Planet Fitness

I like planet fitness because their brand is all about ALL being welcomed to work on their health without the intimidating feel that some gyms have. This location is the newer PF location in Lexington, off of New Circle Road (across from Woodhill).The warm and caring staff greet you with a smile as soon as you walk in. Depending on the frequency of your visits, they may also greet you with saying your name, which is a personal feel that I appreciate. I have seen the facilities cleaned numerous times while I am there. There is a plethora of weights, cardio machines, tanning beds, OH MY! There is something for everyone, from the diehard gymgoer to the casual gym user. The atmosphere is welcoming, and they do utilize the lunk alarm if someone drops the weights or is grunting very loud. Of course, there are times when it is busier in the mornings before work and in the evenings after people get off work. There are shower facilities available to work off the success of your workout. My only suggestions would be as follows:1. Have an area for those who want to do their own workout, off the machines but are not stretching. There is a space to stretch but there is more equipment than there is available space for other exercise. 2. Have a hook away from the shower, closer to the shower curtain, so that belongings do not get wet.Overall, I like this location and enjoy seeing the same people daily, as they are my imaginary accountability partners :-).

Need a better manager on Mondays at 4. Her name was Emily, as she finally told me- she had long dark hair and a terrible attitude. I walked in with my husband to check him in as my guest as I always do. I went back to my car to get my clothes when the manager *FOLLOWED ME TO MY CAR* and she basically rapid-fire questioned my ability to workout and asked if I even have clothes with me that are appropriate. I said yes and I was going to get them and come in to change. She said if I didn't come in immediately they'd make my husband pay for the day. Absolutely ridiculous. So now, I'm sitting up front unable to workout (as I am in my old regular Baptist clothing) waiting for my husband to get his reps in. I will never be coming back here and suggest you go to Nicholasville rd. like we do. I've always loved planet fitness but this really put a sour taste in my mouth. All I wanted to do was change clothes. Now the manager keeps coming to stare at me making sure I don't leave the chairs up front to go get my gym bag. *delulu behavior FRFR*

It is not a place for seniors friendly. The lady in charge is young people friendly, did not honor your black card, and does not have any respect for people who have scheduled a service and need to clarify the use of the machines for her to schedule another service at the same time as yours because you do not know how the machine works.
