As we step into the year of the Wood Dragon, a period symbolising action and the pursuit of goals, prioritising your health becomes important. The wood element encourages physical activity, setting the stage for positive change in your life this Lunar New Year. Learn to charge your well-being to pave the way for ‘loong’evity and prosperity by supercharging your life with these health-boosting tips from Under Armour and kickstart your journey to a healthier, more vibrant you.
Dribble away Stress: Harness “Feel Good” Hormones over a Game of Basketball
Prioritising mental well-being is key to facing life’s challenges with resilience. Embrace the Wood Dragon year by incorporating basketball into your fitness routine. Engaging in this sport triggers the release of ‘feel-good’ hormones like dopamine and endorphins, providing a mental boost. To ensure you’re well-equipped for the game, find the right basketball gears tailored to enhance your experience and performance.
If you are looking to start basketball training, having the right basketball shoes is a must because it can prevent potential foot and ankle problems. Under Armour and Stephen Curry have collaborated with Bruce Lee Family Companies to release a highly anticipated set of collectible shoes, including the UA Curry 11 ‘Fire,’ UA Curry 11 ‘Future Dragon,’ and UA Curry 11 ‘Wind.’ These shoes not only enhance your basketball training but also offer a stylish Lunar New Year look.
Celebrating the legacies of both Bruce Lee and Stephen Curry in acting and basketball respectively, these shoes embody the belief that you can achieve anything. The unique unisex basketball shoe features UA Warp upper technology for enhanced comfort and control during dynamic basketball movements. With its lightweight material, breathable UA IntelliKnit, and durable UA Flow outsole, the shoe provides the right stretch and support needed on the court.
The versatility of these shoes seamlessly extends to the limited edition Curry x Bruce Lee Lunar New Year apparel collection, available exclusively for a limited time at selected stores, including the Under Armour brand houses at KLCC, Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, TRX Exchange, Mid Valley, Sunway Pyramid, One Utama, Genting Sky Avenue, and QueensBay Mall.
Ensuring the right attire from head to toe is crucial during a basketball game to promote maximum blood flow, prevent muscle strain, and effectively absorb sweat. For a complete Lunar New Year look, pair the Curry x Bruce Lee Lunar New Year mesh shorts. Crafted with all-over mesh fabric that is soft and super-breathable, these shorts complement perfectly with the Curry x Bruce Lee Lunar New Year Elements short sleeve. This short sleeve features a heavyweight soft cotton-blend fabric, providing all-day comfort, especially during an intense basketball game.
As an added bonus, take advantage of the special promotion currently running. With a minimum purchase of 2 pieces of apparel or footwear from the Curry x Bruce Lee collection, you will be entitled to a limited edition UA Basketball Ice Tray, allowing you to make refreshing drinks this Lunar New Year. This promotion is available while stocks last.
Enhance your Physical Resilience with Appropriate Strength Training
‘Feng Shui’ experts emphasises the importance of injury prevention during the Wood Dragon year. While it is challenging to eliminate the risk entirely, reducing it is crucial. Incorporating strength training into your routine proves to be one of the most effective methods. By developing a robust muscle core, you not only bolster your strength but also burn calories efficiently – a valuable asset, especially during the indulgent Lunar New Year celebrations. This training approach also enhances your physique, promoting a leaner appearance that shines in family photographs. Moreover, it significantly lowers the risk of injuries and falls by providing better body support.
To enhance the effectiveness and enjoyment of your workouts, it is essential to invest in the right gear for optimal strength training. The UA Unstoppable Collection offers a range of performance training gear, including joggers, shorts, and fleece hoodies. Designed to be stretchy, fast-drying, and comfortable, this collection also provides you with the flexibility you need to perform at your best. Moreover, the style adaptability allows you to seamlessly transition from the gym to casual meetups with friends, making them a versatile choice for this festive season.
The UA Unstoppable Collection is ideally complemented by the Under Armour Apparition running shoes, a design that seamlessly blends style and performance. Equipped with the latest HOVR Technology, it offers premium comfort. Additionally, the updated synthetic overlay not only enhances durability but also facilitates the incorporation of metallic accents, adding a touch of personality and style to the collection.
Boost Cardiovascular Health through Running

To kickstart your running regime, you will need to have your appropriate gear tailored for different runs.
Selecting the right footwear is important for a long-running journey because it plays a pivotal role in preventing potential running injuries such as joint pains, stress fractures and tendonitis.
