Planet Fitness – Birmingham – Hoover

It is a very clean gym with all modern equipments.

I love Planet Fitness. I signed up for $ 1 down and $ 10/​monthly. I instantly fell in love and upgraded to the black card for $ 19.99/monthly. Very nice gym equipment and all classes are free. I was pleasantly surprised when I found out that I could work out with the trainer for free.

What a great gym! First of all price wise, you can try all you want, but you just can’t beat $ 10 a month. Let me repeat that, $ 10 PER MONTH. Let’s be honest here, that’s almost free as far gym memberships go.
Equipment is nice and new, gym is not overcrowded even at peak times. I came on a Wednesday evening around 5:30, and plenty of equipment was available. If you don’t care about paying for a swimming pool that you never use as part of your gym fee, this is the place to be.

Any workout facility is good in the general mindset. Overall I like this gym because its a good size, has alot of various types of equipment to use. The workers seem very friendly and helpful from what I can see. The maintenance is very good as well, very neat for a gym. The major thing is availability of equipment vs people… so why not check it out?

Joining planet fitness was a really great decision. I am so glad we made the decision to get fit!
–It’s conveniently located in Hoover.
–I love the hours (morning, noon or night) — though 5pm M, T, W, R are very crowded.
–The staff is friendly.
–The equipment is in great condition, though you can tell which are favored by gym rats.
–There are trainers available (separate cost) for those that are interested or if you have a quick question… like how to properly use a machine.
–They have a wide variety of free weights, several of the same weight which really comes in handy!
*Abs, arms, legs, cardio… all good options here.
The difference between four and five stars: **Only negative– everyone is NOT consistent with wiping down the machines after use. This bugs the HECK out of me. It’s actually gross! For this reason, I try to wipe down the machines before AND after I use them. No one wants janky germs folks are spreading these days. Be courteous and take care of smelly germs.
Happy Sweating…

Gud old Planet Fitness! It’s pretty much (almost) everything you could want in a gym selection. Open 24hrs (during the week), cheap ($ 10/​month) and offers great variety!
Been coming here several months now and really enjoy it. I’m not even close to being some super always in the gym kinda guy, but when I do show up… it’s always been a fun and comfortable environment.
Again, plenty variety in machines and free weights, a couple trainers on hand at any given time, and also a fun/​intense almost non-​stop «stations» workout!
Clean locker/​restroom facilities, audible music playing (never too loud to drown out your personal Miley Cyrus Mix!) water fountain and even concessions for purchase. There’s also a few tanning rooms.
So if you are on the fence about a gym or live close and always wondered about this place… Give it a shot or at least stop in for a free tour!

There are so many great things about this place, I don’t know where to start. When they say No Judgement Zone, they really mean it. The staff is kind, friend and very helpful. They do not try to sell you things like other gyms. For $ 10 a month, you cannot go wrong. It’s a 24 hour gym, so if you feel like working out later, no worries. The people at the gym are very friendly too, not stuck up. I think its just the environment as a whole. I used to go here everyday until I moved and frankly miss it. It’s irreplaceable. Another thing I really like about this place is the lights. The gym I go to right now has lack of lights on and that is a bit depressing to me. Also, I appreciate cleaning supplies, I am a bit OCD. Overall, this place is a good place to workout and you get back much more than you pay.

My husband is a member, and I visited tonight using his Guest Pass. Being female, I usually hesitate going to «gyms» because I feel so out of place. Not here. Atmosphere was very inviting. People of all ages and fitness levels were there. I am considering my own membership.

Friend of mine told me this was a good place to work out. Easy to join. Lots of equipment. Not a ton of muscle heads walking around flexing.
