Best gym in Red Deer. I've worked for Shawn at Planet Fitness since 1995 love every minute of it ! .

Quintin Butcher

Awesome private gym with quality equipment. The spa really helps after a long work out, members and staff are always there to point you in the right direction for fitness and fitness goals

Christina Malouin

I don't know

Jade Laybourne

Owner was hard to work with.

Dr. RICHARD

Snuck in during covid closure , great place.

Ry McDons

Most affordable price in the city is what brought me in at dollar per day, what you pay here for 1 year you get for 1—2 months at other gyms. The motivation, training and nutrition knowledge of the staff is what keeps me coming back!! Steam Bath and hot-tub/ pool included for members

Niek Theelen

Beautiful hotel planet fitness is my favourite gym in Red Deer, would like to see more facilities like this in Alberta. Shawn is great to work with!

Dustin

Dave Nash

Best gym in town. Great steam room, hot tub, and pool. New equipment. I appreciate that the owner, Sean, is working in his own gym, and he's been a big help to me when I was a little down on myself.. He's a good guy.

Been going to the gym for about 12 years and love it. Shawn is a fantastic owner and will do his best to help any client. I would definitely suggest this gym. Great friendly environment.

I am in my second year as a member at the Planet Fitness gym located in the lower level of the Radisson Hotel. The gym has all the necessary equipment and free weights to get a good workout every time and after your workout, you can enjoy the swimming pool, hot tub, wet steam room or the dry steam room to relax and finish off your day. The members are all excellent to get along with, the staff is very pleasant and the gyms owner is very keen on all aspects of physical fitness and nutrition. The best thing is the price is very reasonable for all the anemities you get for your membership compared to all the other gyms. I would not hesitate at all to keep on renewing my gym membership at the Planet Fitness Health Club here in Red Deer. Keep up the good work Shawn!!!

Small but really nice

The owner is great! He knows his stuff.

Ivan Kozoletov

I have been going to this gym for quite some time since 2003. This place has great equipment. Steam room, dry sauna and pool is great for relaxing after hard workout. I also been member at two different gyms in the city but keep coming back to this place.

Graeme Moore

By far the best gym I've ever seen located in a hotel. Everything you need for a solid workout: dumbbells up to 80lbs, plenty of flat and inclined benches, Olympic barbells, enough 45 plates for anything, cardio equipment, any machine you'd need, etc.

Jager Larsen

Great gym with incredible pricing compared to other gyms in Alberta, very friendly and professional staff. The gym is also very clean.

Danka S

The best gym I have ever been to and I have seen many gyms. Area is small but very well organized so you can always isolate yourself. I love vibration machine, glute machine and all other leg machines that most gyms dont have but these machines really make a difference. Owner is also very friendly. Hope to be back there again one day.

Great atmosphere here at planet fitness. Very nice staff, great equipment and free weights. Locker room is amazing and very clean. All around great gym, best part for me is the steam room and hot tub!

Katelyn Dalton

I've tried memberships at many different gyms and Planet Fitness is by far my favourite... Don't waste your money at large corporation gyms like Goodlife or World Gym. Planet Fitness has everything these gyms have to offer at a way more reasonable price, and the staff members are way more invested in you and your success. It offers a friendly atmosphere with members that motivate each other, and as a women you feel completely confident working out and using the pool here. I drive in from Lacombe just to come here and would highly recommend this gym if you are in the Central Alberta area!

Jessica Rose

Quiet, modern gym. You can take your kids to pool for free with membership. Get treated like a human being. Able to breath. Everyone is welcome. Love this place!

Terena Huffman

Friendly people and a great place to work out. Lots of space and equipment to suit everyone's needs. Great hrs open..great prices for membership. When your done working out you can hit the pool, steam room, sauna or go for a tan. It's got everything you need.

Nathan Dyck

I started at planet fitness over the summer and it was unlike any gym I have ever been too! I really enjoy the traditional style working out and the large variety of free weights and machines supports my working out preferences. I especially enjoy relaxing in the hot tub and pool after a long workout and the various perks make this gym exceptional. They have a steam room, sauna, tanning bed and both a pool and hot tub available for members. Definitely would recommend this gym to friends!

Jon Lewis

I'm going on ten years as a member at Planet Fitness. This place has the whole package. Weights, cardio, core, pool, sauna, hot tub and great hrs. Its helped me keep up with my growing family and helped me fight against the Dad Bod. LOL. Thanks Shawn!

Isabel Herrera

I very happy is small business but you have everything you need

Rob Bryant

Typically, whenever I have to travel for work I chuckle at what is presented as a "Fitness Centre" at the majority of hotels. Often one or two pieces of cardio equipment with a few dumbells peaking at 25 lbs is the norm. When I stayed at the Radisson in Red Deer last month I was expecting much of the same and was completely blown away when I took the elevator down to the basement where Planet Fitness is located. I have been lifting weights for over 25 years and this is the kind of gym I would buy a regular membership to. It had an old school feel about it, like Gold's Venice in the classic bodybuilding documentary, "Pumping Iron." Some of the equipment was old but in top notch condition. I miss the sound of solid iron 45lb plates clanging in most commercial gyms nowadays. Both patrons and staff were very friendly. Usually I end up missing workouts when I'm on the road but this time I had one of the best I've had in a long time. The gym alone is a reason to stay at the Radisson in Red Deer and if you are a resident who likes old school blood and guts weightlifting, this gym may be right up your alley.

AVOID THIS MERCHANT I have tried canceling my membership 5 times. 3 times in person and twice over the phone, and continue to be charged for a service I wasn’t even able to use during COVID shutdown and am not using now. My only option is to file a chargeback with the bank.

Tyler Montgomery

Planet Fitness has been my gym for over a year now, and I wouldn't go anywhere else. It has everything a serious bodybuilder would need, and such friendly people go here. The owner is very friendly and helpful as well, he helped me feel welcome when at first I was a little apprehensive about joining a gym. Great place, do recommend.

I've read some equipment is outdated: I would agree, but on the plus side I like working out without a training session to operate equipment. Maintenance takes longer than usual or typical gyms I have belonged to. When you need someone, staff, usually not available, but when they are, super friendly. Also, I hate customer service or training sessions being pushed. When I workout, typically, leave me alone. This particular establishment has a lower than average DB factor. Pleasant! Pricing is average as amenities are usually out of order. Sauna has been out for a while now. Overall awesome place.

Meagan Gaalaas, BSW

I would recommend planet fitness to anyone who's looking to get fit. The management team is always willing to help and give guidence. Most friendly staff. Caring and responsible. If you're a vet to the gym you will love the equipment and the spa to relax after.

Jim Post

Nice Gym, great people, plenty of equipment with no wait times. Nice steam, sauna, pool and hot tube. Some equipment is wearing out and needs replacement but overall a great place to get in shape. Very friendly staff.

Nadine Moores

I join planet fitness..come and check it out..

Skrilla J

Quiet gym and friendly people!

Jonatan Roy

The best gym and Spa in Alberta, you don't just pay for the nice weight section but also for steam room, spa, pool and the great customer experience that you will get with the owner of this amazing place... what a fine gym and spa.

Phil Diep

max mckinnon

Planet fitness is amazing! First club I came too and it's not intimidating at all, all the members are willing to help and there is plenty of personal space and a variety of equipment. Shawn is amazing and very professional. Would strongly recommend this gym.

Tyrone McDonald

AWESOME GYM!! I have been working out at planet fitness for about 8 years. This facility has a pool, waterfall hot tub and a fantastic steam room.

Steven Gauthier

Great gym, great people, best price!

Tom Olsen

I have been a member for over 8 years. The gym has a great atmosphere and is always clean. There's plenty of space and equipment to accommodate any type of workout.

Eder Arias Santini

It has been an amazing experience working out at this gym, only been coming here for 3 weeks and the people here are amazing, it's a very good environment to be in.

Terry Sobkowich

I really like Planet fitness in Red Deer, The prices are great, the staff is excellent and the atmosphere is relaxed and mature .It is quiet and usually never overcrowded . The setup is not super fancy but its everything a person needs the equipment is nice and exactly what I wanted. The pool area , because it shares with the hotel , is something no other gym can match. I recommend it highly.

Layne Atkinson

Not open on time. Don't recommend !

Victoria McCagherty

VERY RUDE!!!! Just called and asked if this location was the same as planet fitness in Saskatchewan and the man who answered replied with “we have no pizza,no bagels and no tootsie rolls” we aren’t an American.... Haha excuse me? That was not my question, also that comment was really aggressive and I truthfully don’t care if you have any food at your location. That is not what I asked you. He then said “I am really busy with clients” and repeated the same rude comment about food ! So guess what you just lost a client, you just pushed me away from signing up. It was a simple question that could have been answered with respect. I will never encourage people to come to your location now, I felt judged from a simple 45 second call.

Chad Protasiewich

Huge gym all the amenities

keep looking

avoid this gym at all costs

Ryker Kelly

Planet fitness is the best gym I have been to they have lots of great things that most other gyms don't offer. It is a very clean facility and the owner is extremely nice and works hard to make sure your needs are met.

Curtis Baird

I have tried most gyms in red deer and planet fitness is definetly the most positive, and energetic experiences. The space is amazing with every machine you could ask for, and my personal favourite is the spa. Great pool, steam room, and beautiful hot tub with a relaxing waterfall. I would recommend anyone to give these guys a try, because you can't beat the price and the hospitality!

Lance Bell

Love this place, will not go anywhere else. Changed my life and the staff is great. Shawn knows his stuff, lots of options for equipment. Great atmosphere, and not usually over crowded, and i can get through my routine with little to no interruptions.

Jadie Reichenbach

I'm from Calgary and this is my go-to place to work out everytime I'm working in the Red Deer area. Very friendly staff. You can tell the place has been well taken care of by the cleanliness and shape of the equipment. Not too busy. I would highly recommend this place

Heather Schulz

If you want a gym membership for life this is the place for you! I've canceled my membership 6 times and still getting charged. I can't get out of this! Worst service I've ever had anywhere!

Dustin MacDonald

Joe Clark

Been here a week. Nice hotel, the gym is wicked. Such a nice change to the normal gym you would get in a hotel. Great staff, clean place. I'll stay here again for sure.

Mark Jimioff

I recently used planet fitness for the first time this week. The employees were friendly and accommodating. The equipment was clean and in good shape. Hand sanitizer and equipment spray bottles were plentiful. This is the best gym I have ever used at a hotel. It rates up there with any gym I have used in the past. Thanks for a great experience. ????

Jeff Mallette

If you like being charged after attempting to cancel your membership numerous times, this is the place for you! And the owner can respond with me not being a member due to my display name. That's fine, but changes nothing folks.

gordon fisher

Terrible gym with an unprofessional owner.

Dawson Brown

Planet Fitness is an amazing gym to workout in. The atmosphere is relaxed and not intimidating at all the staff is very friendly and happy to help! The free weights and machines are amazing. I would recommend this gym highly!

J

Called about prices and if they were related to the states planet fitness, I was sternly told that the Canada brand is saving the world through helping people while the American one somehow contributes to the weight problem. Even though the drastically cheaper option is the american one which in my opinion actually helps reduce obesity by making it accessible to poor people whom statistically are more overweight. I think I get the elitist drift going on over there

Derek Paul

Great club with friendly atmosphere. Shawn is a very informative and helpful. Definitely recommend gym.

Landen Burkley

Shawn at planet fitness.. man what can I say... the customer service is incredible and the oxy bar really got me going for hockey I wish there was more of these establishments around. Unreal business

Jeb Aldred

Finally found a gym that I enjoy in Red Deer.

E

Why no answer if they are open 24 hours. They need to update their phone message.

michele krans

Very friendly staff, nice and quiet atmosphere!

jacob wiebe

Excellent tanning booth you have Shawn! When I need a tan, swim or workout I know where to go since I arrived in Red Deer since 2007. I have seen gyms before this one is clean and up to standards anytime I come in. Friendly people. I remember you talking me to join Shawn the best thing you could have done for me. THANK YOU

Mark Molchanko

Joined plant fitness at a great rate highly recommended!!!

Justin Lucas

The equipment is a little bit older, but there is good variety available and is typically in good repair. Not usually super busy, do not usually have to wait long for access on a specific machine. The staff is always very friendly, and having access to the hot tub and steam room is just icing on the cake. In my opinion, this gym is much more enjoyable then some of the larger chains that have been popping up in Red Deer.

mark debay

The best gym in Red Deer Alberta in my opinion. Amazing staff and all up to date equipment. Great staff that go above and beyond to meet your needs . Pssss there is also a pool and hot tub .. pretty great spot

Suzan Smith

Management was extremely rude and unprofessional.

Austin Larsen

Very good gym! Well taken care of, clean, good prices. I would definitely recommend this gym to a friend.

David Saboe

I love how nice and respectful the staff is and the machines there are very very easy to use I think people should buy a membership at this gym

Joshua Paquette

Turns people down for being in too good of shape? ???? Joke of a gym! Dont waste your money everyone

Michael Wellington

The gym is awesome, has everything you need. Even has some great old school machines you can't find anymore if you want a good ol iron gym! Staff at the front desk was a pleasure to deal with and was very accommodating.

Ken Bishop

I have been working out for over 38 years, yes I know this gives away my age (54) but I have to say - planet fitness is the best by far.... If you're into cardio, circuit training or simply wanting to have an environment of which to excel and achieve all your weight goals this is the place for you. People that are members are always willing to help you and the staff are extremely educated in all forms of exercise as well as programs that will help you get the most of your workout. Many of you should know that Shawn (owner) has been involved in bodybuilding and nutrition for over 3 decades. He is extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of fitness and is a blessing to know. Shawn is unlike any other staff member that you come across in the fitness industry, others care only of money then move on. If anyone is seriously wanting to improve themselves then I would recommend Planet Fitness without hesitation. Being a member gives you more than a membership card, it also provides the best members that are respectful, polite and care about eachother..... All I can say is that it's an experience all in itself, I promise you that you will enjoy it all... Sincerely Ken

Duane Putsey
