Is anyone a member there? I saw they are running a special right now. $1 joiners fee and $10 mth. I was planning on doing videos at.my house and walking outside but it is freezing and icy around here right now. I am only 21 out bit I was thinking that I could at.Leary use the treadmills there. And as long awning don't babe to sign up for an extended period of time with the special.deal it would be worth it for me until I am cleared to do heavier exercise. Is it a nest market like gold's gym? That is a big turn off for me. My mom suggested curves but that is way to monotonous for me. I am a classic adhd patient so I need change and often or I get sick of routines.and quit! Lol!

I have a love-hate relationship with PF..

I LOVE that there are a lot of machines. The machines are clean and in good working order. I have never had to wait for a treadmill, elliptical or spin bike. I have had to wait for a recumbent bike but not for long. The clientelle is pretty much just people who go there to workout and mind their own business. I've seen a few grunters and "gym rat" types but very few. Mostly it's just lots of moms and people workingout after work. I feel comfortable there in sweats and a t shirt. The PF I went to in NY had a lot of muslim ladies who would go work out there in head cover and baggy clothes... nobody cared. I also liked the strength training equipment. I did have to wait a little to use it, but I was ok with that. I weighed 330 when I was going there and I could use everything no problem though that thing you have to push open and closed with your legs, I did get stuck on and some lady had to help me get out of it!!! We had a good laugh and she showed me how to adjust it so it didn't open as wide!

What I didn't like about Planet fitness: NO FITNESS CLASSES.. no zumba, no step aerobics... not not really any help anywhere. the people who work there are just kids and they really don't seem to know what they're doing.. I also hated that they had pizza and bagles out for free to the gym patrons sometimes.. AAAK... I don't need that when I'm going to the GYM!!!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE THEIR MOTTO..."LEAVE YOUR EGO AT THE DOOR"!! In MD we have a trainer that gives different classes at PF so I guess it depends on where you are. Good luck!

Yep.. Same here, depends on your area, I guess. And price is right! We can have personal trainer or classes. Love it! And the " leave ego at door" is awesome. Everyone is welcome and no show offs ... Although enough " whoa... That's what I want to look like" clients that help motivate me. I pretend they used to look like me ;-)

I love PF Too!!! i guess the simplicity of the club is the best part and keeps it from become too over crowded and unruly. I love their motto as well and it seems like a very down to earth place. ive been a member since 2011.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
