Strong body, strong mind, strong heart

“Strength, in the physical, mental, and emotional sense, is key to living a fulfilling life. In the physical sense, being strong allows you to address almost all other physical attributes associated with health, fitness, and performance. In the mental sense, strength allows creative and assertive resolutions to otherwise daunting and crushing challenges or conflicts. Finally, in the emotional sense, being strong simply gives you a higher threshold for the rigors of modern living.” ~Marlon Lugue, Kinetix Lab’s Coach

And strength—in all its forms—is what you’ll find at Kinetix Lab UP Town Center.

Meet your new tribe

Find your strongest self wherever you are in your fitness journey. Whether it’s your Day 1 or Day 1,000.
 
“What we want is for people to feel at home—somewhere they can be vulnerable, so we can work on what they want while keeping in mind what they need.” ~Marlon Lugue, Kinetix Lab’s Coach

From the community that built Kinetix Lab in The Podium, the new location in UP Town Center is a fresh opportunity for them to bring their exceptional facilities and services to more clients. Here, they aim to build the same rapport they have successfully established with their regulars in their previous location. When you become a part of the tribe, trust that everyone will support your truest self and your biggest goals with the positive energy you can only find in the gym’s tight-knit community.

Second only to the incredible people that make up Kinetix Lab is their state-of-the-art equipment and their premium fit-out, which we’ve come to expect from the fitness center since its inception. 

Now, more clients living in the North can experience the industry-leading training equipment and coaching services Kinetix Lab offers at a more convenient and accessible location.

“We’ve been here for quite some time, and we know what we’re doing, as evidenced in the hundreds of lives we've made better. We don't like to brag about our facilities, equipment, and amenities since you can easily buy those. If you have enough capital, putting up a nice place with all the bells and whistles would be a breeze. What we have are conviction and passion— Conviction to deliver what is promised and passion to do things in the most creative and heartfelt manner.” ~Marlon Lugue, Kinetix Lab’s Coach

Kinetix Lab is for everyone

ZOI Lifestyle App, conveniently connects you to your go-to salons, spas, and skincare clinics

Zoi Lifestyle App

Meet Zoi Lifestyle, the app that conveniently connects you to your go-to salons, spas, and skincare clinics. If you’ve tried setting up appointments with salons, spas, or even skincare clinics, you probably know how frustratingly difficult it can get. Phone calls are not picked up, text messages go unanswered, direct messages on social media are seen-zoned but ignored. Thankfully, all that is a thing of the past with the Zoi Lifestyle app.
Although trips to our go-to salons, barbershops, spas, or wellness clinics were not prioritized as much due to safety protocols, we can all agree that practicing self-care is also necessary especially at a time when mental and physical wellness is very important. This need is what led to the development of the Zoi Lifestyle App. Zoi Lifestyle is a new online mobile application that allows users to book appointments hassle-free with their favorite go-to salons, spas, skincare clinics, and the like. 


For clients, Zoi offers them the conveniences of online booking and cashless transactions, while ensuring they get the services they want. Through the app, you will be notified that your booking has been accepted or rejected. Once accepted, you can visit the salon or clinic on your chosen date and time to have your service. 
 
With Zoi's mobile application, anyone can now book appointments with salons, spas, and skincare clinics alike. As of today, Zoi has partnered with Cut by Encarnacion, Danna's Beauty Salon and Spa, Skinnovate Skin Care, Salon De Laurel, Royal Aesthetics, Lush, and Luxe Nail Lounge, and Dr. Claudine Ramos Dermatology. 

Mr. Patrick Victoria, Founder & CEO of Zoi Lifestyle App

“Because of the pandemic, many Filipinos, including myself, had no choice but to book appointments to get a haircut, a facial, or other services. However, many establishments in the beauty and wellness industry are not able to respond to customer queries. This is how we conceived Zoi, which has made it far easier and much more convenient for clients to book their haircuts and other beauty and wellness needs, all by using this app.” ~Patrick Victoria, Founder of Zoi Lifestyle App

Aside from recognizing the need for self-care amidst this time of uncertainty, Zoi Lifestyle was also developed to help support the beauty and wellness sector in recovering from the losses after nearly a year of the community battling the pandemic.

“The beauty and wellness industry took a major hit since the pandemic began in the country. Salons, spas, skin clinics, and barbershops were the first establishments mandated to close and the last ones to re-open, leading owners to either forego employees, scale down operations, or even shut down permanently.” ~Patrick Victoria, Founder of Zoi Lifestyle App
Through the Zoi Lifestyle App, beauty and wellness providers will have an additional platform to reach clients and increase their digital presence as they slowly return to their normal operations and adapt to the impacts of the pandemic.


“Our plan is to onboard more partners to enlist their businesses in the app so that people can have access to all their beauty and wellness needs at their fingertips. Currently, we have partners from all over Metro Manila but in the future, we plan to expand to other major cities in the Philippines like Cebu and Davao as well.” ~Patrick Victoria, Founder of Zoi Lifestyle App

Indeed, life can be much easier with technology on your side. Support and download Zoi through the Google Playstore.

Herbalife Nutrition Survey Reveals Filipinos Need to Close Nutrition Knowledge Gap

Dr. Chin Kun-Wang, Member, Nutrition Advisory Board, Herbalife Nutrition  
“The results of the quiz and the survey show that there is a significant nutrition knowledge gap among Filipinos. We hope to help close the gap to empower them with the nutrition knowledge they need to make better nutrition choices. This is a good sign, so the next step is helping them achieve this. Our peak bone mass (max bone size and strength) is dependent on calcium intake and reaches its peak by age 30. However, sufficient calcium intake throughout life can reduce the risk of osteoporosis. Protein powder can be as good as protein from natural foods if derived from high-quality sources. For instance, soy protein from soybeans is a complete protein, providing a full range of nine essential amino acids for the body’s nutrition requirements.” ~Sridhar Rajagopalan, Senior Director, Sub-Region Head, and General Manager of Herbalife Nutrition Philippines

Sridhar Rajagopalan, Senior Director, Sub-Region Head, and General Manager of Herbalife Nutrition Philippines
Did you know that only 19% of Filipino consumers got 50% of the answers correct in a general nutrition knowledge quiz conducted by premier global nutrition company Herbalife Nutrition? The Philippines’ score was lower than the Asia Pacific (APAC) average of 23%.


The quiz was administered as part of Herbalife Nutrition’s Asia Pacific Nutrition Myths Survey 2020, which was conducted in March with 5,500 respondents from Australia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam. To test the nutrition knowledge of the survey participants, the quiz included a total of 48 “True or False” questions spanning nine nutrition areas - general nutrition, protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals, caffeine, weight management, and breakfast. 

Dr. Chin Kun-Wang, Member, Nutrition Advisory Board, Herbalife Nutrition  
Only 7% among those surveyed said that they were extremely confident about their nutrition knowledge. Fifty-four percent claimed that they were only somewhat well-informed.

10 Rules in Boosting the Immune Health
  1. High-quality protein supply
  2. WHole cereals intake, rich supply of vitamin B complex
  3. Vegetables, fruits, and mushroom
  4. Garlic, onion, and ginger into a diet
  5. Less oil and fried foods: reduce 20% of oil intake everyday could increase 40% of immune function
  6. Less sugar intake. Prevent to drink or eat sugar-added drink and foods Reduce 100 grams of sugar intake everyday could increase 50% of white blood cells function
  7. Probiotics
  8. Multiple vitamins and minerals supplements
  9. One apple or pear per day
  10. Hydration


What Filipinos Got Right and Wrong About Nutrition Knowledge

Majority of the Filipino respondents (85%) falsely believe that one needs sufficient calcium intake at any age to optimize peak bone mass for bone health.

When it comes to fats, 68% got it right that fats provide the body with energy but only 42% correctly believed that it helps the body absorb vitamins.

80% correctly said that exercise helps the body rebuild muscles and increase lean muscles. However, 51% of falsely believe that protein powder is not a healthy source of protein as compared to a protein found in natural foods.

94% of the Filipino consumers were right in their belief that fruits and Vitamin C supplements can help boost immunity and resistance to infection. Among the APAC respondents, they were the highest in this belief.


Online Myths and Misinformation: Top Barrier to Gaining Accurate Nutrition Knowledge

While 47% of Filipino consumers believed that it is extremely important to be educated with proper and accurate nutrition knowledge, they also said that too much misinformation and myths online prevent them from gaining accurate nutrition knowledge (39%).

The other top barriers were lack of information from government websites and health authorities (22%) and the lack of information from healthcare professionals (17%).


Filipino consumers, however, expressed that they believe in the importance of balanced nutrition. It is among the top three nutrition advice that they were most interested in along with how to improve ailment/condition through nutrition and managing weight through nutrition.
