Very friendly staff. It is always a plus. Relaxed atmosphere and love the hours of operation…read more Equipment is very general to what you will find in major gyms. Even the way gym is divided into sections , reminds me of YouFit and Lafitness. However, they do not provide classes like yoga, Zumba, or step... so if you are into that you will need another gym. Planet fitness in texas didn't have showers nor change rooms so I am glad this one does. they do have vip (black card) option which offers you a body massage and tanning.

The issues I bring up in this review I brought up in my cancellation notice, so this location…read moreshould theoretically be aware of these concerns. The biggest problem at this Planet Fitness is that the staff exists to keep the equipment clean, and does not really enforce any of the gym's own quality of life rules that keep any gym a reasonable place to work out. There is a professionalism problem at this location. I nicknamed this location "Planet Cellphone", because it is the poster child for how smartphones have made the experience of working out much worse for people at the gym. Every gym has to deal with this problem, and there is no exception to it. The biggest issue at this gym is the unwillingness of its staff to enforce rules to keep phone conversations in the lobby or shut down anyone who has the temerity to use their phones to view videos or listen to music without headphones. Several times I asked staff to ask other gym goers to get off their phones while working out on machines next to me. Only twice did staff actually do it, while the other four or five times they thanked me for bringing it up and did nothing. To make matters worse, one of the two times staff did intervene, they had walked by, twice, a person talking on their phone on the treadmill *in front of the sign that says no phone conversations except in the lobby*. When I pointed this out to them, they got annoyed and argued briefly before getting the person to end their conversation. As a result of the staff's apathy towards cell phone conversations in the gym and resistance to enforcing rules, it is not uncommon for as many as half a dozen people to be on their phones while you're working out around them gym. Sometimes these conversations are being had on speakerphone, which is unreal because these annoying conversations are from everything to discussions of how to access their home WiFi (including speaking out loud their passwords) to results of medical tests for sexually transmitted diseases. I worked out next to this girl who called her boyfriend while on one of the Smith machines, and she had a conference call out loud with someone else. In the aerobics room to the side of the gym, a lady who seemed to be a psychologist was having an appointment there, in the gym, for everyone to hear. In the aerobics room, people will put their speakerphones on full blast and play workout videos without headphones, so you have to hear them blowing out their cellphone speakers while they play something off YouTube. And this apathy from staff then extends to texting on machines, which is big trouble with machines when there's only one type of it in the gym. It's not uncommon for someone to text between sets, only to take like 10 minutes between reps because they lose track of time on the machine. This is a noted problem in all gyms, and it's not uncommon for 24 Hour Fitness, YMCA, LA Fitness, and other chains to put up signs on commonly used machines to warn gym goers not to sit on the machines and text as if they were furniture between sets, and to let others get sets in while they cool down from their own. All these problems stem from staff and management. They should be enforcing their own established gym rules and create larger signs and notices governing cellphone use in the gym. It's an obvious quality of life problem everywhere, but where this Planet Fitness is unique is that their staff does nothing about it and will ignore or even argue with a gym goer who asks them to enforce their own rules. You can see these problems start with the staff at the front desk. I don't know how many times I've seen staff with their backs to the gym, facing away while on their cellphones. It's so unprofessional. They turn around when someone comes in, they check them in, say hi, and then turn around right back to their cellphones. I did not see a single personal trainer in the gym the whole 15 months or so I was there, so I don't know if the staff is bored or simply does not care (I don't know what they make, so this would become an issue if they are paid too little). They're all mostly nice, and a few are even helpful - shout out to Austin and Spencer. But there's clearly a culture of apathy towards the running of the gym with staff and management, which in my experience starts at ownership. I changed gyms in March and the difference is stark. I was going to keep going to Planet Fitness because of the cost, but once my insurance was no longer paying for it, I found that I was not able to justify putting up with the issues I detailed above. At my new gym, the staff is so much more responsive to basic problems and while there's always going to be an issue with people treating the gym like their living room, I don't have to hesitate to bring it up with the staff. I also have a sauna now, which was the other major motivation for paying more for my gym. I don't hold this against Planet Fitness at their price point, though.
