Used to love Planet Fitness… now it’s just admin, admin, admin.

I switched over from Virgin Active to Planet Fitness because I genuinely loved the vibe! the equipment was great, the setup was smooth, and the buddy tag system made it feel like a community. It was simple, convenient, and just worked.

But lately, it’s become a nightmare of red tape. Now my gym buddies need to bring proof of ID every single time which is ridiculous considering I’m the one paying for the buddy tag. Then I’m forced to download an app, which half the time doesn’t even work, and I’m expected to remember passwords and jump through hoops just to work out?

It’s honestly become more stress than it’s worth. I joined a gym to make my life easier, not harder. If I knew Planet Fitness was heading in this direction, I would’ve stayed with Virgin Active. At least there, the experience felt professional and consistent.

Disappointed isn’t even the word. Fix it.
