Planet Fitness in Forest Hills is great! 16 months ago I got hurt at judo and it was pretty bad so my doctor and physical therapist said I should join a gym to strengthen the area around the joints most prone to injury. Judo and cycling had been my only exercise since college but I've always been big and tall, even at my lowest fighting weight.

About Planet Fitness
Planet Fitness is a clean and straightforward gym that promotes Big Fitness Energy™. With over 2,400 locations, it aims to provide a welcoming environment for all fitness levels. The gym is conveniently located by Trader Joe's and Target in the heart of Forest Hills. It is generally well-maintained, and the staff is friendly and down-to-earth. While the gym is smaller than other locations in Florida and California, it offers a good variety of equipment, including free weights that go up to 75 lbs. Some users have noted that it can get quite busy, especially during summer when kids are allowed in, which can lead to wait times for machines like bench presses. However, leg machines are more readily available. Many appreciate the gym's cleanliness and the management's prompt attention to maintenance. Overall, while there are suggestions for more machines and possibly a time limit per machine to reduce wait times, members often enjoy the fantastic atmosphere and convenience of the facility.

Yesterday was my first visit to this location, the general manager BB or I believe her name was Brea was not only great to speak with, but she calmly directed me to the right areas of the gym I was looking for. She explained everything, and broke things down for me. This not only sold me on going to this location only, but I look forward to going here for my workouts. Thanks again!
Amazing, hardworking staff. Too many kids overcrowding the gym throughout the year so maybe suspend the kids go free promotion during the summer program at this location since it's crowded enough.
