We are original members of Planet Fitness, living close by and having joined this club brand new when the paint was barely dry on the walls.We've seen the place go through the start up trials of any new business and go through some changes in management as the owners have looked for the correct "fit". They've found a gem in the current manager Chelly who has worked hard to make Planet Fitness settle in and become a comfortable part of the neighborhood. Without fail you are greeted with a friendly "hi!' whenever you go in, as well as being wished a "good day!" when your workout is complete. My job is sedentary in nature, so I really need a place to get some exercise in surroundings I can be comfortable in. This club has all of that.I actually look forward to going to work out (I know...right?? :-) ) It doesn't matter who you are, that's the great thing. Everyone is welcome, whether they be a young weight lifter type, a middle aged guy like myself, or a senior trying to stay active. No one looks at you funny or judges you. Men and women of all ages, shapes, and sizes are there everytime I go in. The equipment is basic compared to some fitness centers, but it's kept in great condition and is more than sufficient. If you want a pool, or a hot tub, or jacuzzi, or any of those frills this probably wouldn't be the place for you. BUT, if you want to get a good workout that will leave you feeling great, then go into their clean locker room and have a hot shower before going on with your day (or night - they are open 24 hrs through the week), and do it all on a budget, you can't beat Planet Fitness. They even offer free fitness classes with the basic membership. There are a couple of plans available, of which that basic one creates NO committment. In other words, you can sign up for a month and if you don't like it you can walk away no questions. That was what sold me on it initially ,as I did NOT want to get tied into any long term contract I would have to fight to get out of should it not be for me. I mean...really? Ten bucks to sign up, then only ten bucks a month, and if it's not for you just walk away anytime? Go by and check them out. I really think you will be glad you did.
