Planet Fitness – Indianapolis – Hardegan St.

The reason I’m giving the one star is that the men’s room has NO HOT WATER. When they sell the membership they say nothing about it but no about the problem. This has been an issue since I’ve been a member. Spend the money and fix the problem other wise it’s a great place.

I’ve belonged to this fitness club for a year now. I love the bronzing beds, but sometimes there is a wait. I get a bit annoyed when the employees try to get me to change my mind on what type of tanning bed I use, just to get me in faster. (I LIKE the BRONZING BEDS, don’t heckle me about it!) I don’t mind waiting a little to get the beds I want. I love all the available fitness equipment, and the fact that I could tan EVERY DAY if I like, with the Black Card Membership. I also love that they have massage chairs and hydro massage beds, as I have a bad back, and sometimes the use of these can improve the quality of my day, by helping loosen up those back muscles a bit. The tanning beds are very relaxing as well. The whole place is always spic & span clean, and they employees are always there to greet you with a smile and a welcome when you arrive, and a greeting to see you soon when you leave. They ALWAYS acknowledge me, and that makes me feel good. All the employees are great, but Christina is the one who signed me up last year, and she gets an A+ for going out of her way to speak to me and ask how I’m doing. I recommend this fitness club to everyone I know.

I have a black card, but I had never visited this location. I pull up at 9pm on Friday night, while others are working out, and am told that the gym closes at 9pm.
MANAGEMENT. Please take down the sign that mentions being open 24 hours. You close at 9pm on Friday nights, and are only open 7 – 7 on the weekends. This is awful customer service from a company who says they are open 24 hours. I work out every day. Why restrict people from working out after 9pm on weekends? Some don’t want to go out and party. some like myself would rather accomplish health goals and work out instead, but no you falsely advertise being open 24 hours. Plenty of other PF locations are only ²⁴⁄₇. Literally ²⁴⁄₇.
I will never work out at this location. I would give this review 0 stars if I could.

Ok I’m a regular at the beech groove location but I come here a couple days a week so I might as well review this too.
This place is immaculate. There is always a staff member cleaning and the bathrooms are spotless. The locker rooms are just like the high end gyms around here. Spacious and you can put your lock on there. I like that the lockers have the «mesh» design so you can kinda see in the locker. Sometimes I evidentially use way too much oxygen during my workout and I forget which locker I put my stuff in so I don’t look crazy trying to get into every locker. Showers are nice and provide soap, they have hair dryers and a dressing room. Two big mirrors.
The gym itself:
I like the beech groove location better but a lot of weight lifters will disagree with me and I’ll explain why. This gym has rows all facing a giant mirror. 4 rows are cardio machines then the free weights and serious weight stuff is in front of the mirror. I could care less about a mirror but I know for people who use weights you need to see your form. I’ve never had a problem getting on the arc trainer or treadmill.
Black card member benefits:
Freaking awesome.
This place is better than beech grooves black member perks because of the layout and perks.
The massage room is awesome. It’s dark and relaxing. It lets you get away as you lay down (or sit depending on your choice of massage).
Tanning beds are insanely awesome. They have 3 different type (and levels of beds). One stand up and 2 different laydown. 12 beds in total.
Staff:
Ok I’ve looked on glass door and I know these employees get paid very little. With that said, how do they find these employees? At both locAtions these guys not only get along with each other But they actually like us customers. They will talk and joke Around with you. They clean, actually like their jobs, and are very helpful. I really want to know how they have such great staff for what they pay them. I am out of space to review :)

Always look foreword coming to this place. I’ve worked out in other gyms but I get tired of the meat market scene and the D-​bags roid freaks, and all the other gym cliques. I get in, get out and that’s it. !0 bucks is phenomenal. I plan on upgrading when to the black card when summer draws closer because of the free tanning.

This place is clean and has nice equipment. They say its a judgment free gym, but I didn’t feel that. However, I’m a physique competitor. The free weights only went up to about 80lbs. A great gym for beginners or older people. I think my grandmother would enjoy it here; its just not the gym for me. I find it odd that they have pizza day for their members. Ha ha this was a smart business strategy. … guilt your members into coming back.

The staff is great here

What can I say… it is perfect me and could only be better if
A.) they offered yoga
B.) Someone came to my house, dragged me out of bed, and chained me to a treadmill.
C.) Some sort of childcare &/​or a place for well behaved children to play while waiting for their hard working parents.
Since the above isn’t going to happen, I will have to settle with:
* Paying $ 20/​month and can bring 1 person with me at anytime to workout.
* Free tanning (if you enjoy turning yourself into a leather, precancerous being)
* Free hydro massage (try it, its AMAZING!)
* Free Red Light Therapy (I tried it, not sure if it works but hey it’s free!)
* Circuit Training (think Curves)
* Treadmills and Ellipticals as far as the eye can see
*STAIR MACHINES (now, now yes these suck but trust me they do wonders keeping your booty in check when it begins to claim it’s own zip code!)
Happy Exercising!

I come here mainly for the tanning. This is the only location in Indy where they offer the Level 4 super beds, which I like much better than the other beds.
The gym is clean, the staff is polite and the prices are great. Don’t bother with the $ 10 membership. upgrade to the Black Card for $ 20 a month and take advantage of all of the other benefits it has to offer.

I switched from LA Fitness to Planet Fitness about a year ago and LOVE IT. Staff is very nice and helpful. Very good equipment. Not ever a wait. Free tanning. Free training. And the list goes on. Only thing they lack is classes else it would be perfect for anyone. I highly recommend Planet Fitness if you’re looking for a gym to work out or jump on a treadmill for some cardio!
