Hitting the Gym @GenSan!

Hitting the gym seems to be the craze recently here at GenSan. And to prove this, there's yet another gym that's under construction and will soon open. Will this be just "another" gym in the city or will this facility proves to be different and worth joining?

"General Santos City used to be a grass-land", a friend reminiscing the past as we went along the Pan Philippine Highway. Indeed, as bombings had ceased and peace began in GenSan, infrastructures started rising. Along with this came the well-known malls of Metro Manila. And not far behind them are the growing concern for healthy living...thus the gyms are established one after the other.

General Santos is not lacking in good gym facilities, but there are only a few able and qualified trainers, and not to mention, their services are quite expensive too. So when you hit the gym, it's either you already know what you're doing or you'll end up getting frustrated. And this is where Metro Lifestyle GenSan differs from the rest.

The first time I've heard about this, it was way back in March or April 2014. There was such a big buzz about this gym and I was thinking "Why?" Even my husband who is not a gym fanatic would start talking about it during meal time. And when construction started, he would drive by and show me where it is located. For a provincial gym, Metro Lifestyle GenSan is quite pricey, so I really have to dig deep before I will jump in and here's what I found out.

Proof that their trainers are willing to train

Metro Lifestyle is the only gym in GenSan that offers an "all-in" package for its members. This means that as a member you can hit the gym, use the indoor jogging path and the dance floor for zumba, belly dancing, do boxing and all other facilities the gym has to offer.

Metro Lifestyle is the only gym that has a jacuzzi and dry sauna! For someone who dreams to lose at least 10kgs (like I do!), you are given free access to lose those unwanted fats faster!

Metro Lifestyle is the only gym that has at least 8 trainers who will be there to discuss with you your goals and make sure that you will reach it.


Metro Lifestyle is the only gym that has a state-of-the-art and newest equipment.

Metro Lifestyle is the only gym that offers TRX and Vipr programs.

Metro Lifestyle is the only gym that has an indoor jogging path.

If these "only's" are not yet enough, how about the fact that Metro Lifestyle Davao and GenSan are the only Mindanao's home-grown gym facilities that can compete with Gold's Gym and Fitness First of Metro Manila!

Have I given too much accolade to this gym that is still under construction? I hope not, for that is not my purpose. The reason why I have given such a marvelous description of this gym is because that's what I have seen and witnessed. And at the same time, it will be under great scrutiny now that people's curiosity and expectations have been kindled and sparked. Come and see if Metro Lifestyle GenSan is indeed a gym that's cut above the rest.
