Default Golds Gym


Does anyone work out at one?

I just signed up for the new one that is going to be in Loveland. The hours are going to better fit my schedule and it will be less of a hang out than the city gym.

I do. It's awful -- dirty and limited equipment. But I think that's because I live in an area of old people. I've heard that many of the Gold's gyms are well equipped.

The Gold's Gym in Methuen, MA has every piece of equipment you could ask for. It also has a swimming pool. The place is immaculate.

The Bethlehem, PA Golds is disgusting at best. Dumbbells go to 150, but are old and falling apart, place has absolutly no ventilation (trying to do a widowmaker doesn't work), and theres no room whatsoever. But, theres a new one in Hackettstown, NJ near me thats huge and I hear is wonderful.

the golds gym here in auburn is extremely crowded. i was a member at kaz gym (owned by bill kzameier's ex-wife) and when it shut down they transferred my membership to gold's. i walked in, took one look at the crowd of people, and immediately cancelled my membership.

From what they say this one is going to be very nice, it remains to be seen what the dumbells go up to. In the past I judged a lot of gyms by exactly that.

I need to do something to get/stay in shape this proffesion is tough on the body and diet. Mostly the diet ..

Well the Gold's gym's here are all nice and the one they just built at the largest mall in the world (West Edmonton Mall) is stunning. So if it's a new gym I'm sure it will be great.

I don't train there regularly, but every so often I'm there with my friend (the guy who got me into training). I'm going tomorow.

What do the look like? I've seen some strong guys there before, and I've seen some HUGE guys to. I'll make a note if I see any with PSU shirts on.

It is going to be an AWESOME! gym!!!

They opened up the temp section of 10k square feet it puts every other gym in the area to shame. It is all top notch equipment I have never seen much of it but then few people have.

The gym manager stopped by and talked to me a for while all of the equipment is brand new they figure there is about ten gyms in the US set up like it. And none of them are a Golds Gym....

I had a great workout.....

Hey, Dan. I'm jealous. When I lived up there from 93-05 I worked out at Pulse and Gym of the Rockies. I loved the latter, except the hours. Is your Gold's 24 hour?

I now live in Vegas and belong to a very reputable gold's gym.

I waited forever and ever up there for a gold's and now that I left they are geting one?
