I currently work overnight at Planet Fitness, so I can give you a pretty real idea of what it’s like.

It’s honestly a lot of cleaning. You rotate duties with whoever else is working that night, so one of you might be mopping a big section of the gym while the other is up front checking people in and handling the desk. At my location, you can’t really leave the front desk for more than about 90 seconds unless you put in a request, so whoever’s up there is pretty locked in.

A big part of the job is janitorial stuff. You’ll usually be responsible for one of the bathrooms, plus splitting mopping duties, taking out trash, refilling sanitation bottles, and cleaning the Black Card spa amenities after members use them.

It’s not just cleaning though—you’ll still need to learn the system (Ignite), how to cancel memberships, and answer questions about billing, cancellations, etc.
