Seriously? You think the new members can figure this out?

10 dollar per month plus admin and annual fee. Upfront is still better deal. They must have cash flow issues maybe the gimmick is losing steam.

I thought Planet Fatness wanted the smart crowd for their gym.

simple.
they assume youll become a permabulker later on
Due to pizza parties

i dont get this place..the business model seems based on they fact exclude some people.
-
I don't get it. They are saying train here and you will look like you don't work out. What ever they are doing they are really successful and their business is exploding. Apparently it's what the people want.

they cater to the average person and try to make the point that they don't want "meat heads".
$10/month...if your goal is get in, crank out a work out and get out then it is great...for that price.
NYSC charges $85/month. If you don't care about classes and the extras that a full gym offers then I would opt for the $10 choice.
note that PF has limited free weight

I have been thrown out of two of them. one in Yonkers, NY and the one in White Plains.
Said I was intimidating people by benching 315 for reps.

i just joined 2 months ago! laugh! it's cheap 10 bucks a month and very quiet and clean, so to me it's all good FOR NOW that is!...
eventually due to the lack of a few machines and lack of heavier weights (for instance, the heaviest dumbbell is 75 pounds, the heaviest barbell for biceps is 60!, the leg press can only hold 800 pounds at the most, etcetera) i'll need to leave pretty soon and for another place.
but yes, it totally caters to the 'average person" in fact, not trying to be mean, but the clientele looks like a episode of "the biggest loser" live! ...
i've been there mornings, afternoons and evening and i would say the average age is 40's at the youngest..
crazy though, in that they have bite size tootsie rolls in a bowl at the counter everyday!
one day of the month free pizza, another day of the month free bagels, and this is supposed to help? laugh

The fat women don't want to feel like they're being judged. I have news for them....I'm not judging them. I don't even see them. I'm focused on women who look like this....

I was also thrown out at White Plains for deadlifting. I wish those 2 spots would go back to golds.

The brothers who own them sold out a long time ago!
Even when they took over the Golds in Yonkers back in the day from Health and Fitness Depot they destroyed it.
Back in those days I remember Sean Alvarez and Renzo Gracie just starting out in the upstairs room.
Those were the good ole days and they are never coming back.
-
they do have some funny commercials. i'd never train there, but i always watch the commercials to see if i recognize the commercial.
I saw one where they push two bodybuilders out the door. I think one of the guys was the one directing traffic in another ad.

He has more mass than the twink in the shower, so he does this without fear.

The average person looks at Gold's Gym and sees meatheads with a drug problem...for the most part, they are right. The problem is the drug users, not the bodybuilding type. Society laughs at these drugged up fools and places zero worth in what they do. Maybe it's time for guys to man up and train for real.
The typical Gold's Gym goer can not do much in a gym on his own and relies on drugs. People are tired of this bonehead motto and want a place they're not surrounded by delusional baboons.

This was before that when they first took over Gold's Gym in Yonkers and White Plains. Two brothers took over the Golds and then went w Planet Fitness.
Planet fitness SUCKS!
"Judgment Free Zone" my fucking ass.

I'm too lazy to post videos, so could someone post the "Roid Rage" video where the guy flips out after setting off the 'link alarm'?
-
I got news for you. Planet Fitness is a huge success and other gym chains are taking notice of the their business model. Don't be surprised if 70lbs. max dumbbells are coming to your gym next.
Just a sad state of affairs when training hard isn't seen as a positive. Not surprising when in society making a lot of money in business is seen as a negative by a growing segment of the population.

BOOM!!

seems this place discriminates
where is that fat black bastard civil rights activist Al Sharpton ???
-

Kali Muscle has been in numerous commercials, from Old Navy, to I think Planet Fitness (fatness---because they have pizza parties to fatten you up so that you stay there.)
-
this video isn't funny cuz it makes no sense. Should have been a women's locker room with women singing then they hear a mans voice then it ends up being that woman. As it is now it is simply retarded.
-
BOOM!!
now that my friend is hilarious!
-
What's really funny is PF is now tied into the Biggest Loser. Would Plantet Fitness allow all the yelling and drama that happens on that train wreck? Doesn't seem like it...

Good post...It's come to the point that even drug addicted meat head's can't stand how other drug addicted meat heads look and act.

i really don't get it. I've worked out at golds Venice since the 80s. Here u hve bb taking every drug known to man, u have 80 year old man and woman, u have the high school kids, you have the fat Jewish woman, u have th soccer moms...the place to this day is still packed n very one appears to get along very well n people r very polite for the most part. What r these drugged up meat heads doing at your gym while there and who r they bothering? R they harassing members? If so they should be booted immediately. R they dropping loud f bombs constantly? Boot them too. But if they r not harassing members in some way then is it just the way they look and train?

At my gym, one drugged up meat head loaded up the leg press(over 2000 pounds) and decided to do leg presses, 1 rep at a time for over 2 hours(the gym only has one leg press)... The unnecessary grunting even when doing 95 pound barbell curls in the squat rack. The amount of attention whoring in the gym with SOME of these people is over the top.

For some people, thats who they are. They need the constant validation. Shit is annoying, but usually I have my headphones blasting and don't even notice unless they're hogging up equipment like an idiot.

Haha what a disgusting man.

It's very simple to get a gym running smoothly. You pick the biggest dude who is there every peak hour and give him and his training partner free memberships so long as they put their own weights away and tell others to do so also.
