Today I walked in an was instructed that I needed to be a sheep and wear a face mask while checking in. Checking in usually takes 5 seconds to scan the card and move on. Once you submit to this social engineering experiment you can take 5 more steps and take the mask off. It takes longer to explain to someone they need a mask to check in than checking in itself. Whoever mandated this rule is a moron and I will be canceling my membership. I hope you go out of business

Has a plenty of cardio equipment and I've never had to wait for any aerobics machines. Limited wieght selection. @ $10 a month the membership is very much worth the price.

I love my planet fitness, and thats how they make me feel when I enter the gym. 24hrs, work out anytime and they have have enough to do what you need to do to work out or maintain the shape you are in or trying to go.

If I could give planet fitness no stars, I definitely would! This has nothing to do with the employees there and I totally understand they are doing their job, but, how can you charge my account for membership when I don't come in because of COVID and you all aren't taking proper precautions! People have to wear a mask coming and going but the mask is optional while working out?! How is that safe for anyone? The only people who should be paying monthly are the people willing to risk it all to come in and work out in an unsafe environment! Also for anyone reading this that agrees with me, no need to try to reach corporate...it all funnels right back to your neighborhood planet fitness...
