Seacoast sports clubs include three gyms. This one (Portsmouth Athletic club), Great bay athletic…read moreclub in Newmarket and the Greenleaf facility also in Portsmouth. I like these gyms a lot because of all the group fitness classes offered. Step, combat, boxing, pilates, spin, pump, yoga, Zumba and swimming. They are more fun than the traditional treadmill or weight lifting. Zumba and combat are my favorite. Zumba is just like dancing and you don't feel like you are working out and combat is empowering. At this location they do something called smart start where if you participate in 20 classes in 5 weeks you get a prize like a free massage or an hour with a personal trainer. All the staff is really nice and helpful. Some of the things in the gym could definitely be upgraded. Some of the mats are torn and need replacing and the boxing equipment is pretty beat up but still does the trick. I recommend buying your own mats for yoga or other classes for any gym just because they get used a lot and you will feel more comfortable with your own mat. The womens locker room has recently been upgraded. There are showers and a sauna and a lot of lockers (bring your own lock though) and a room with big mirrors for you to fix your hair and makeup after a workout. Overall this place is great and for the price if you are into group fitness it is worth it because of all the options you have to choose from. If you are 24 or under get your membership before you turn 25 because the rate goes up. Get it cheap now and it stays that way.

I was a member for about seven months after the new ownership took over…read more On March 17 around 2:55 p.m., I had an incident in the sauna where another member returned after an earlier interaction and approached me while I was seated. He stood about 12-18 inches from my face, was speaking loudly, and did not step back after I asked multiple times for space. I was backed into the corner and unable to move away easily. Another member present told him to leave and later said he would vouch for what occurred. After leaving, the individual used a derogatory slur. I reported the incident and followed up with management. The situation was treated as "conflicting accounts," and I was advised to go to staff if something like this happens again. I filed a police report to document the incident and ultimately canceled my membership because I did not feel comfortable returning.

Honestly, I came here once and had the worst experience ever. I never once felt welcomed. They're…read moreso strict for no reason, it's actually uncomfortable. I literally paid for a 24-hour guest pass, and when I came back the next day, they told me I never bought one and ended up double charging me. The workers just lurk around watching people like everyone's doing something wrong. No one's sneaking into your gym, relax. I came here to clear my mind and get a workout in, and instead I left feeling anxious and irritated. Do NOT come here if you want to feel comfortable, you'll just feel like you're constantly being watched and accused of something. Supposed to be a gym, feels like prison.

The locker rooms are clean and well lit and there are 3 showers available. I've never seen anyone waiting for a shower, so even though this isn't as many as some locations, it seems to be enough here. It tends to get busy from 4-6pm here, so like any planet fitness location, I recommend checking the app to see what the crowd level is before going. Since this isn't the biggest location, there can occasionally be a wait for a machine, though I wouldn't say it happens often.
