Planet Fitness

  • Anyone else go to this gym?

    I love it. I think its mainly an East Coast thing. I haven't really looked on the website to see where all the gyms are. I do know that there are about 250 locations. They're the next big thing thats up and coming here in NC. I think they've opened at least two or three in a 20 mile radius where I live.

    I love it! It's always great to go into a new gym with brand new equipment. It's spacious, the people are friendly and their slogan is "This is the judgment free zone!"

    I went with my best friend and her mom today. We did a mile and a half on the treadmill did the 30 minute circuit training!

  • I'm in FL and we had one when I was living in a larger city....it was nice...basically because it had everything I needed and was only $15/month...which is bargain pricing...though they are a franchise so pricing varies from location to location...also...they have no contract....so it's easy to get out of
  • We have them in KS too -- I went to one with a couple of my friends for a tour -- I didn't sign up because I have a gym at my apt complex -- but they did. It looked pretty nice to me. There were quite a few overweight women there working out. It was cheap too -- I think maybe $15.00 a month or something like that. Hey, looks like I was right -- from what gatoramanda said.
  • Oh man, there are none where I live! I've been wanting to join a gym but have never been and am afraid - I love this gym's slogan! I guess I can hope they start one here soon!
  • haha there is one near where I work but it has been a vacant building with a sign reading "low prices! call for details!" for about 9 months so I have major doubts that it is actually opening!

    there are others around here, though, that seem totally legit! I'm stilll a hardcore Bally's girl bc after 3 years of dedication, I pay only $20 a month, so why give that up??

  • I'm glad you found a gym you like!!
    We have a Planet Fitness like 5 minutes from us! I'm not a member, but have friends/neighbors who are and love it there. DH and I are going to join together when we pay off a bit of debt
  • There's one in a city two hours from me and the initial fee is 50 bucks, then only 5 dollar a month! But, there's not one here. I'm moving soon though so pft... Hopefully there will be one wherever I end up.
  • ya know what theres one in the next city over i keep telling my dh we need to go to while we have the inlaws to watch the kids

    You guys definitely should. Everyone I've talked to that goes there LOVES it. And its amazingly cheap... with no contract and a fixed rate guaranteed for 5 years!

    For those of you that don't have them close by, I'm sure its only a matter of time. They're popping up everywhere around here!
  • They've just opened one here..I am definitely going to have to go and check em out now.
  • I go to planet fitness and just love it. It is open 24 hours during the week so sometimes I go late at night. When I signed up at the beginning of the year I paid $99 for an entire year membership! It is a really nice gym. Lots of machines, I never have to wait to get on one I want.

    Ohhhh lucky! The one here isn't 24 hours!
  • There is one here in GA. I loved it!! It was only $58 to start, $10 a month and I believe, $20 fee (annually, to lock in rate). There was no contract or anything. It was open 24 hours during the week, so if me and the bf got in a tiff, I was able to go blow off some steam.

    Unfortunately, I moved and the location is no longer convenient .
  • My daughter (20) is joining one today... She is Down in NC too..
  • Yea I just joined one in NC today. They had a special today only and I got signed up for only $1, and I only have to pay $10/month.
