Specialties

We at Planet Fitness are here to provide a unique environment in which anyone — and we mean anyone — can be comfortable. A diverse, Judgement Free Zone® where a lasting, active lifestyle can be built. Our product is a tool, a means to an end; not a brand name or a mold-​maker, but a tool that can be used by anyone. In the end, it’s all about you. As we evolve and educate ourselves, we will seek to perfect this safe, energetic environment, where everyone feels accepted and respected. We are not here to kiss your butt, only to kick it if that’s what you need. We need you, because face it, our planet wouldn’t be the same without you. You belong!

History

Established in 1992.

Planet Fitness got its start in 1992 when Michael Grondahl acquired a struggling gym. He reduced membership prices to compete against better-​known brands and focused on serving occasional or first-​time gym users.

Planet Fitness is known for 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. We provide a clean, stylish, hassle-​free health club in Baltimore — Inner Habor, MD filled with tons of brand-​name cardio and strength equipment, and a lot of happy people.
