I’ve cancelled at several locations (moving) and it is unquestionably annoying to have to go in with a letter but I wouldn’t say difficult. They all cancelled me without pushback.

Thanks! PP here, that's good to know

I joined and love it! Clean, friendly, not too crowded, lots of parking, easy to pick up groceries at Lidl afterwards.

Racist? Planet fitness has a wide range of clientele. They don’t have a ton of weight machines (for example, no hack squat machine) but it is a decent gym and low cost.

My son said they have limited machines. He belongs to One Life. I go to Golds.

I think the best gym is the one you consistently use!

Bullsh*t. My neighbor goes there. Super preppy white guy. We were chatting in the neighborhood and he was saying that he recently joined and loved it.

Don't let your biases take over a conversation.

My DH goes to the one in DTSS. His review is “It’s exactly what you’d expect for $10 a month.” It’s perfectly fine if you just need some basic machines and weights and don’t care that it’s slightly crappy.

It’s ghetto

Has anyone been to or joined the new(ish) Planet Fitness in Takoma Park on New Hampshire? Any feedback about that location, or the chain in general?

I'm not looking for a fancy gym, but would like a step up from the YMCA fitness center.
