I’m in Johnston and have a few memberships. I’m an old school lifter, and I’m obsessed with Power House in CT and General Fitness in Fall River… but those are for special occasions sadly. Instead, I make due with Work out World in East Providence (there’s one in Warwick but it isn’t as good), LA Fitness in Cranston, and on days when I really don’t have time to go that far, Planet Fitness in Johnston.

Surprisingly, I can get a good back or arms workout in at Planet Fitness. Chest and Legs aren’t great there, and shoulders are mediocre. If you’re serious about lifting and can plan accordingly, it doesn’t hurt to have go to gyms for certain things. I don’t mind driving to EP on a Saturday morning for legs, for example, but I’m not going to sit on the 6/10 for 30 minutes on a Thursday afternoon for it when I can do back at planet fitness.

And I’m rambling. I have zero hobbies aside from lifting and being from Johnston so this post hit all the right points lol
