Flint & Saginaw Planet Fitness Offering Free Workouts for Factory Workers

Factory workers get in free this weekend at Planet Fitness locations throughout the Flint and Saginaw areas.

As the United Auto Workers Strike against the Big Three automakers continues, Planet Fitness is opening up area clubs for free workouts for all factory workers.

Not Just for Autoworkers

According to a press release from Planet Fitness, this offer extends to all factory workers in the area, not just those who are employed in the automotive industry.

Factory workers can work out for free all day Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, September 29 through October 1.

Bryan Rief is the CEO of the Epic Fitness Group which operates Planet Fitness. He says Planet Fitness is simply giving back to the community that supports its clubs.

“With all that is going on in our areas, this is an opportunity for us to give back during these challenging times. Exercise, including walking, jogging, and cycling have been proven to reduce anxiety, depression, and negative moods," he says. "We hope people will take advantage and stop by Planet Fitness for a little stress relief this weekend.”

10 Planet Fitness Locations Are Participating

The company owns 10 Planet Fitness locations throughout the Flint and Saginaw area. Factory workers who are looking to take advantage of the offer this weekend simply need to bring a photo ID and an employee ID to prove that they are employed by a local factory.
