They aren’t closing it. I spoke with SanJay (area manager) and he said they will be doing the remoldel while staying open.

Owned PF herb zone.

Also if you work out at PF and you bench over 300lbs you’re a homo. Go to a real GYM.

I love seeing these jacked dudes in there benching big weight then they go and do 75lb flat dumbells. wat.

when did you speak with him? My ex gf is the night manager and she said they will be closing and employees going to other stores for the time being… You could be right though.

This is retarded… PF is convenience and aisde from higher weight dumbbells which can be supplimented it has everything else… I have a membership at pf, golds and albany strength and still only go to pf as its close, open 24 hours and when I go everything I need is always open. If anything GOLDS is a homo gym… seriously, who has a fucking movie theatre with tredmills instead of seats in there gym?? SICK ASS fucking idea but def not the traditional hardcore gym scene. Albany strength is cool for there competitions, supps and muy tai and shit but every time I go there the benches are being used for hours at a time and they dont have HALF the shit pf has…

I lift well over 300 pounds and ONLY workout at planet fitness… Guess what? I am as strong as I am and as big as I am even WITH there 75 pound dumbbbells

BTW, REAL jacked motherfuckers dont do flats 🙂 they do inclined and declined period.

Im a certified person trainer, I bench 385, dead 450-500 and squat 400 and i workout at planet fitness. Anytime you wanna say I dont do those numbers you can come join me.

BTW I YELL on my reps and never got kicked out or even talked to.

Certified personal training can be attained in a weekend. (Non ACSM/NASM)

So you’re that dude at PF? :rofl wow. You would be asked to leave at the PF near me.

Seriously, Best Fitness is probably one of the best places in the area. Golds in Latham is good too. I used to workout there heavily but it’s so far from my house compared to PF which is literally a rock throws distance.

Golds in Latham has great equipment compared to PF. Way better racks, higher dumbells etc. PF has some mega dumpy equipment.

def not a weekend but i agree its not hard to get but youve got to be dedicated to attain it which was the motive for mentioning it. Well I’ve worked out at loudonville, rotterdam and the x gates one and never heard a word from anyone… maybe becuase i go at night? who knows. What I DO know is #1 Im not changing my life around to work out at a gym thats only open until 9pm or even earlier? and #2 im not driving 15+ miles out of my way to do the same exact workouts I would at my 1.5 mile gym. A gym is a gym, a workout is a workout, end of story. Watch the ni99as on youtube all jacked up from monkey bars in the park… It’s not how you reach your goals as long as you do. My friend Jeremy worked at best, its fine, nothing wrong but nothing that would make me go out of my way.

I’m not doubting you, I just don’t understand the concept of working out somewhere like PF when you’re pushing that much weight and there are better tools elsewhere. Obviously you are serious about working out. If you want to seem big/strong to the people working at at PF that’s fine just say it though.

Also, the grunting/yelling mid reps is retarded and you must be lifting too much weight. I don’t ever see a need for that.
