Planet Fitness — Attraction in New York

Like many Planet Fitness gyms, this particular location has most of the equipment, machines, free weights and even the space to engage in heavy rope exercises. As their slogan says, no matter your current level of fitness, you'll be entering a judgment free zone.

If cardio is your thing... they got it. Cycles, rowing, stair climbing, elipticals and of course adjustable incline treadmills.

Want to be coached? Check! Just book a session with Alan early mornings or throughout the day.

Only got 30 mininutes? Check! Head upstairs to the yellow circuit area by the windows and engage in a total body conditioning workout. Kick it up a notch and don't skip the quick step platforms. They have a handle bar just incase you need to hold on. You can never be too careful, right?

The purple machines will exercise both sides of your body independently to ensure equal strength development. Upgrade to Black card membership to access the relaxation area to soothe tired muscles from head to ankles. Spend upto 10 minutes tanning and 12 minutes in the vibra massage booth to improve circulation and reduce celulite. Then chill on the comfey black sofas while being entertained by current music artists on one of many large flat screen TVs throughout the facility.

Always clean. Since the incorporation of new COVID protocols, you're reminded to be considerate of other members to keep "it squeaky"... And it is.

No matter what time you drop in, it's never crowded. Personally, I do prefer to exercise around midnight or early. Just fits my schedule. But its open 24-7. So, just drop in. They have replaced all broken locks so your items should be perfectly safe.

I tend not to shower after a workout, due to cold nights and chilly mornings in the Winter as I write this. The water temp could be 3-7 degrees warmer, but then I really prefer hot showers to warm...

So what's missing? No rings. No hanging bars for supine hanging planks. No climbing ropes. No big tires to pick up and push over, or to hit with sledge hammers. No heavy sleigh to push or pull across the floor. Really want those? Join Golds gym instead. I think they folded during the lock downs in Brooklyn.

No swimming pool... The YMCA are about to open up in the Summer just 125 yards away. No sauna too - I expect that the new "Y" should have those facilities for about double the Black card membership price.

Membership pricing? Definately, less than Blink as there's no extra charge levied for personal training sessions.

What's gone? No more bagel and orange juice breakfast Tuesdays or all you can eat Pizza Mondays...

But the fridge with cool drinks remains.

All in all, one of the better big box gyms. Join, use it regularly and transform. Get those natural endorphines flowing. Be stronger. Stand taller. Get leaner.

And smile. Your body will thank you and any mental lethagy will clear. For about $11 to $24pm...

Certain employees are very rude, aggressive and inconsiderate to their members. Overall lack proper customer service. This review goes to the 5'7ish female wearing the headband with her hair clipped in the back during the 12pm-3pm hour. No one greets the members while entering the club anymore? They're focused on their phones and only looks up when they hear the scanner beep. 2.She was spraying/waving the air freshener can directly in front of the members as they're working out which lacks commonsense. No one wants to inhale the chemicals of the powder scented spray while their in mid workout. I mistakenly left my phone in the lockerroom after I left the club. I was out the facility for about 3-5mins before rushing back in to retrieve my phone. Front desk was occupied. I quickly ran in the back lockerroom and found my phone (luckily) and was about to head out. The worker came into the locker room and said "you need to scan in". I explained to her my situation of how I was just working out but I left my phone. I was about to head out. She said "well even if you left, you need to scan again". I told her " okay, but I scan in with my phone but the phone was in the lockeroom, I can scan now". She said in an aggressive tone "well you can provide your number" I told her, I understand that, but in emergency situations you're only thinking about getting your stuff before it gets stolen. She raises her tone and says "WELL IM JUST LETTING YOU KNOW YOU HAVE TO SCAN THATS THE POLICY". Then goes behind the front desk and is loudly gossiping with the other female about the situation. I was taken back of how quickly her tone escalated.I was only trying to explain why I rushed back in and I understand there's a policy but her aggressive tone was completely unacceptable. I shouldn't be yelled at for trying to explain myself. I was focused on retrieving my phone. It definitely makes me want to cancel my membership with PF if this the type of "customer service" the company allows. I could easily go to Blink...

My name is Tommaire Horace and I have a lot of friends here at this location, girl and boys ! The manager lady was on a temporary leave and a African American lady was there until she came back ! The African American lady got into it with a guest I brung into the gym ! That same day got mad I brung 2 people in the gym, I explain to her I didn't know but, since she got into it with my guest she took it out on me and started a argument with me ! Every since then, she made my workout environment toxic and turned two of the workers against me and they started looking and being not nice to me ! One day, I came in the gym one of those two workers said, I was 21 days late paying and I had a late fee ! I said how, that same manager checked me in a couple days ago ! I was telling the worker, I didn't feel I should have to pay the late fee ! The manager lady came out of no where while I was talking to the worker and said she wasn't going to take it off ! I ask could I talk to the higher up manager about the late fee, she said she was the manager ! She refused me as a paying member to talk to him and I question her about it ! Then, she started a argument, we were exchanging words then, the two workers jumped in arguing at me in front of my guest and in front of the hold gym ! Then, she said he's not coming all the way over here for you, herés his card again ! I never asked her for his card ! I left to let everything cool down, went back to pay my balance off and I was just going to call the 1-800 number and she tell me the manager wants to talk to me before I pay ! I get on the phone with Christopher Walters, he said, that they don't feel safe, after they talked to me any kind of way and started the agruement with me ! I tried to explain, he really didn't want to hear what I had to say, he said he would call me back in a hour ! He called back in two and told me he took my membership ! I was shocked I never had a experience like this in Texas or any other gym I've...
