The Bandwagon Chic: GI.Jo Fitness Exciting New Branch in Cubao, Quezon City

"The pain you feel today, will be the strength you will feel tomorrow."

On January 18, 2020, GI.Jo Fitness kick starts the new year with the grand launching of its third branch in Quezon City. It is located in the Manhattan Parkway in Cubao, which is a perfect place for a fitness hub. They offer Fitcamp and one-on-one personal training, both available short and long term packages. There are hot and cold showers and sauna facilities that are available to use to help clients refresh and relax after class. In the coming months, the branch will also be installing several sets of gym equipment, as well as offer other programs including but not limited to Zumba, Boxing/Muay Thai, dance fitness, and many more.

GI.Jo started in 2016 with a small facility at North Fairview, specializing in boot camp-inspired group exercises it brands as "Fitcamp." Fitcamp is a series of exercises based on HIIT or high-intensity interval training, which is a popular technique for effective fat burn. It is intentionally held in a group setting to not only lower down costs for their clients but to also help create an environment full of motivation. GI.Jo Fitness stands out from other fitness centers is its strict practice of coach accountability. This means it keeps and tracks a record of each of its clients to ensure consistent progress based on their established SMART fitness goals.

"One of the hardest parts of getting fit is being consistent about it ." GI.JO Fitness Araneta City Lead Coach Joshua Manatlao said. "As coaches, we not only ensure clients get the right fitness program. We also help them stay on track," he added.

"Since our founding in 2016, more and more people have come to us and express an interest in helping us realize our corporate mission of providing Filipinos affordable, accessible, and sustainable platform to being fit," said GI.JO Fitness co-founder Gian Colocado. "We're very excited to have a foothold here at Araneta City and further advance our mission," Colorado added.
