As a company? Shitty business practices
For the members it’s less hate and more pity
Your average planet fitness has 7000 members and a maximum occupancy of 90

"No grunting"

Never actually thought of it that way. It's true, I've known plenty of people who would continue paying for their PF membership but gave up past the third week of January.

Multiple reasons.
For one, it's hypocritical in its message; it claims to be a judgment-free zone but you sure as shit will be judged if you're lifting heavier than everyone else is comfortable with, even if you're lifting safer than everyone else. Two, its business model, while extremely respectable from a capitalistic point of view, is a fucking disgrace to everything a gym should stand for. People are encouraged to strive for mediocrity, and to celebrate in their unhealthiness with the freely available tootsie rolls at 4g of sugar a pop. Also, the monthly free pizza and bagels. In essence, they're not creating an environment that EVERYONE will feel comfortable in, they're creating an environment where fatties; a significant demographic that will often TALK about wanting to get better but never actually do anything about it, and sells them a dream. Their gyms are also geared towards deterring actual lifters as much as possible: no squat racks, smith machines everywhere, dumbbells never go past 60 lbs, fixed weight EZ bars, overabundance of cardio and machines. Their meme 30 minute circuit workout is possibly the worst offender; the idea that you can get a full workout in 30 minutes is encouraging to most fatties that want to be able to say that they "tried everything to lose weight but couldn't" without committing too many resources, and the fact they keep coming back once a month for that 30 minute workout is justification enough to keep their membership active. By keeping any real lifters away or outright forcing them into not doing anything actually productive or challenging (no free weights beside babbyweight dumbbells and EZ bars, banning exercises, banning grunting, banning dropping weights, banning anything you'd see at a real fucking gym), they're able to keep their maintenance costs astoundingly low

Keeping their maintenance costs low lets them get away with pricing their monthly fee at $10 a month. And what rational person would choose to pay $30 a month instead of $10 if they were given that choice and not much else info as most normies often are? They basically create an environment where you will neither learn nor improve, and try their hardest to convince you; the dumb normie; that you're part of a real gym, one where no one judges you and you're not judged; one that actively encourages you to stay at your current level instead of trying to improve.
The saddest thing is they try their fucking hardest to advertise themselves at a judgment free zone, but it's in their shitty gyms that you'll see the most judgment. Go to a locally owned gym, and most people will actually be extremely friendly; especially if you're clueless, because they'll see in you a genuine attempt at improving and will respect you for it. At PF, everyone just looks at the next worst guy and thinks "well, at least I'm not as bad as him", all the while hypocritically smiling because judgment free amirite.
Seriously, fuck PF and fuck anyone that encourages their scummy business model
t. got locked into a year long PF contract before switching to a local PL gym and never looking back

Their buisness-model is verry jewish.
They sell a membership rather cheap (10$/month IIRC) and keep out most of the people who actualy go to the gym.
There is no equipment to make any meaningfull gains, almost entirely cardio machines and even their weight-loss potential gets basicly nuked by free pizza or bagles.

They don't have a squatrack or barbells. Just a few dumbells and everything else are machines and cardio equipment

I don't hate it, I think it's a great business model and I'm sad I didn't think of it. Their services arnt for me though.
Bentley Johnson
Even if she hadn't, it's still way hotter when she can not just best up, but literally rip apart these puny creatures. Like, you know, smashing ribcages into goo with a single blow, with a hug, with a careless touch. That's what real waifu gotta be like.
