Planet Fitness Locations in Rockford Will Require Mask-Wearing

Planet Fitness announced Monday that masks will be required at all of its locations beginning August 1. Quarantine kept a lot of people from the gym, and we couldn't wait to get back to it. But working out is not the same as it was 6 months ago.

The latest change to hit some gyms? Wearing a mask WHILE working out. Planet Fitness has already taken additional steps to increase the cleanliness and put in procedures to help keep members, guests and employees safe. But now there's one more policy in place. Masks.

Planet Fitness's website details -

We want our members to gym confidently in a safe environment, therefore, we’ve enhanced our safety and cleaning policies. Beginning August 1st, masks are required to be worn while inside our clubs – including members and PF Team Members.

They want to let their members know that in case they forget a mask, they can always stop by the front desk and ask for one.

So if you're a Planet Fitness go-er, don't forget to put a mask in your gym bag!
