Never have I been harassed for dropping weights, doing dead lifts, or making the accidental grunt.... except when I was working out at Planet Fitness.
The staff is rude, and certain employees make it their mission to seek out and reprimand us violators of Planet Fitness workout code. What a joke!!
I can understand if I'm a workout junkie with massive arms and chest who intimidates other patrons by hoarding the equipment and the dropping of 50+ lb weights, but I'm a 40-something female who keeps to myself with the use of an ipod. Yet I'm singled out for my inappropriate behavior (thank goodness the siren has never gone off in my honor)!
The price might be right at Planet Fitness, but the Nazi-like atmosphere is not worth the $10/month (plus I like exercise classes). There are other health clubs in the Charlotte region that might cost a little bit more, but the comfort of knowing no one is watching your every move is worth the extra dollars.
