Planet Fitness — Local services in Aberdeen

Pros. Very clean, corporate gym. Good selection of dumbells and machines. It's well lit, and it has nice, clean bathroom facilities. Tons of cardio machines of all types. Great pricing on basic memberships.

Areas they could improve. I wish they had a freestanding bench/squat bay, but I get it that it's a safety concern.

They would also benefit from adding another hamstring machine and swapping out the lock mechanism on the one in the front room. And they would do well to have staff&trainers citculate more often.

Planet Fitness in Aberdeen rocks! The best part of being a member there is the fitness classes with James. I've noticed a major change in my physique since I started training with him. He customized my workout to work within my limitations. James always ensures that my technique is always correct to avoid any injuries. He is very patient and encouraging and he makes us laugh while we are working out. Each session I have learned new exercises that I use when I don’t have a class with him. I am consistent, dedicated & motivated thanks to James. I feel much stronger, more confident, and James went above the call of duty to helped me create a sustainable and healthy eating plan that fits my lifestyle. Thank you James for helping me achieve some of my fitness goals and I’m excited to...
