Training clients at Planet Fitness
I recently had some inquiries from Planet Fitness members about me meeting them there to train. I called a few PF locations and they said if I had a membership I could train them there. Can anyone else confirm this? I don’t want to sign up for a membership and then have them come tell me otherwise.
I am certified by ACE and I have insurance.
Thank you!

Hi Rosemary,
why don’t you have that written into the membership agreement with Planet Fitness? In this day and age, just somebody telling you that you can train there when you have a membership is not enough. If they don’t want to put it into writing, I would not become a member until this is resolved.

Hi Rosemary,
I have been into a few Planet Fitness gyms recently and I have seen trainers who are not employees there training clients. They are not that strict of a gym as far as training goes and what they told you might be true. However, I would approach the owners of the PF gym you are interested at and ask them to verify this or get permission to conduct your business there. From what I know, they don’t offer PT sessions. They might have a trainer on staff, but they don’t sell PT (at least at the ones I visited). I hope this helps.
Best,
Harris
