    Still in business after the covid shutdown…read more Great atmosphere, great session. Oh, you will work.. sweat and need water. You will also feel more able when you leave. I've never boxed before, they take it slow and work with you. The trainer is great; he has loads of energy and keeps you moving. Definitely headed back. Driving directions will lead you to the back of the building. The boxing yard entrance is on the corner.

    Want to try one of the toughest workouts in Jacksonville? This is your place. I workout 2-3 times a…read moreweek in a regular gym and I thought I was in decent shape. Completely humbled by the hour long session here. Made me realize I'm not in as good as shape as I thought I was. The yard is completely unassuming, grungy, hot and humid, beat up, ghetto, old school, and hidden off the side of the road in an old warehouse in springfield. Perfect. Monday through Thursday from 6pm - 7pm and Saturday from 9am - 10am you get an hour long intense cardio workout with a mixture of different exercises that Hector will break you down with. Want to take a break or rest a little without being told to? Be ready because Hector will get on your ass immediately and get you going again! These hour long sessions are a group fitness class that combines fundamental boxing techniques with calisthenic (bodyweight resistance) exercises to improve stamina, power, and tone. Expect a full-body workout through various boot-camp-style drills, shadowboxing, jumping rope, footwork, punching heavy bags, and abdominal exercises. Memberships consists of $10 drop-in, $99 monthly, or $299 for personal training. It's a blast and I can't wait to train here more often. Lots of good people here in a friendly competitive environment where everyone wants to push themselves to the max. Don't worry if you've never boxed before. Things to know and bring: Get a set of decent boxing gloves (I paid 40 bucks for mine and they work just fine - 16oz Title Classic gloves - I'm 5'10" 180lbs), hand wraps (not required but can help with the bags after repeated hitting), bring lots of water, bring a towel, yoga matt if you have one for the ab session at the end, good workout shoes, light workout clothes, come motivated, geared up to sweat, and ready to work your ass off.

    This club has by far been the worse of them that I have been attached too! I moved here late Dec…read moreand switched clubs over. I got into a horrible car accident and called in to freeze the membership not even cxl. The manger refuses to talk to customers and send messages through the employees. Female stated my freeze would be handled and that was it. It is March and this club is still trying to get money from account and I have not been since Jan because I'm unable too. Called again and he/she refuses to talk the call. If I could far it negative for the customer service alone I would. DO BETTER

    So far so good! I'm really excited to have moved to a fabulous Planet Fitness location. The…read moregentleman at the front desk was all smiles and super friendly. Clean Clean Clean!! The woman's restroom had a tiny bit of trash but nothing I wouldn't fault them for in the big picture. I never knew how important windows would be to the overall feel but they are plentiful and it is so bright. Lots of space which means more available equipment. The abs and 30 minute areas are well maintained. I've been to some locations that seem to let these areas go. The black card spa...WOW! It has low lighting and a really inviting atmosphere. All the tanning beds and stand-ups look new (I haven't used them to tell if all the bulbs are working). The location is easily accessible from any of the surrounding roads. Plenty of parking. Overall, I can't wait to get back to the gym, especially at this good looking Planet Fitness.
