Florida Planet Fitness dubs itself as “The Judgment Free Zone,” with other signs that read, “you belong,” or “no critics,” but members say PF seems to be the biggest critics of all.
PF has also come under criticism for removing free-weight bench presses and squat racks. Additionally, members say they have left because of the ridiculous mask policy.
Over the past 10 years, PF has gained popularity. The gym started in 1992 as a small operation in New Hampshire, but is now the fastest-growing gym chain in the United States with over 750 locations nationwide.
The gym is actually a revolving door, meaning it cashes in on the fact that many members sign up and never actually step foot inside the gym.
