Gold's Gym Slaughter & South Congress

I have never been able to get a squat rack because they are always taken or people don’t respect me waiting for one and just grab it before I can walk up (I’ve been at all different times of the day) Half of their equipment is currently broken and they don’t have air conditioning on the main floor. If there was a gym closer to me I would go to it but this is the only one within 15 minutes of me. I’m pretty close to biting the bullet and getting a lifetime membership.

Have experienced several Golds in the area and this is the best hands down. All the big stuff you want is outside (tires, sleds and such) and all the rest indoors. Kristi is always there to help you out with anything you need and goes the extra mile. She definitely puts the customer in customer service. Everyone tends to be polite, work in, and that goes a long way.

The gym itself is very solid. There is a good variety of machines/equipment and it's kept relatively clean. The crowd is brutal from 6:00am-8:00am and 4:00pm-7:30pm. The addition of the outdoor equipment has helped make rush hours a lot more manageable. Hopefully they add some dumbbells and squat racks to the outdoor area. Overall a decent spot!

Although a relatively clean gym, there is no real off peak time. You will spend more time waiting for a machine than working out. Once you find a machine, you will be bombarded by guys asking how much longer you will be or asking to cut in. Embarrassing small for the size of the crowd that uses it.

Let me first start out by saying the staff here is friendly and will often do what they can to accommodate. However, the equipment here is extremely limited and the facility is often over crowded. This is also the first time I’ve experienced a gym refusing to let their paying customers use their cycle studio without an active class. I would understand if they had bikes available outside of the studio for use but they don’t. Is this an insurance issue or liability that the gym refuses to own? Please someone explain it to me. Thanks in advance.

The gym itself is really nice but they need to address the lack of room during peak hours. Never have I seen a golds gym THIS packed during peak hours. It’s nearly impossible to get a workout in if you work out between 3-8pm.They need to address this.

Just moved to the area and wanted to try the local golds. I was welcomed by Logan. She did an incredible job answering my questions and making sure I had an excellent introduction to the gym. Couldn’t have been happier with the service and employees here.

This gym has a great energy and the staff are incredibly friendly overall.I recognize that the following critique could be a general one for all gyms. However, this gym is significantly worse — blockers.There are almost four instances every week I go to this gym where people are blatantly texting or watching videos while sitting on machines. They take 10-15 minutes at a time to just sit there. There has to be a way of moving traffic along, as often times multiple people are waiting.

Love the environment here! Favorite Gold’s in town, the gym would fall apart without Luis! Big shout out to Luis always brings great energy to the gym.

I love this gym so far I been in this gym for over a year now. I love the staff their so nice to me and they even say hi and bye to me if I’m leaving or coming in the front doors. The equipment are nice and the bathrooms are clean which I really like about it. Thank u guys for having me.
