBe Vicarlo has understood how to cut calories to maintain his weight and reduce fats.

Tactics of the winners

Vicarlo knew that slow and steady wins the race, so he didn’t want to lose weight massively, he wanted to reduce it gradually and to make it a stable result. So he has been using a HEALBE GoBe for one year now and he has lowered his body fats by 5%. This result was also supported by strength workouts from time to time, but the GoBe really helped him to achieve this goal with no counting or manual logging.

Importance of water balance

Furthermore, Vicarlo notes that one of the main features of the device for him is GoBe hydration reminders. HEALBE GoBe is able to measure body water directly by tracking tissue resistance. He says that he has started to drink more water and this is the most important thing for him because before, when he was playing badminton, after 3-4 games he experienced cramps. And as GoBe started to remind him to replenish, he has never experienced these cramps anymore.

Personal secret of motivation and active lifestyle

Today Vicarlo continues doing sports, leading a healthy lifestyle and using his HEALBE GoBe. Where does he get his motivation from? How does he stay active? 

“People asking what my secret is. I don’t know. I never follow a diet, never sleep properly. GoBe reminds me to sleep, to drink more water. So, finding a proper nutrition, losing body fats, drinking more water — I think that is the secret”   

“For you to become happy, you should balance food intake: less carbohydrates and fats, more protein. Walk at least 10,000 steps every day, drink more than 2 liters of water every day, sleep at least 6-8 hours every day and rest at least once or two days in a week”   

We are sure that everybody is able to change their life that way and HEALBE GoBe could be your assistant to do that consciously and effortlessly.
