- Most PF locations are open 24/7 so I can go whenever I want. While they don’t provide childcare, they are always open so I can go when it works for me. I prefer to go in the evening, and it doesn’t matter how late that might be, they are open for me!
- Planet Fitness is known for the “Judgement Free Zone.” No one is judging (or cares) what shape you are in. Most people are regular people like you and me just trying to get in better shape. The staff is friendly and so happy to help with any questions or instructions about how machines work. In my experience all the other people working out are friendly too. I find that when I go at the same time every day I recognize most people there, so it’s fun to see my “gym buddies.”
- Planet Fitness is cheap (in the most positive sense of the word). Planet Fitness is only $10 a month! Plus, on April 4th for one day only you can join for $1 and pay $10 a month for no commitment! Awesome, right? I love that I can easily fit my gym membership in my monthly budget. There is also a PF Black Card® that is $19.99 and includes additional amenities such as the ability to bring a guest every day at no additional charge, access to all 1,000+ Planet Fitness locations, use of massage chairs and beds, and more. Either plan is an amazing deal! PF even made a link just for my followers so you can enter your email for a reminder.
- There are tons of TV’s playing a lot of different types of shows while you work out so the entertainment is there. I’m always occupied. Plus, there is free Wi-Fi in most locations so if you want to bring your own device to jam to your own tunes, you can! I have found that when I’m hitting a mental wall watching the shows they have available helps me keep my mind off the workout and distracts me enough to break through and reach my goals.
- I love all the equipment available and that they have a ton of it. My favorite machine is the Arc Trainer and it must be a lot of people’s favorite as well but since there are so many there is always at least one available for me. They also have two rows of treadmills. They have duplicates of most of the weight machines. I also really love the circuit training they have. There is one circuit that is a strength and cardio workout and it works on a red light/ green light system so you are at each station for a short time. The other circuit works your abs and has several machines to work the different muscles in your core. For my own gym schedule I have one day be a circuit day.
If you are wanting to try something new to help yourself get into shape, are wanting to join a gym or just looking for a place to workout every once in a while, Planet Fitness is for you. With no pressure, no intimidation, tons of equipment and entertainment you will feel like you belong and can get an awesome workout. I know I feel so much happier when I visit Planet Fitness several days a week.

I was just looking at their deals a couple of weeks ago. I was going to take advantage of one for my son but it was over and the one that replaced it was substantially more. This is great timing for me.

I was thinking about joining Planet Fitness, at least for the winter months when it’s freezing in MN… I’ll have to check it out!
Grace says
Seriously SOOO worth it!!! And you HAVE to use the hydro water massage bed (Hahahaha I think that’s what it’s called) and massage chair!! I use the total body enhancement too!
Heather says
I like that it’s a judgement free zone. Who needs to be judged when they are going to try and improve themselves.
Tori Gabriel says
This sounds like a great gym. I always worry about other people saying something so I’ve always been too intimidated to join. I love the “no gymtimidation” signs.
Heather S-G says
I haven’t been to the gym in years, but my husband started going to PF a few weeks ago and keeps telling me we should join. I’ve been hesitant, but maybe I’ll take advantage of the 4th and surprise him!

I have heard nothing but great things about Planet Fitness. I don’t think we have them here in Canada though, I will have to check them out.

I miss Planet Fitness but we don’t have one near us anymore. They always were so awesome.
Claudia Krusch says
We have one near us! I need to check it out! Thank you for sharing it!

I really wish that I had a Planet Fitness near my house. The closest one is 10 to minutes. Most of the other gyms have dropped their price in order to compete.
Debra P says
I like the idea of no gymtimidation. I remember when I used to go to the gym religiously, but now I’m doing a home routine and cycling when possible. It just was hard for me to fit in and keep it up. Thanks!
Tiffany says
I’ve heard really good things about Planet Fitness, but we are not close to one. I do enjoy the gym that I just started going to. I think enjoying the gym is important!
Shaney Vijendranath (youbabyandi) says
We got a few in my city but never went to one, to be honest, but after reading this, I will definitely check them out soon.
Chantal says
It is so important to feel comfortable at your gym! They have great prices, it is so easy to over pay for a gym membership.
Vidya Sudarsan says
There is a Planet Fitness near my home. I did know about these facts. I don’t like it when I am forced to pay in advance for a whole year. Also, love the way this place looks. I will be motivated to workout here.
Peachy @ The Peach Kitchen says
I’m thinking about joining the gym and I just wish there’s a planet fitness here too where I can go at my convenient time.
