    Can you just walk in, grab pizza and leave? 10 dollars a month membership may be worth it if I can eat as much pizza as I want for a night.

    A lot of people at my pf are very fit, but they follow the rules, so no one has issues.

    It's only once a month and you don't have to eat it. They started giving away pizza as an appreciation gesture and it stuck.


    I don't get hate on pf honestly. Take it for what it is, a gym for beginners and people that may not feel comfortable at a regular gym.

    So if a steroid using bodybuilder follows the rules, you don't think he'll be shuffled out of there? At least on their commercials, that's how they portray meat heads. Yes lots of meat heads are loud and obnoxious, but you're talking 10 out of 100. The other 90 want to just do their workouts.

    At least at my gym, I've never seen anyone kicked out. Even the people that bring gallon jugs, the girl that wears just a sports bra for a shirt and bros that purposefully dropped weights to piss off the staff. Then again, I doubt a steroid using body builder would be at pf to begin with, since they don't have the really heavy weights.

    No they wouldn't be kicked out. I've go to two different planet fitness locations never saw anyone kicked out. Lots of people doing heavy weights too. One of the locations I go to has squat racks etc. People of all shapes and sizes no one has ever gotten kicked out.

    Dang, I wish I was a manager at Planet Fitness. I would throw people out of the gym left and right.

    Not because they did anything wrong, I would just put on that purple polo shirt and go on a massive power trip.

    I'd eat it in the squat rack. Oh wait...they don't have one, do they? What's the point of free pizza if I can't eat it between heavy squats. I dunno.

    do you ever do wrist curls in the squat rack just to piss people off ??

    yeah, me neither

    The most annoying thing I do is bring a bench between the cable machines (against the wall) to do my heavy hip thrusts. Everyone says they "don't mind" though.

    I used to go to Planet Fitness and never understood why a fitness place encouraged the eating of what I would consider "junk food". It's all good I guess! Enjoy! ;)

    It's Called Job Security!!! LOL :smiley:

    I'm getting my pizza on tonight. I'd eat it at the gym. They have tv and couches. I don't have tv. Can you drink whiskey at PF as well?

    I have always wondered at what point they ask members to leave, once they are fit and ruin the atmosphere for the non-fit members.

    All I got out of this is now I am effing hungry for pizza... thin crust with pepperoni and green olive .. if they served that kind there, I would probably sign up.
