Planet Fitness Bans Squat Racks, Promptly Loses Our Support

Not that we were supporting Planet Fitness in the first place! We just didn't have any beef with them I guess...

According to members of Planet Fitness (one who specifically worked out between 12AM and 4AM to avoid the "lunk alarm"), the so-called uber-member friendly gym has now banned open squat racks and removed them from all their... planets of fitness?

But that's not it! They also move out all the free benches and replaced with - wait for it.... bench machines! Oh yea! Time to push some cables, baby!

PF is citing cost savings through lowering their insurance  rates by removing the equipment. Is this a reasonable business move or continuation of the soft, lazy America?

This video is outrageous by the way...
