BEDFORD-STUVYESANT — Get your workout on at Fulton Street's newest gym.

Planet Fitness opened its doors near the corner of Fulton Street and Arlington Place this week, offering new members a bargain rate of $10 a month.

The exercise chain houses treadmills, ellipticals, stair climbers, free weights and bikes on the ground floor and lockers are located on the basement level.

Fitness buffs can also use the gym’s heated hydromassage services, as well as tanning facilities and “vibra-shape,” red-light therapy which uses vibration and light to improve tone and skin.

The new spot at 1245 Fulton St. opened on Oct. 12, according to employees, and touts a “Judgment Free Zone.”

Visitors can sign up with a $1 one-time start up fee, followed by $10 a month billed to a checking account, according to the location’s offer.

The deal expires Nov. 24 and includes unlimited fitness training.

For an extra $10 each month, members can get the Planet Fitness Black Card, which offers unlimited use of locations nationwide, among other features. The chain operates 10 sites in Brooklyn.

Further down Fulton Street near Brooklyn Avenue, a Blink Fitness is in the works to replace a former health center.

Bed-Stuy’s Planet Fitness is open 24 hours from Monday through Thursday and closes at 10 p.m. on Fridays. The gym is open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on weekends.
