Register now online and in-club for the Planet Fitness High School Summer Pass (a program where teens can enjoy free workouts between June and August).
The national gym chain has been letting teens workout for free during the summer since 2018. What started as a pilot program in Planet Fitness’ home state of New Hampshire quickly grew to be a nationwide hit. Now, these free workouts are available at the more than 2,000 Planet Fitness locations.
It’s at least $35 worth of workout fees for free. We’ll tell you all about the program, how to sign up for the Summer Pass, and what adults can expect.
(Not a teen? It’s all good — we’re amassing a list of free workouts for adults, too.)
Planet Fitness Summer Pass, where teens (ages 14 – 19) can work out for free.
The Planet Fitness Summer Pass lets teens workout for free from Saturday, June 1 through Saturday, Aug. 31, 2024. Plus, there are no time limits with the Summer Pass; participants can work out anytime during their local Planet Fitness gym’s hours.
With the Summer Pass teens can also take advantage of free fitness classes through the Planet Fitness PE@PF program at participating locations. You can sign up for classes through the free Planet Fitness mobile app or by visiting your local club.
Skip using your school email for the Summer Pass registration.
Many student discounts require you to have an edu. email as proof of eligibility. However, the Planet Fitness Summer program recommends using a non edu. email address because some don't allow outside emails.
Teens can sign up for the Summer Pass online or in-club (with parent permission).
To sign up for the High School Summer Pass program at Planet Fitness, teens can register at PlanetFitness.com or in person at any PF club (you must present a valid ID to sign up). Teens who are under 18 must have a parent or guardian sign the electronic waiver or be present to sign the waiver in-club.
After the waiver is signed, participants who are under 18 or the age of majority in their jurisdiction can work out alone (without an adult).
Once the summer ends, a Planet Fitness base-level membership will be $15/month. That's up from their $10 a month and the first price hike in over 25 years, making the Summer Pass an even better bargain.
Download the Planet Fitness app.
After you register for the Planet Fitness Summer membership, you'll need to download the Planet Fitness app if you don't already have it. Next, you'll have to create a Planet Fitness account to access your selected Planet Fitness club from June 1 - Aug. 31, 2024.
When you create your Planet Fitness account, be sure to use the same email address that you used to register for the Planet Fitness Summer Pass. This will ensure they automatically link on June 1 so you're ready to workout.
If you sign up with the wrong email address, you can just create a new Planet Fitness account with the correct email address by repeating the Summer Pass signup steps.
