It may have been larger, but they had so many machines that were in disrepair that you can't even count those. - Convenient hours. What's more convenient than 24/7, even on holidays? - Quality of equipment. On one hand, its very satisfying working out with a simple barbell or dumbbell, and this gym has plenty of those. I believe they have three different sets of dumbbells and more barbells than I've seen in larger, commercial gyms. On the other hand, this place also has unique equipment that I've not seen elsewhere if you're looking for a bigger variety of a workout. The only downside is the cost -- its definitely more expensive than commercial gyms, but I honestly believe you get what you paid for here. The convenience of hours, the quality of equipment, and the helpfulness and friendliness of the people make it well worth it.

Let me start off by saying I originally always said i will never go to planet fitness. Well…read moreunfortunately the gym I been going to for 20 years closed the door and I had to look for other option. I chose planet fitness because of the location, price, and I'm no longer really looking to lift stupid heavy weight anymore since I don't want another surgery. To my surprise it's not that bad. It's never over crowded to the point where I start getting annoyed. It actually is kinda nice with people not slamming weights and screams. I mean you still have a few douches here and there but it's not bad. Also I go at 6pm which is usually the busiest time to go to a gym. As for the pricing I got on when they were running a special $0 down and $10 a month. That really is unbeatable. I also love the fact that it's literally two minutes from my house. So all in all if your looking for a laid back, inexpensive, clean gym I would recommend it. If you're looking for a place to lift heavy and grunt like an idiot this is probably not the spot for you. Oh and by the way I'm not eating a tootsie roll geez lol

The front desk staff was friendly and introduced me to a membership director. I wasn't looking for a long term membership as I live far away, but was willing to pay a guest fee. He mentioned a three day free pass they offer to try out the gym and it worked out great. Now, that's customer service. Over the three days I found the gym to be clean, well maintained, tons of equipment and weights to use, and a varied crowd size depending on the time I was there. Never seemed overcrowded to me and the members were considerate. This is the type of gym you join to really train and not just goof around. Plus, they offer merchandise and training accessories, protein and energy drinks, etc. Plenty of classes to join for cardio needs. Decent hours daily and on weekends. From beginners to seasoned bodybuilders this is a great facility to get in your fitness goals.

So like a geek I was. I did the math. $300 for 10 weeks. 50 classes. 5 Days a week is 6.00 a day for 55 minutes. Which is very reasonable considering pilates classes or zumba classes are like 10-15 a class. After 10 weeks, I saw and felt results. Arms and legs wer more toned. Pants and shirts are too big for me. Starting around week 7, my pants were looser on me. It's a very non intimidating environment. There will always be newcomers and "repeaters" in class. The all female instructors are great motivators and will always show low and high impact moves. Members' fitness ability vary but there is no judgment here. We're all here for our own reasons. I was very comfortable in every session. Orientation: The Sunday before the first class, you will be weighed, measured, get your picture taken and do sit-ups and push-ups. Packets will be handed out about the program and some diet information that will aid in reaching your goals. I personally followed it 80% of the diet they suggested. Come on, I have yelp reviews to write about great places to eat. No one wants to hear about carrots and hummus. At this point, you will need to buy punching gloves. I suggest the ones they have on hand. $40.00. It has a lot of protection when you hit the bag. I looked online and sporting good stores but I liked the one they were offering. Reasonable prices. Week 1 First 10 minutes, I asked myself "Ah crap! what did I get myself into? Sucking air!!!! Face tingled. Week 2 Got sick from a cold. Ab work SUCKS!!!! Pulsing sucks. Toughed it out. Week 3 WTF?? Spiderman push-up?? I can't do that. Push-ups for me. 100 squats?? Crap!!! Still sick. Week 4 Situps are cool. But situp and punch, punch sucks. Push up sucks. Jumping roping is always fun. But another great week. Week 5 Sprained ankle. Missed the entire week. Going through withdrawal. For REAL!! This is the week they do a midpoint assessment. You will get weighed and measurements will be taken to see how you are progressing. The 5 weeks passed, you will see a difference. Week 6 and week 7 was a blur. It went by so fast. Intense stuff Week 8 The good stuff and killer workouts starts here. More cardio. Punch harder. Holding longer. Week 9 CARDIO is more intense with every session. Weights are asked to be a slight heavier than what we started at week 1 & 2. Arms are still burning from upper body workout. Cursing out instructors at this point. Week 10 If I am losing weight, it has to be from sweating too. There's a very very short recovery time. Heart rate is always higher than normal. I cringed when Karen called for 100 Crunches. I sigh when I heard 50 crunches and then another 50 at the end of the session. I come out feeling great and gross from sweating. Final evaluation is on the Sunday after the 10 weeks are over. The winner will win another 10 week session, which is awesome. I will miss the intense workout and the instructors. But if the timing was right, I will do it again in a heart beat.
