Planet Fitness

Running a fitness facility in Randburg means adapting to load shedding realities that gyms elsewhere don't face. Planet Fitness manages the practical challenges—generator power for cardio circuits, scheduled class times around electricity rotations, and member communication when schedules shift. The work involves maintaining equipment through power fluctuations, ensuring backup systems keep the gym functioning during stage 6 blackouts, and offering alternative options on days when grid supply is unreliable. Members understand these constraints because everyone in Johannesburg does, but executing consistent service despite infrastructure disruptions is what separates gyms that survive the Eskom era from those that don't.
