No Frills Fitness Manassas VA

by beltpack , Sep 11 '09
Pros: Clean, roomy, plenty of cardio, free weights, cable machines, weight and ab benches. Great price.
Cons: I admit it's hard not to grunt (LOL!).
I'm really happy with my Planet Fitness. It's clean, roomy and well-equipped. The atmosphere is good for FITNESS. I do a cardio machine to start (5 types of machines available, including treadmills) then mostly free weights and cables, focussing on one ...

WASTE OF MONEY

by sbradshaw , Aug 10 '09
Pros: Clean toilets
Cons: You will never be comfortable in the "Judgement free zone"
My husband and I joined planet fitness despite many negative reviews we had heard from other people. We really thought it couldn't be that bad. We went 5 times and my husband was talked to about setting a rubber weight down on the rubber mat. Apparently- ...

For the everyday person, NOT FOR BODYBUILDERS or experts

by nlkflint , Jun 13 '09
Pros: Lots of cardio with TV's.  Equipment and people not intimidating.
Cons: If you are a bodybuilder looking for extremes in weights, not for you. 
A great place for an everyday person to work out.  Barebones.  Equipment. No fluff, no frills.  No classes, no daycare--which is great as I don't need it. The weights don't go very high, so NOT FOR BODY BUILDERS.  More for the ...

Pros: It's the puppy mill of gyms
Cons: crowded, no frills equipment
I was looking for a cheep gym where I can go to after work where I can get in a 1 hour weight session with my teenage son.  I didn't need or want to pay for any fancy "perks".  Basically I was just looking for a gym of the equivalent of one ...

Planet Fitness is HORRIBLE!

by daniellemr85 , Apr 20 '09
Pros: Large number of cardio machines, but only 3 different types: more variety is needed!
Cons: Rude and incompetent staff, no classes, not "judgement free"
I signed up for this gym in October because I wanted something different from what I was used to, but after a while it got very boring to work out there. Yeah, it was great to get to watch TV while working out, but I had to stop going. The people who ...

Excellent Value

by conzac , Apr 18 '09
Pros: Clean, well equiped.  Helpful staff. The price can't be beat.  There is also no contract.
Cons: If you're looking for classes, you'd be better off somewhere else.
I just joined the PF in Brockton, MA.  The gym has everything you need unless you're a competitive body builder or world class athlete. There is at least two machines and sometimes four, for every exercise. The locker rooms and ...

Planet fitness Maryland

by towsongirl1990 , Jan 28 '09
Pros: Cheap
Cons: Credit Card numbers are thrown everywhere, contracts are lost continuously
As an employee I am very disapointed in what I got myself into.  I am a poor college student at Towson University trying to juggle 18 credits and a part time job. Our planet fitness opened a few months ago, and I was told that I would ...

Beware of big promises

by ebbz24 , Dec 20 '08
Pros: Pay the $50 startup and go with the $10 month plan.
Cons: Dealing with the staff is like dealing with a high preasure car dealer.
Everything look good as you drive by that big sign on the side of the road, and what's not good about a gym that only charge $10 a month? Thats what my wife thought when a friend asked her to go to the gym with her. I am not a big gym fan, I really ...

Judgement Free Zone.... Yeah Right!

Pros: Cheap Price, No Contract
Cons: Lack of Management accountability, subtle discriminatory policies, inexperienced staff.
I am a Planet Fitness member who was asked to remove my toboggan while working out last night at the gym.  I was told wearing a toboggan is prohibited inside the gym.  Alternatively, I was advised that baseball caps are permitted in the gym, ...

LIES LIES LIES! From Spider Man no less!!!!

by yont , Nov 11 '08
Pros: I can not recommend any advantages of joining this gym.

Their inability to process a simple request.
On the 25th of Sep 2008 I accompanied my boyfriend to the Planet Fitness branch in Claremont (Cape Town SA) in order for him to cancel his contract. He was asked to submit his request in writing which he then did, and handed to the person at the ...

Why all the hate? I love it here (Overland Park, KS).

by vandal913 , Sep 23 '08
Pros: -price-amount of equipment-diverse crowd-clean
Cons: -could use another water fountain-need dumbbells heavier than 75 lbs.-'lunk alarm' is annoying
I see a whole lot of negative reviews for Planet Fitness, and I really don't understand. Maybe I'm just lucky to have a good location, but I've always thought it was a great place to workout for somebody such as myself, who doesn't need a bunch of ...

Pros: price, cleanliness, quality and quantity of machines, customer service
