I hadn't exercised at all for years when I walked into Planet Fitness in December 2015. I joined the Black program, which has great extras like tanning, massage chairs, and massage water beds. I spent about an hour with a trainer that was very understanding and showed me how to use the machines that would benefit me. I've been going 5 days a week for the past 2 months and I am addicted to it! There are no hidden charges. You can talk to a trainer as much as you want. It's helping me so much with my mobility. I absolutely love it!
