Golds Gym

I’m a very shy person. I like the side area where you can lay a mat down, use their mats, Pilate balls and rollers. The staff is friendly, and greet you when you come in, and say goodby as I leave. They keep things pretty clean too.

I see people giving bad reviews about this gym basically this gym is to do your work out for the day and get out you’re not in a resort. staff is really friendly and helpful I actually had some problems with some product they sold to my son and Julio (gym manager), helped me a lot. The membership is cheap but like any other contract they are penalties and fees, overall the gym is ok to accomplish a good workout no luxury but all the basics

This is my favorite gym in the area. I absolutely love it here!
First off, staff is phenomenal. Everyone is so pleasant and helpful. I’ve had problems at different gyms for various reasons, such as stalker personal trainers or just rude, pompous employees. I’ve never had a problem here. Just really nice people, who seem to enjoy their job.
Second, I really like how clean this place is. I can’t tell you how big of a germaphobe I am… the gym itself is always clean. Not to mention the hand sanitizer is always full as well as the soap in the bathroom.
They also have what looks like really yummy smoothie bar that I have yet to try it.
I feel as if this place has a nice eclectic mix of people… not a ton of gorillas grunting and making a scene. And not a ton of princess’s prancing around pretending to workout. Just the perfect mix that makes a good gym a fun place to get your «swole» on

Pros:
— Surprisingly good powerlifting culture here. There are some very strong lifters.
— Cool general staff
Cons:
— Very overpriced
— Poorly equipped (only one cheap, old squat rack, 2 cheap benches which are dangerous to lift heavy on, no platforms, cheap and bent bars)
— Hex plates, no bumper plates
— Asshole general manager who is rule crazy. I got thrown out for deadlifting without shoes on…
Takeaway:
If you’re a new years resolution lifter and you want to walk on a treadmill and do some bicep curls, this is a great gym for you. If you want to actually get strong, go somewhere else.

Very disappointed with this gym. They ran a good ad to get me to join for a cheap rate. I was aware that the next month the monthly rate would increase but as soon as I signed the contract I was informed that in the next month I would ALSO be paying an annual maintenance fee even though I would only be there for 5 months. I immediately noticed that the facility was not up to par, mostly the locker room. The steam room was broken for the whole first month, the locker room was hot, humid, and smelly and when the steam room was actually fixed it stunk so bad it was unusable. When I contacted the manager, Julio, to explain the situation and ask for a waive on the annual maintenance fee he was very rude, annoyed, and unprofessional. The assistant manager, Matt or Mike or whoever, was the same way in person. Very unhelpful. I soon cancelled my membership and although I was suppose to be active for another 30 – 45 days after cancelation I was no longer a member at the end of the month which was like 15 days later. Oh, there was also a 3 inch cockroach in the men’s locker room one of my last days. I wish I could post a picture of it here.

Love the fitness classes that are free with the membership!

Nice gym with all the basics, aerobic machines (treadmills, bikes, ellipticals, stair machines), LOTS of weight machines, and free weights. Spinning room (stationary bikes). Workout studio for classes. I saw a judo/​karate class going on.
The ellipitcals are not the newest, but are totally acceptable/​good/​serviceable. My only complaint was that the length-​of-​stride on the ellipticals was small for me, and I’m 5’10″. I still got a good work-​out.
They have one rowing machine, a Concepts-​2, with a readout that shows the information of time, meters, calories, etc. That’s cool, you don’t see many rowing machines at gyms.
Clean men’s room and shower facilities. Includes steam room (not a «sauna».)
Lots of TVs. (Not a TV on every machine but some bikes do). All the aerobic machines had an audio unit where you plug in your headphones, and select which TV you want to listen to.
Plug in your ipod directly to most treadmills.
Decent rates for tourists, $ 42.40 (after tax) for 7 days. Like others said, there is a good cross section of clientele: some people who are already in shape, some muscle-​heads, some people who are trying to get into shape, plus some of «the beautiful people» who wear full make-​up to the gym.
They have a bar that sells custom-​made smoothies/​shakes for pre– and post– workout, plus lots of bottled water, sports drinks, and juices.

Decent gym, nothing to brag about. However I lost my job and had to relocate. Golds wouldnt let me cancel at the gym so I tryed to send in my $ 50 cancelation fee to the credit place they use. I am still being billed and harassed by the company who seems to refuse my cancelling of the membership. I will never deal with this franchise again because of this!

Who better to write a review about a gym than a guy who looks like he’s never been to one?
Actually, I don’t think there is a better guy. Some no-​neck musclepath (that’s suppose to be muscle bound + sociopath, I’m not sure it works) is going to go no matter what. If I don’t like a gym, I’m not going.
This place is right around the corner from my grandmother’s condo in Jupiter so it was a perfect place for me to go while I was in town for a week. The weekly pass wasn’t too bad ($ 45) price wise. The workout space is basically one large open room. All cardio equipment is to the right and they have a lot of treadmills, ellipticals and stationary bikes. Minor minus for just having the several TVs above the cardio area instead of individual TVs at each machine. My gym near home has that, but I’m spoiled.
They had all the machines that I need, and most of them were new. There was also a good sized free weights area as well. Again, small minus because while most machines were new, a couple were really out of date and in need of upgrading post haste.
They have a room for classes, but that’s not my thing so I’ve got no idea. The days I went I was there early in the morning, around 7am. It was busy, but not too bad. Basically, if you’re in town for a quick trip, I can definitely recommend it. And for people looking for a permanent gym, the Gold’s is definitely worth a look.
