My Return to Planet Fitness: First Impressions
The Planet Fitness I visited sits in a strip mall and once housed a Walmart many years back.
Signing up was a breeze. I told the guy I just wanted to train for the day, and he said they had a free day pass for potential new members that I could use.
I said I wasn’t interested in joining, just training for the day.
“That’s cool. You can still use the free day pass. Have a great workout!” he replied. No upsell. No pushing me to join.
Nice.
Had I joined up, I could have bought a year’s membership for $15 a month, plus a $59 start-up fee and a $49 annual fee. Added altogether, that comes out to $24 a month for a year. It’s a good deal; many gyms are double and even quadruple that.
