MANILA, Philippines, 24 February 2017 -The new MILO Champ Moves continues to make waves on social media, with millions of netizens having watched the viral, upbeat music video, even creating their own versions through parody clips, memes and cool remixes. At the center of the dance exercise is one of the country’s most influential young celebrities—actor, singer, dancer, and MILO ambassador James Reid. But did you know that there’s more to James than his roles in movies and TV shows?

 

Here are five Champion Facts you probably didn’t know about the talented James Reid and why he wants to help kids #BeatEnergyGap:

 

 

1. He was an athlete at an early age and competed in school competitions.

 

James is not only agile on the dance floor but also in sports, having participated in gymnastics, Australian football, swimming, golf, and cricket

 

“I was very athletic as a kid, and I’m very proud of that. When I was in primary school until high school, I would try everything, shared James during the Champ Moves video shoot“I love swimming and I’ve been doing it as long as I can remember. I also played Australian football, golf, gymnasticsand even went as far as high-diving.

 

Showing off his champ-like enthusiasm and winning energy, James excelled particularly in gymnastics and swimming, allowing him to participate in several school competitions.

 

“I competed in school for swimming, and alsoreached regionals for gymnastics. Looking back, it was really a good experience, I even won a bronze medal for it," he recalled.

 

2. James’ dad was the reason why he was athletic at a young age, encouraging him to try different sports.

 

Growing up, James’ dad encouraged him to work hard and play hard. Whenever James would start to doubt himself, it was his dad who kept pushing him to excel.

 

My dad introduced me to different types of sports. He didn’t make me do anything I didn’t want to do. Instead, he encouraged me to try new things and to do my best—he even loved taking videos of me intraining. Even if I wasn’t good at a sport, he’d keep pushing me to never give up, James shared.

 

3. More than competing and winning, he loves theteam camaraderie.

 

During competitions, what I enjoyed the most was the team camaraderie—meeting new people and making new friends who were like-minded and passionate about sports," James said.

 

 

4. Despite his busy schedule in front of the screen, James continues to maintain an active and healthy lifestyle.

 

James makes sure that he keeps an active and healthy lifestyle by exercising and eating right.

 

Regardless of how hectic my schedule gets, I still make sure I stay active by going to the gym,” saidJames. “In keeping a healthy lifestyle, it’s important to start your day right by eating a nutritious breakfast; as they say it’s the most important meal of the day.”

 

James also stressed that discipline is key in achieving a healthy lifestyle. It’s so easy to fall back on eating unhealthy food knowing that it won’t give you the right energy or nutrients. One needs the willpower to choose to eat the right food, and keep doing it every day. It’s the secret to having a happy and healthy life.

 

 

5. As a MILO kid himself, James wants to help kids#BeatEnergyGap through MILO Champ Moves.

 

When he sings “drink MILO every day!”, you know he means it.

 

Growing up in Australia where MILO originated, James drank MILO every day before going to school and sometimes after. “I grew up drinking MILO as a kid. It’s a brand that everyone knows, loves and rememberseven from their childhood. So I’m so excited to be part of the MILO family,” shared James.

 

Champ Moves in partnership with DepEd is a great program for kids as it will allow them to be more active, more alert during the day, especially for school. When you’re physically active, it’s easier to learn, absorb information, and socialize. The MILO Champ Movesprogram will surely energize kids to start the day right.
