Here is my feedback on Planet... I'm 37, 38 in less than a month. Yep- no freebar bench available, but mine had dumbbells that went up to 80. Incline that and do Smith machine work at whatever you need to increase the weight. Smith mchaines are NOT normal there- you CAN do more on regular barbell flat bench, they are heavier than you think.
Long and short- you can fulfill a normal workout while being strong, but no type of powerlifting options are available. So if your life depends on deadlifts, freebar squats and cleans- not the gym for you.
Besides that, 19 bucks a month can keep you looking jacked and feeling good about yourself after an hour of working out. You also get free tanning (if you need that, not my thing) and massage devices too.
If you are there for free food, you dont need it anyways. Just my 2 cents.
