here’s a new gym in town. Planet Fitness opened its doors for business on December 17, 2014 and the response so far has been better than anyone imagined. Mr. Arthur Nudelman, franchise owner, thought it was time for a state-of-theart fitness center with reasonable prices in Plant City. He was right. Grady Hinchman, Regional Manager, has been with Planet Fitness since 2008. This former Mets minor league baseball player was in his element working at the gym and he soon made manager. His wife, Alexis, one year old daughter, Emery, and Grady moved from Stuart Florida so he could accept the position as Regional Manager. When asked what makes this fitness center different, Grady shows me around the brand new facility and explains:
The gym offers a non-intimidating, judgment free zone which makes it easier for anyone who is thinking about joining a gym feel more comfortable. We have Free Weights, Strength Machines, an Ab Zone, 100plus Cardio Machines, and a 30 Minute Express room that works all major muscle groups so that you get a full body work out. Also of interest are the two days a month of celebration at the gym. Pizza night and bagel morning. A fitness trainer is on staff at the center and is available on a first come, first serve basis. The training is unlimited. Each team member at the center is always there to help. Planet Fitness is open 24/7 every day except Christmas day. They close early two days a year; on Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve. Our reasonable prices are well
