I have been a member of two in two different states. The membership staff are pushy, annoying and full of shit. If a gym doesn't have Hammer Strength in there its not the best gym it can be. Of course IMO.
The Gold's I go to is good, but I've been to ones that are pure shit... It varies from gym to gym, especially the franchised ones like Lift or Die pointed out.
the golds in venice is probably one of the best, but outside that its just a name, they suck ass, except venice and a couple of others, however they do probably have some of the best equipment compared to other corporate gyms, and other gyms.
i prefer power house. but the best one was olympic health club in east islip ny. too bad it went under. great atmusfhere frindly staff,
good equiptment.
ballys sucks bigtime, as for golds,powerhouse,world, depends on
who runs it. it could be good or it could suck. i have been to two golds, world, and powerhouse.
The gold's gym near me has purple equipment, neon lights, and play nothing but britney spears and other pop shit. It is quite possibly the worst gym I have ever seen. Unless you are a raging homo.
Word. One Gold's gym may suck, while another may be good. What the hell kind of a post is this? I bet you're one of those people who works for the corporation and infiltrates chat rooms and discussion boards promoting a products. I saw something like this on 20/20.
