Gold's Gym

Plenty of parking, and there are only a handful of people in the mornings, so you don't have to wait for machines. Locker room area and bathrooms are clean, staff are welcoming and knowledgeable. Gym goers are respectful and mind their own business, probably what I love best about this gym. Only setbacks are they don't have most strongman training implements (yokes, tires, logs, atlas stones etc.) a reverse hyper machine or push and pull sleds. They got great squat racks with high pull up bars and you can also do Olympic lifts on, sadly you cant use chalk. Although, grunting and dropping weights isn't frowned upon, so its got that going for it. Face masks are encouraged but not enforced, but you must enter and exit with a face mask.Overall, I would say its definitely not a strongman, powerlifting, bodybuilding, or crossfit gym. But if you wanna go to a gym with plenty of parking, not so many gym goers that are considerate and mind their own business then this is the gym for you. Its why I love this gym.Now that the new mask mandates has changed (I added this on 3/21/22). The only difference is no one wears masks. There are still plenty of parking, and not so many members on the floor at any one time. If you are a social butterfly bring a friend to talk to. Members here are friendly, but you will see if you just look around for 15 mins, members are here to put in work and get after it. So bring your PR's, your body transformations, fitness goals, and overall healthy lifestyles because this is your gym and remember its a weight room not a chat room.

Unsafe gym. 4 weeks and they still haven’t repaired this.Edit: I reported this 6 weeks ago and they still have not fixed it. The front desk didn’t care when I told them.

This is a great gym, always incredibly clean and all the equipment you could need. Separate rooms for different types of workouts. The staff are awesome. They’re friendly and helpful. Sauna is nice too.

I went in to the Vancouver mall gym to sign up today after not using golds gym for about three years. When I originally signed up in 2018 I had a month to month membership with no contract. I moved away to Hawaii (therefore I could not use the gym in Hawaii because its locally owned here in Vancouver) and they continued to bill me for almost a full year even though I clearly told them that I moved. This should not be an issue anyways because I was on a month to month membership!!! Not a contract…SO Instead of canceling my month to month no contract account that shows I clearly have not checked in or been to the gym in over a year, They continue to bill me every month. Then they try to tell me that I am responsible for that full year and that they have sent me to collections…. Which literally never showed up on my collections….. So instead of gaining a customer today And righting their wrongs, They told me I am not eligible to sign up until I pay off the $280 worth of membership fees.. what a joke. Today I could’ve been a paying customer of golds gym But because of poor management, poor personal skills, and poor communication skills by the staff they have not gained a customer and they will never get paid the $280 that they claim that I owe them. I highly recommend looking for a different gym.

Quality equipment and friendly staff, horrible hours.I’ve been a member since this place opened and I love it here. Before covid the hours were acceptable, now the hours are unreasonable. I usually go in the evenings and it’s impossible to get there and have time to workout on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Due to my Schedule it’s impossible for me to get there on Mondays and Tuesdays also. If they don’t extend the hours soon I’m going to have to cancel and join a gym that’s actually open when I need to workout.I’m also paying extra each month for “towel service,” which was cancelled during covid, but my membership fee was not adjusted. The towel service still has not returned, yet I still pay extra each month.

Great gym. Besides normal stuff like showers there are 2 tanning rooms and 2 massage chairs. It's clean and not so busy on prime time (4.00pm - 8.00pm). At least yet. Stuff is polite and willing to help if you have questions.

The gym was closed during Covid 19, but she was still charged monthly, and was promised a credit once Covid was over. The credit never came, and we've been trying to quit for months. This location just pawns us off to their membership email, which doesn't respond well, and if you call you get a call center in a foreign country. They are finally going to cancel her account, but they want to keep charging, and they won't give any kind of a credit.It's a predatory system they have, and clearly don't care about their customers. I'd love for a regional manager to contact me to clear this up, as I'll never use Gold's Gym again otherwise.

Honestly I'm good with the gym. Great selection of free weights and machines. Enough room to spread out and have space. People keep the head down and workout. 3 of 5 starts because of the inconsistencies with the sauna which is a major option to have available. If the gym is open the sauna should be open. Not heating up and not closed for cleaning. Those should be timed appropriately so the sauna is ready for use when the door is opened. Saunas are used for increased endurance, muscle mass, stress tolerance etc. And the gym is taking away this opportunity from the people who go early.

I joined with a one month membership while I was in town dealing with a family emergency. The gym was clean and all the staff was extremely professional and kind. If I lived in the area I would definitely make this place my home gym.

Was an amazing gym when they had their child care center so parents can workout. Sadly, the pandemic took that away with my ability to go to the gym.Still a great gym with a great location and friendly staff. And the cardio theater is awesome.Just miss the awesome daycare with guilt free workouts.
