Planet Fitness – Nashua – Coliseum

Pretty good place overall. I’ve only been in the morning and after work, but it was not packed for either time.
If you’re training to be Mr. Olympia, PF probably isn’t for you. If you’re just looking for an average workout in a nice atmosphere, join up.
I gave it four stars because the guy working the desk was kind of rude. It’s also bogus that they MAKE your guest write an email address, obviously you can put something fake, but you’d assume they’d rather have blanks than unmailable addresses.
Also, check out the website frequently. They offer a $ 15 membership that isn’t always advertised, but is on the site sometimes.

JUST HAD THE WORST HAIRCUT EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE.
Me: Hey how’s your day going?
Hairdresser: Fine. You were so disrespectful to me on the phone
Me: What did I say that you found disrespectful, I haven’t seen you in months
Hairdresser: You told me that I ruined your day because I had to cancel on you
Me: No what I said was it doesn’t work to cancel an appointment on me 10 minutes before the appointment and there was an impact on my schedule because of that.
Hairdresser: Well it was clearly disrespectful and rude and I don’t like disrespectful and rude people so you need to treat our employees better
Me: Well I’m really sorry what I said came off as rude and disrespectful to you, wasn’t my intention.
Hairdresser: That’s nice
[AFTER THE HAIRCUT IS OVER]
Me: Well again I apologize for the mixup
Hairdresser: (SILENCE — just stares at me)
Me: Ok – well have a great day
Hairdresser: Bye

Just moved out here from California so I transferred my membership out here. The first time I went in to I quite about transferring my membership the lady at the desk was so awesome. She explained what needed to be done and how long it may take.
The second time I went in there. I stood at the desk for at least 2 minutes no one acknowledged me (mind you three people were behind the desk. The front desk lady I spoke of previously, a trainer who was eating a wrap of some sort, and another guy who seemed to be busy). With that being said, some one should have said hello give me a second while I finish up and I will help you, I mean something.
Once the guy with the sandwhich notices I’m just standing there, he stands up with his wrap in hand and asked if he could help me. I smiled and told what I was trying to do. He said ok name please. I meniotned I needed to change my name as well. He said ok. And then handed me my new club card and said here is your new card. And sat back down.
No tour of the new facility. No do you have questions. No nothing. I guess being I’m customer service makes me particular about service but it’s planet fitness. You can’t hold them to that high of a standard I guess.

Good workout facility

ive been a member of this planet fitness for a little more than a year now and i have been pretty please with what i get for the money.
²⁴⁄₇ work out, tan, and even schedule a hair cut. well worth the price.
one constructive critizism. i would love it if they had WiFi avalable. cell reception is horrible, so pandora on my phone isnt really an option and if you wanna watch something other than whats on the big tv’s. sorry… have wifi avalible would let me bring my tablet and watch whatever i wanted or use internet radio.

I joined approx 1 ½ years ago. The price is good, the facilities are clean, the equipment is in good condition. I am a Black Card member and use the other Nashua location too. The free haircut deal is nice. Both Nashua locations are corporate run, not franchise, and it makes a huge difference. I have visited franchise locations and the Nashua facilities are far superior in equipment, cleanliness, and friendliness of the staff. It is nice not having the heavy weight lifting «lunks» around.
It sounds like the 2 negative reviewers will not be there, which makes it better for the rest of us. The only negative is that is is crowded during the dinner hours, which is typical of any exercise facility.

Planet Fitness gets somewhat of a bad rap, being referred to as a gym for people who don’t like to workout. They do have some unique policies (such as the «lunk alarm» which goes off if you drop the weights, a «no grunting» policy, and a size limit for your water bottles) that aim to discourage hardcore weight lifters. I can see how that is off putting, especially to hardcore weight lifters looking to make their captive audience uncomfortable with their strangely sexual noises as they lift weights that no human was ever intended to be able to lift.
But honestly? For a normal person who is looking for a clean, well-​maintained gym with a nice variety of cardio machines, free weights, and weight machines, as well as a 30 minute weight circuit, PF in Nashua is awesome. It’s open 24 hours a day, you can manage your membership online, and membership is crazily cheap.
Despite the fact that the parking lot (which it shares with Chunky’s — and you have to admit the juxtaposition between the names is awesome) is often crowded, the gym is rarely packed, even during the typically busy hours right before and right after the typical 9 – 5 workday. There are plenty of ellipticals and treadmills so that I’ve never had to wait — in fact, I’ve never even had to use one directly next to another person! There are 20 tvs, each with a different channel (and a helpful channel guide on the wall), so that you can pick a machine next to whatever type of programming you like to watch.
The locker rooms are nice, clean, and spacious. Just bring your own lock and you are good to go. There are also tanning booths, massage chairs and, strangely enough, a barber shop all in the gym.
I gave it 4 stars, however, because the lunk alarm is really irritating. I mean, yes, it is annoying when people drop weights loudly, but two wrongs don’t make a right. Bring your headphones, folks!
