Planet Fitness – Woburn

This gym needs a little more love so here is my attempt at raising PF Woburn’s star percentage. I have been a member at this location for three years and truly enjoy working out here. Keep in mind this is a no-​frills, «get in and get it done» gym with memberships as low as $ 10 a month. This Planet Fitness location recently upgraded its interior with the addition of brand new machines. Before the upgrade I probably would have offered no more than three stars as the older equipment had seen better days, but I feel the addition of the new machines was a major improvement. For $ 10 a month PF Woburn offers all the machines necessary for a complete muscle-​toning and cardio based workout plan including weight machines, free weights, treadmills, ellipticals, and more. There is also a private mat area for stretching and a few massage chairs for post workout relaxation.
I appreciate the layout in comparison to other gyms due to the fact all machines face the opposite direction of the entrance. The forward facing set up allows for less eye contact with fellow gym goers. I tend to feel a little shy when too many eyes are on me so I feel more comfortable entering the gym and navigating around the machines with this layout. This gym is a bit more dimly lit than other Planet Fitness locations I have been to, but personally I prefer less lighting. The TVs are mounted high and somewhat far away which may be an issue for some. The gym usually appears pretty clean despite all the sweaty bodies. The air can feel a bit stuffy especially when busy, but I suppose this is normal for any gym atmosphere.
Yes it is low key and a little dark, but I always feel comfortable here and that is important to me. The staff is friendly enough and will greet you upon arrival. This location never seems overcrowded and the machines I need are available without a wait. If you are looking for group classes, swimming pools, and saunas this is not the place for you. Planet Fitness Woburn does, however, offer a very convenient, effective, and affordable workout option.

Very Nice Gym. Always clean and the staff are very friendly (Matt Jannetti) and always willing to help. Plenty of equipments that you don’t have to wait.

I find it really annoying that it doesn’t have wi-​fi (so you have to use your phone data to stream music), and has no radio channel to plug your headphones into (there are TVs that are small and a mile away that you can plug into). The women’s changing stalls and bathrooms need to be fixed up.

For $ 10/​month this is a decent gym. A lot of machines to choose from, decently clean (but kinda smelly like one might expect at a busy gym), and good hours.

Never had a problem with this gym… There is plenty of equipment and the hours are great (although I wish it was ²⁴⁄₇)… It’s always clean and the staff are nice… Not bad at all for the price… The only thing is that they have a bowl of Tootsie Rolls to eat, the last thing I want when I’ve just worked out is candy… Why not Quench gum or something healthier? Other than that it’s an awesome gym…

This location is not as bad or gross as the Malden one but not great either like the AMAZING, spotless and true 24 hr Billerica one is.

I don’t understand the bad reviews. i went here 7 days a week from April thru August and never had 1 problem. The place is clean and plenty of cardio equipment. Now i go 2 – 3 times a week. I think the staff is courteous. It’s a NO Frills gym membership. Come on now, $ 10 a month. Get over it.

This gym is pretty awful! The people who work there barely work. The set up is awkward. The machines are either dirty because no one enforces the «clean up after yourself» policy or broken.
I cancelled my membership because I hated working out there.
