Quote of note
“We’re seeing more people think about fitness as the full picture—how they move, how they recover and how they feel day to day,” said Abby Salenga, Marketing and Communications Manager at Houston Fitness Partners, a Planet Fitness franchise group. “Our new Maplewood location reflects that shift. It gives our members access to tools that help them take better care of their bodies without having to go anywhere else.”
More details
The Maplewood club will also feature a dedicated turf area for functional training with power racks, a deadlift platform and plate-loaded options. The gym also includes a variety of strength, cardio and functional workout equipment.

Planet Fitness will host a preview party May 16 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. for the community to receive an early look at the new space. The event will include vendors onsite, guided tours and presale rates.
