Planet Fitness — Local services in Lemont Township

This is more of a non rating. Just for context I will say that I have gone to a plethora of gyms (former active duty) all around the country, and numerous on the south suburbs (xsport, LA, even PF in Lockport) for many years. One of the things that comes with gyms is getting a day pass (or 3) so you can see if the gym truly works for you. There is only so much you can get from a quick walk through.
