Planet Fitness - Joliet, IL
Reviews
Well what to say if your a are a guy don't join they have weights that most girls can max out at. The only perk is tanning and massage chair. Dear planet fitness you cant be called a fitness or gym without a proper squat rack or benches... im not joking there's zero weights anywhere. welcome to womens workout world.... run people run!
First, the gym is clean. Equipment is organized in a logical sequence to be used. I especially appreciate the abs area and the 30-minute workout, where I can get a quick workout after a 12-hour shift. Second, I REALLY appreciate that the gym concept is designed to keep all the grunting and snorting bodybuilders away. For the majority of us who do not aspire to be Arnold, all the noise and carrying on from these types can be distracting to a workout. I have previously belonged to gyms who catered to the bodybuilding crowd and the constant dropping of weights and posing to impress others in the gym was nauseating, to say the least. As for the two previous negative reviews, I say go back to your bodybuilding gym. There's one down the street. Third, I like that you can get a fitness trainer to help plan a basic workout without spending a ton of money. For the majority of us who just want to get into better shape and be healthier, we do not need a series of specialized training sessions at an exorbitant cost. Fourth, I like that they are open 24 hours. I work night shift normally and often am awake in the wee hours of the night. A good workout helps me relax. For those of you who just want a great place to get a good workout, Planet Fitness is for you. For those of you who want to win the Mr. World competition, go down the street.
The price might be good, but the staff is always pissy and act like its a burden when you need help!
I am a guy of 210 lbs. This place is great for anyone who wants to work out, get a massage, and tan. Highly recommended...
