    I mean Planet Fitness is just following the business model of every other major gym: get people to sign up, get their credit card so that they can get billed, and not show up to the gym. People forget about paying every month and PF has money coming and people can say they belong to a gym - albeit, they never go to the gym, but hey! I belong to a gym.

    Hating on Planet Fitness is so 2012.


    Blah blah we know you spend $50 more a month for a membership at a better gym. Well pin a rose on your nose.

    What the problem is? Best/cheapest gym I've ever belonged to. Very happy with them.

    Love everything about PF.
    I've gone almost every day since I bought my membership a couple of months back. Best decision I've ever made.

    Here we go again hating PF. If you don't like it, DON'T GO! I like it it for being a "non-gym" that you all think it is and serving pizza one night a month. Oh yeah, they do that to keep all of us that go there real fat. Oh, they don't force it down my throat either. Yes, PF is a "non-gym" and they should all be closed. Oh yeah, damn it, I was there this morning and had a Tootsie Roll on the way out. What a bad thing for a gym to do. Shame on them.

    I love PF. I am a member and lost all of my weight there. I use the free personal training. I do however skip the pizza and bagel thing. I don't even go to the gym on those days. No need for temptation.

    The only good thing about planet fitness is that it keeps the "bucket of crabs" people out of real gyms where people want to make real progress!

    So you're saying ppl that use PF don't make progress?

    You can read the story of a bucket of crabs online. Basically, crabs pull each other down when one tries to escape the bucket. The people who blare the "lunk alarm" and run defamatory commercials and seek to demean fit people are these crabs. They actually kick fit people out of that "gym," which really doesn't help anyone. Many very nice, helpful fit people have helped me to grow and get better over the years. I have made a lot of progress because of fit people. But the culture at planet fitness is pathetic. That "lunk alarm" is the dumbest thing I've ever seen.

    Have you ever actually been to a PF?

    Cause the 3-4 that I have been to are nothing like that...at all..

    You still didn't answer my question. ???? I worked for a "real" gym years ago part time for close to 6 years. It amazed me at how many ppl kept coming in, yet never changed their appearance. I think your theory is a lil distorted. For 10 bux a month, you can't beat it. It has everything i need. If i wanted to belong to a meat head gym, I would join one. Next!

    Been called crabby, but never a crab. And I guess the 15lbs I have lost in the last 6 weeks isn't real progress :grumble:

    I've been at my PF for a little over two years and have yet to hear a "lunk alarm" go off. There are some pretty big boys in there and I have never seen one thrown out for being big. I'm happy with the place and for 10 bucks a month, you can't beat it.

    Did they tie you down and force you to eat that Tootsie Roll? If they did, I'd like video, please. :wink:
