The average monthly cost of a gym membership in the US is $55 per month, brought up by additional perks that members probably don't need nor want to attain their health and fitness goals.

We at Planet Fitness have boiled our business down to the things that our members really want in a health club - clean, stylish, hassle free facilities that are filled with tons of brand-name cardio and strength equipment, and a lot of happy people. We don’t have any salespeople, and we don’t bother with all the extras like juice bars and childcare that drive up costs and can make a gym membership seem more like a car payment.

If you’re looking for a comfortable, friendly place to exercise, and like a great deal, then you’ll love Planet Fitness.

As the most innovative health club brand in the United States, Planet Fitness provides a unique environment in which anyone – and we mean anyone – can be comfortable. It is also known for a lot of things – our absurdly low prices, our Lunk™ Alarm, and most of all perhaps, for our Judgement Free Zone® philosophy, which means members can relax, get in shape, and have fun without being subjected to the hard-core, look-at-me attitude that exists in too many gyms. A diverse, Judgement Free Zone is a place where a lasting, active lifestyle can be built. Our product is a tool that can be used by anyone, a means to an end and not a brand name or a mold-maker.

Planet Fitness has had record growth after it first opened its doors, seeing continued growth ever since. We have seen the great potential in the Planet Fitness franchise, and because of its explosive growth we plan to open multiple locations around Laredo, TX.  Our goal is to implement an existing and successful franchise structure and expand within 5 yeas to three locations that will be supported by Webb County's population.

Planet Fitness has made a lot of headway and achieved substantial traction into bringing their innovative health club brand to a broader market base.
