About the Total Body Enhancement Machine: If super endurance athlete Amelia uses red light therapy, maybe I should too (gah I’m such a sheep). I knew it contained red light therapy bulbs, but that was the extent of my knowledge.īut now I was intrigued. So this Instagram Elite athlete (it was Amelia Boone) reminded me that with my Planet Fitness black card membership, I get free hydro massages (yay), free tanning (say no to skin cancer) and free use of the Total Body Enhancement machine, which I’ve never bothered setting foot in. Back to the Total Body Enhancement machine. All of that, and I can bring my husband (or anyone else for that matter, but he is my favorite) as a “guest” as many times as I want, for $20 a month.

Planet Fitness, as it turns out, is not as horrible of a place as I once imagined it to be. But Heather, I thought you hated Planet Fitness? Immediately my mind thought of the “ Total Body Enhancement” contraptions at my local Planet Fitness. I was scrolling through Instagram stories, because that’s been my favorite distraction lately, despite the fact that I’m somewhat angry with Instagram for shortening users attention spans and therefore ruining the blogging industry.Īs I scrolled through the daily IG “story” of an elite endurance athlete I admire, my (short) attention was grabbed by a boomerang video of her in a red light therapy bed.
