Taking that pizza IS technically stealing. You didn't earn it like the members did.

i did earn it, i went and didn't work out just like them, i'm within the rights of earning the pizza

How is it a scam?

Honestly planet fitness is the gym for people who really don't take fitness seriously period whether big or small.

When they first came around I saw more moms who try to get a quick work out in, fat folks and people in ok shape just wanting to do cardio .


My life changed once I walked into worlds gym and saw these body builders
I went to planet fitness because it was the nearest gym by my house .

I always hated the fact there was no free weights .

As much as I hated squats I had to do them and I don't like the smith machine .

I was a member for about 9 months. It was fine with me. I had to adjust my workout a little with the lack of a bench press but other than that I was good.

I couldn't be a member for a long period of time, but for a year it would be no problem.

When I was there, I worked out and didnt eat any of their food. Guess I got strong willpower the point of a gym is to workout & lose weight...

Trashiest gym. Weight go up to 70lb. Frail ass shyt

Planet Fitness is a fine place to work out.
It's cheap and frankly unless you're up to 120 lb dumb bell presses
or have a 400 + squat, you're fine with the weight on offer.

At least I know at my planet fitness you can get a great workout in without
breaking the bank.

Planet Fitness's whole business model is setup to cash in on people who are the type to get a membership in January, go for a few weeks and then not go until next january while forgetting to cancel their memberships. The owners of Planet Fitness have admitted this in so many words in several interviews. Its not meant for serious people but those who go to a gym on a whim after thinking "maybe I should work out " and then give up.

People who are serious about working out come everyday, use the machines which drives up maintenance costs, which in turns cost Planet fitness money. The do everything to discourage those people from coming. This is why they don't have dumbbells over a certain size, no squat machines and even have something called a "lunk alarm" if you make too much noise while working out.


Its a literal alarm that goes off if you make too much noise

Also their commercials let you know where they're coming from .

I don't know about other PF's across the country but you can squat at mines
And they rarely sound the "Lunk alarm" unless you're just excessively loud.
However, I also go at night and generally avoid the crowds.

When I worked for LA fitness I would go to the Planet fitness parking lots and get leads

Donuts pizza and candy and they attract a pussified "safe space" community . . not avid gym-goers but people who have low-self-esteem . . trust me you don't wanna share their company
