Planet Fitness

I like this gym! Feels like an inclusive place to work out, for the most part.A few suggestions:- Get rid of most of the ARC trainers. Only 1-2 people use them at any given time.- Add more freeweights and cable machines. That area is cramped and super busy. Some days impossible to get in there.- Add 1-2 actual rowing machines.- Enforce or remove the 30-min workout area - no one does it properly anyway.- Move some of the ab machines out of the stretching area.. there's not enough room for people to lay down mats.

Been going to this gym for over 4 years with my family. Never had a bad experience until one of the staff members named Becky or Becca was so rude on multiple occasions. She has come up to me and others in the 30-min workout zone and told us to work out a certain way when nobody asked her? We all ignored her because that was so unnecessary, and it was very uncomfortable and awkward for everyone. On another day, she would not let me into the gym until I came back wearing runners. I was initially wearing buckled up sandals since it was so hot and I only wanted to do a light walk on the treadmill. I told her my feet get warm but she made it a huge issue and was very rude and extremely loud. I did tell her that I will wear runners from next time onwards, but she didn’t care. She didn’t listen to anything I said.

Greet staff, lots of good equipment, no trainer at the moment or since Oct 2023, I have never had any issues with the equipment, rates are great and if you buy a membership you can bring a friend with you every time. Also they have massage chairs, hydro chairs and tanning as well. The app has a lot of great features and exercise videos. Equipment and building are kept very clean and dust free. You can buy sample packages of tanning lotion and eye protection if you forget yours at home. If you forget your water bottle no worries they sell bottled beverages there. The tanning beds need the bulbs changed more frequently they don't get very warm.

Honest review from someone who is not a “gym” type person and as a woman.I’ve never been the type who wants to go to the gym and would definitely prefer other forms of exercise, but at this time in my life and the proximity of where I’m located I started looking at Planet Fitness.I got the premium membership on a deal as my friend and I decided that we wanted to workout together and saw that PF had the best rate that we could find. Ever since going, I’ve felt comfortable and safe there. From customer service to even just other members, it’s been a good experience. No one bothers you and you’re free to just do your own thing.There’s tutorials posted on the sides of the machines and even videos you can watch if you scan the at code on the machine. As a woman with PCOS, slow weighted workouts are great and I love the planned 30 minute weighted machine area.In the 4 times I’ve gone and brought guests, all of them (who also were nervous about going to the gym) have loved it and are thinking about getting memberships.There are lots of discounts and benefits as a premium member and honestly the price is pretty good, especially if I get to bring a friend for free each time! Highly recommend Planet Fitness.

Came into the Abbotsford location today for the first time as a guest with my friend that’s from out of town. The gym itself is a great facility but the staff could be more engaging as there was multiple staff members standing behind the desk and we didn’t even get a hello. The gym could be cleaner especially since there’s MULTIPLE staff members behind the desk talking to each other. The real kicker is when I went to use the bathroom.. the urinals were disgusting and caked in dried up urine and the sinks.. the sinks looked like they haven’t been cleaned in weeks. The sinks actually look like they have been puked in and never cleaned.. as I was washing my hands in the sink my fingers swiped the bottom of the bowl and cleared off some of the caked on dirt as you can see in the picture and I nearly puked. This is absolutely disgusting and the manager.. who I’m pretty sure was standing behind the front desk cracking jokes with staff members should really take the cleanliness of the club into consideration. I really hope this problem is resolved because as of right now I will never be stepping foot in a planet fitness in BC again.

Not a great gym by any stretch of the imagination. I previously used two Planet Fitness locations in Philadelphia and was shocked, here, by the cavalier attitude toward disease transmission. No sanitizer a year into a global pandemic. (In Philly there has always been a sanitizer dispenser, filled, wherever you want one.) Lots of body builders here, using machines for 20, 25 minutes at a stretch. Planet Fitness was founded to cater to the average person (the lunk alarm) but not in Abbotsford. There is only one weight machine for many types of exercises and they are repaired at abysmal speed. Several, right now, have been out of operation for two weeks. Hours are not good (e.g., 9pm on Friday) It gets three stars instead of two because it's cheap, but it doesn't come close to the standard set by other Planet Fitness locations.

I’ve been going here for years and about a month ago i caught a guy taking pictures of me, i told the staff and they told me they’d tell the manager and every day for weeks i asked if he’d done anything or checked the cameras and they said not yet every day. After weeks of working out beside the guy still and being so paranoid, my dad finally called and mentioned he’d involve the police. Of course after that the manager finally calls me and rambles about how much they take this situation seriously and that he wants every one to feel safe and whatever and straight up contradicts himself trying to make up reasons for why he didn’t do anything sooner. Saying things like how the footage deletes after 5 days so he didn’t see it (he would’ve if he looked when i asked) and then calls back and says he actually did look the day it happened saw where i was and the guy i was talking about and didn’t see anything, and then after that saying you can’t actually see where i was in the cameras. He also said he wishes he knew who it was and that i should definitely tell the staff next time i see him, almost every day i was there I told the staff who it was and they left notes on his and my file with his name. Also justifying him not knowing about it because the staff had written it on a paper note and of course “everybody knows those get lost immediately!” It was almost comical how bad he was at lying. So moral of the story is they do NOT care about the safety of their guests unless you get a man to speak for you and threaten them with police. If you’re a woman, i’d recommend going somewhere else. Not even the female staff helped.

Love this gym. Staff are friendly, lots of equipment. Atmosphere isn’t as intimidating as other gyms. When things break they get fixed relatively quickly. One thing I dis like is the 24hr tanning thing. Once a day makes sense but once every 24 hours is annoying. Sometimes the cleanliness of the tanning beds is lacking, especially the stand up. Like they forget to wipe the floor. Also I wish they were open later Friday-Sunday. Sucks they limit hours on weekendsFor $25 bucks a month you really cannot go wrong. Even cheaper if you don’t want to tan or use the massage chairs.

Friend brought me in to try the place out. The pin on the hamstring curl machine let go which sent my knee, with all the weight behind it, smashing into the metal bar. Reported to staff immediately and the guy at the desk laughed and told me it's been like that for awhile." No out of order sign or anything. It's been months since
