I've been to Planet Fitness a handful of times while visiting my parents. I can't speak to the full…read moremembership benefits, but I like that there are drop-in option available. For only $10 (the franchise has increased this price from $5), you can get 24-hour access to the facility. I've been able to "double dip" by going twice in the same period, so the price balances out. They also are open 24 hours from Monday thru Friday, so that is pretty convenient! What I like about Planet Fitness is its core value proposition, a judgement-free zone. When you walk in, there is someone at the front to greet you and check you in. After that, you're free to go exercise! The front part of the gym contains cardio machines, such as stationary bicycles, treadmills, and stair steppers. Note there is not a cardio rowing machine, which I was a little bummed about. All cardio machines have controls to listen in to the television hanging off the ceiling, with a variety of options to choose from. Beside cardio machines are strength machines heavily labelled, which is super helpful if you're new to the gym. Like most strength machines, there is signage demonstrating how to properly use it and which muscles they work. Everything is adjustable for different body types. There's a zone I'm not familiar with, but I believe it's an express workout area. Beside it is an area designated for abs. I like it because there are also mats for floor exercises and medicine balls. Next to the ab area, there's the free weight area. I was surprised that the squat and bench rack were assisted, meaning it's not exactly a "free" weight. On the bright side, if the weight is getting heavy, you can rotate the bar to safely place it back into the rack. There are only a couple of these machines. There's also adjustable cable weight machines and many grips you can swap out to work the muscles you want to focus on in this area. One of my favorite machines is a hidden gem in the corner, an assisted chin up and dip machine. When I first visited this gym, I didn't know it existed because it was up against the wall at the back of the gym. The equipment itself is in good condition and looks like it's well taken care of. Some other gyms I've been to have cushioning falling apart and really looks worn. This Planet Fitness appears to take pride in their equipment. I'll continue to return whenever I am visiting my family.

All I can say is this gym is not for you to bring your kids to because it isn't appropriate. I seen…read morelately so many of these girls in there with these but lifting leggings and if that wasn't enough they now are wearing it so tight that you can see the slit in the front too, like their vee jays are munching on the leggings. They want attention, usually wearing blue or green leggings, makeup and some of them even are showing cleavage. It's annoying especially if you have young daughters who don't need to be around disgraces like that. They usually are at squat machines or bending down in an exaggerated way by cable machines constantly, all the ones that wear these clothes do the same thing. They need to have a dress code and none of that allowed to show. How would they like it if as a guy, I walked in with tights and the outline of my tip was showing? It's not ok and it isn't ok for the girls either. Do something about it because many are sick of seeing it. Easy to spot, just look for makeup and attention seeking behavior and you will see the leggings.
