How about free pizza with your workout? Planet Fitness pulls in newbie gym goers with a $10-a-month membership fee and food giveaways.
Planet Fitness Inc. is expanding by going lean, pulling in customers with a $10-a-month membership fee and a no-frills atmosphere.

The fitness chain, one of the country’s fastest-growing, also taps into the workout-enthusiast segment by serving them as a cheap second gym.
