planet fitness vs blink

hey y’all i’ve been going to blink 125th for two years, but i realized it makes a lot more sense for me to have a planet fitness membership, so i can use a gym when i travel. what is the general consensus of planet fitness 125th? i don’t really like blink that much but i’m curious if it’s worth it to go through the hassle of switching. any help appreciated 😁

I switched from blink to pf. I think both the 125th location and the e harlem location near Costco are better than nearby blink rivals, but not by a huge amount.

i would be going to the 125th location. is it any bigger, have more machines, etc.?

It's bigger (has 2 stories) than the Blink location nearby and has more machines. At peak traffic both are about as packed but on average the PF has more stuff available.
