I typically go to the location in Columbia, but it's being remodeled so I had the chance to go to…read moreother gyms. This one is far newer, much larger and more spread out. I also appreciated that the TVs didn't have an over abundance of Fox News. That's not the case in Columbia and it feels like being indoctrinated while working out. Cons. The passive aggressive folks in pajamas and bedroom slippers that sit on the machines and give you dirty looks if you attempt to use the machines where they are parked.

Moving in where part of the old Kmart building is, Planet Fitness opened about a week or so ago. We…read moretook advantage of a presale deal they had for getting their black card for $20 a month instead of $25 due to us traveling and wanting access to gyms across the country. When you first walk in you scan your QR code on the app and are free to choose what you want to work on. Being my first time here a gentleman named Ethan showed me around explaining all the amenities and how each station worked. It was a quick 10 min tour but he was very friendly and answered any questions I had. I love that they have a 30 min work out area so you can fit in a quick workout on the go and a separate weight area. There's an abundance of cardio equipment, mostly stair climbers and treadmills and stations to clean off the equipment when you're done. They do encourage you to download their app which I found super helpful. It contains your QR code to get in, a meter to show how busy it is so you can plan when to go to best suit your schedule, and several workouts and discounts to take advantage of. There are also QR codes to scan on some machines that show how that equipment works if you're not sure how to use them. Overall I'm looking foreword to making this part of my routine to get in shape and the fact it opened just 5 min away from our house is a huge plus.

This is my home gym, and I love it here. The people are super nice, and super involved. They make…read moreme feel really welcome, and I look forward to going to the gym to see them. The class schedule is great, and has something for everyone, from Yoga and Pilates to Zumba and Spinning and more. Personally I go for the Zumba, I try to hit it every day. The best thing is that the classes are included with your membership, I've noticed some gyms charge extra for that. This one does not. They offer membership plans that work with most anyone's budget, including college students at E-town. There is the option to work closely with a personal trainer as well, for an extra charge, depending on who you decide to go with. There is a large cardio area in the front, weights in the back, full locker rooms, and a private women's only work out/weight area. There's also a smoothie bar (which I've yet to try), and complimentary coffee! I would recommend this gym to anyone, especially someone with an interest in taking classes.

The parking lot is huge and there is no problem. The courts are well maintained. The space between courts is manageable. There is a stadium court with bleachers. We didn't play there.

The staff is very friendly, and then I used one of the places to use my laptop and got the wifi password as well. There is a pro shop that carries a lot of tennis essentials and racquets, a stringing machine too. They do carry occasional racquets on sale.

As a Hempfield resident for 15 years I've had many interactions with the Rec Center. While I've…read morenever been a member, I've attended free classes when they were available, went on a bus trip they offered, had my daughter in the after school childcare program they run, as well as a dance class. More recently I've paid a per person daily fee to use the pool, although it does also allow you to use the entire facility. One thing I will say is it is aways crowded, no matter what time or where you are in the building. Classes fill up quick. Swimming classes are booked several months in advance, and the lot is always full. One thing that is disappointing, hence the 4 stars instead of 5 is the before/after school program. While when my daugher was in school it was available to any parent that needed it. Now, they have limited spots and no opening. My grandson has been on a wait list now since August and it's now Feb. That sucks for working parents! And it could very well be a sign of the times post covid, with employee shortages. The indoor pool is wonderful. I have yet, even after all these years been to the one outside in season but I'm sure it's equally as impressive. The indoor pool is large, and while you do need to check the schedule for free swim times, they do have it roped off for laps. I believe it goes to 13' and has a diving board. There's tables/chairs around the pool to put your stuff and a changing area in that area. There is also locker rooms down the hallway. The ladies has a dry sauna, showers, and a machine that rings out your suits. I especially like that pool toys, floats, and swim aids are allowed, as I take my three young grandchildren, none of which can swim. You do need to bring your own towels, etc. I do think the pricing is high for membership as well as a $10/per person daily rate if like me you just stop in to use the pool. The $10/pp was firm, even for my one grandson who is an infant. Still a great place to patronize. Check their website because they are very community minded and some of their special events do not require membership although they might have a small fee.
