Is it even worth updating a review if you're going to give the same number of stars? Let's find…read moreout. I took a break from Planet Fitness during peak COVID. I rejoined in January and visit almost daily. The good: -It's reliably easy to find open, available equipment. -The hours are good. -The music mostly doesn't suck (but I still bring ear buds and my own playlist). -It's close to home. -I can't beat $10 a month (though they've raised rates for new members). The less good: -Overall upkeep of equipment isn't fast or great. I have to check treadmills to see if they're level before starting a workout. It took months for a soap dispenser to be replaced in the women's locker room. The scales were removed (with no plans to replace them) from the locker rooms. -There is absolutely *zero* enforcement of the rules unless you complain to a staff member. People are constantly FaceTiming or listening to their music without ear buds. Staff members will walk by and not address it, which sucks for those of us who don't want to be on camera with someone's BFF or situationship or listen to someone's going out playlist from 2003. I'm not planning on leaving anytime soon, so clearly the cheap monthly rate and tolerable atmosphere has a hold on me, but it would be nice to see some actual engagement from the staff in making this a better experience.

I will not be bullied by an abusive member at this club. And no, a confrontation by a man trying to…read moreintimidate a female member off a machine by standing next to her and staring her in the face is not a disagreement between "two reasonable adults." And no, I didn't start it. Nearly every day, the seated leg press machine is constantly in use. There is only one machine of this exact kind, and it's a popular machine. I have to wait more than 1/2 hour for it sometimes. This includes waiting for people scrolling their phones, talking to their friends, etc. So when I finally do get to use it, I'd appreciate it if I didn't have a club member in his undershirt staring me in the face. When I told him to move away, he resorted to a series of insults that were reported to management. I really don't know what his psychiatric situation is or how long he's been a member. No one should have to tolerate this, and it should not be dignified as "two reasonable adults." He's clearly used to getting his own way. he was sneering the rest of the time he was there, occupying said machine for a long time. If I'm spoken to like this again, it will be a police matter. Nor should your desk or housekeeping staff have to tolerate anything like this. Thank you.

I rode my bike across the state of Iowa in a recreational bike ride now for the past two years and have trained for and completed multiple Chicago marathons. I exercise at the local YMCA 3-4 times a week and go to hot yoga classes at least three times a week in addition to running and biking every chance I get....With all that said, NONE of this prepared me for what I experienced when I met Brian and walked into Techny Fitness! I was naively skeptical that Brian could teach this aging old dog new tricks. But Brian is a fitness guru and has showed me exercises I never knew existed. I've worked muscles I never knew I had. After five sessions at Techny Fitness I feel like I've accomplished more than five months solo at the YMCA. He's always got a new piece of equipment to show me or a new routine that completely blows my mind and exhausts my body. Brian has over ten years experience as a personal trainer, and has an endless wealth of knowledge when it comes the human anatomy, diet and of course training the body. The facility is located in a racket ball court with forty foot ceilings in a cool, dry basement. Well lit, always clean, perfect conditions for a big dude like myself who sweats constantly during rigorous workouts. I love his circuit style of training. He isolates muscles at times and completely mixes it up other times. He has taught me the key to seeing results is confusing the body and not letting it get used to a routine of always doing the same things. He trains men and woman ten years younger than me and also folks who are 10-20 years older than me. Each person is different and I see that he takes the time to understand each individuals goals and caters the exercise routine accordingly. If you're looking for real results and are willing to put in the effort, this is your one stop gym! Thank you, Brian!

I took both of my boys and they love it. The weekly sessions have already helped them gain strength and endurance, and this cross-training has helped them in their other sports of swimming and basketball. My swimmer has gained upper body strength in short amount of time and this has helped him in his butterfly stroke and my baller has picked up the endurance he needs to play basketball for the full-hour without getting tired. This is a fantastic gym, everyone who comes in is super friendly, and Marco is super trainer! I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to learn boxing, anyone who is looking to cross-train with their main sports, anyone is just looking for a great, intense workout and anyone who is also looking to gain discipline through a martial arts. While most people don't think of boxing as a martial art, it is a unique sport that has one of the best all around body work-outs and Marco is the best to get the best out of anyone who comes through the doors of his gym. Highly recommend this to anyone and twice on Sunday.

This is a family owned business that deserves every 5 star review this town can offer. They offer a free workout before you sign up. They have Yedi nicknames for everyone which is super cute. Mine is Wonder Woman. They keep score on a board and encourage you as you progress. If I skip a few days, I know I'll get a text from Mo (owner) to stop in. It's a mix of cardio and kickboxing for all age groups. They help me modify the workouts if anything gets too complex for me.
