Our take

The Diamond vs Platinum pricing tiers make it tough to pin down what you'll actually pay. Get it in writing before you commit. Day pass runs $30-$100, and the holiday "experience pass" promos last anywhere from 3 to 7 days.

“The $10–$25/mo headline is real, but Planet Fitness is the textbook anti-pattern TMC exists to warn about. The annual fee is the gotcha most people forget, and the certified-mail cancellation is genuinely the worst in fitness — we've seen people pay $25/mo for two years because they "kept meaning to drive over." If you're going to join, set a calendar alert four months out for the annual fee, and only ever sign up at the location you actually live near.”
