It’s not too late to get in shape for the summer, and if you’re between the ages of 15 and 18, Planet Fitness is offering a pretty sweet deal to get you to start working out, too.
Beginning May 15 and ending Sept. 1, teens who fall within that age range will be able to work out for free at Planet Fitness gym locations nationwide!
It’s called the Teen Summer Challenge and comes at a time when nearly half of American high school-age teens aren’t getting in enough strength exercises throughout the week:
According to a High School Youth Risk Behavior Survey by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 49% of U.S. teens don’t spend at least three days per week exercising to strengthen or tone their muscles.
Teens can go to any Planet Fitness to sign up. Parents will have to sign off for anyone under 18. Once signed up, teens can work out alone, but only at the location where they registered.
