Planet Fitness

I can highly recommend Planet Fitness on 1035 E Capitol Expy. San Jose, Ca. for their very helpful, welcoming, and friendly support, for their spotlessly clean gym & showers, & for their great value charging only $10 a month. I am 82 years old & on a very tight budget. Erica, my training instructor is not only an incredible & knowledgeable trainer, but this service is also free at Planet Fitness, so I am able to sign up to see her several times each week. Planet Fitness really is fantastic, & I feel very lucky to be able to be part of such a great organization.

February 4, 2025 update: changing from 4 to 5 star. Consistently the cleanest gym of all. -Wednesday November 6, 2024 5 am it was the cleanest I've ever seen! Prior to that it's been hit and miss for cleanliness between just ok and looking like someone T.P.'ed the locker room with used Q-Tips on the floor and bench seats. I sure hope the gentleman working that shift sticks around for the long haul.

Dear Planet Fitness Management, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my frustration regarding an ongoing issue at the Planet Fitness location in Gould Plaza, San Jose, CA. As a loyal member who values the inclusive and supportive atmosphere your gym promotes, I am disappointed with the lack of enforcement regarding the 30-minute workout stations. Despite the clear policy stating that "Planet Fitness does not set time limits on any piece of cardio, functional, or strength training equipment, with the exception of equipment located in the 30-Minute Express Circuit," I have consistently observed members ignoring this rule. Many individuals remain at the 30-minute stations for longer periods, often exceeding the time limit and using multiple stations, which disrupts the flow of my workout and those of others. I have attempted to address this issue by politely asking fellow members to allow me to use the stations as per the rules. Unfortunately, many have refused to move, and this has been a persistent challenge during my visits. When I brought this concern to the attention of the front desk staff, a few were kind enough to issue warnings. However, during my recent visit, I spoke with a staff member named Josh, who informed me that he could not enforce the 30-minute rule. He claimed there was nothing in the policy to support such enforcement, which I find concerning, especially given the clear guidelines that exist. It is disheartening to see rules meant to create a fair and efficient workout environment not being upheld. I believe that effective management of these guidelines is crucial for all members to enjoy their experience at Planet Fitness. I kindly request that you address this situation and reinforce the importance of adhering to the 30-minute rule. Regular monitoring and enforcement would greatly enhance the experience for all members and ensure a respectful workout environment. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to seeing positive changes and hope to continue my membership with Planet Fitness with a renewed sense of community and respect. Sincerely,

Love the gym and all the equipment it has to offer . But the cleanliness of the gym has to be better . The lockers in the front are very dirty and looked like it hasn’t been cleaned since it opened . The detail on the elliptical machines have to be cleaned too . I really love the location and the parking . I would hate for this gym to degrade and go down esthetically . A clean place matters .

Usually quite crowded but after midnights, the gym is usually very clean & quiet :) Perfect time to relax & work out @amazing price!
