What People Are Saying About Gold's Gym

The Scene – Conan the Barbarian and the Incredible Hulk (aka Arnold Schwarzenegger and Lou Ferrigno) lifted weights at the Venice, Calif., flagship years ago, but even today, customers frequenting charter locations are bound to encounter serious muscle. Take note: The boys with bulging biceps are the mascots, not the majority. – – The Workout – Gold's generally offers Spinning, aerobics and kickboxing classes, yet the core of the program has always been weight training. Dumbbells and barbells, not spa-like amenities, are the rule. Ultimately, stalwarts at this gym…

Colds Gym Hollywood

by sammyrrrr at Citysearch

This is a fine place to work out if you don't mind cold air conditioned air being blown onto your face while you are on any cardio machine . If you are effected by cold air I would not recommend wasting your time or money.

Aside from that, it is a moderately maintained and moderately clean. It's nothing fancy but, you do get what you pay for. Parking is available one block away.

  • Pros: it's cheap
  • Cons: too cold + serious artificial wind chill factor

not just for the muscle-bound

by jrush at Citysearch

I've been at this gym for 3 years and I couldn't be happier. yeah, there is plenty of free-weight, plate-loaded, and traditional machines for pumping iron, as well as numerous cardio contraptions....however, it should be known that the gym has an extensive list of classes, all taught by highly qualified, energetic, and engaging instructors...everything from yoga and pilates to kick-boxing, hip-hop, or spinning. i barely even lift weights at all anymore (i used to live for it!) but i still feel like i'm at the best gym for just about anything i want to do for my workouts! also, the nice tanning beds and delicious smoothie options certainly add to the experience!

For the serious

by tireolas at Citysearch

If you're looking for the latest fly-by-night trend, this isn't the gym for you. Although the Hollywod face-lift last year added a trendy juice bar, this gym is still aimed to the serious weight-lifter and excerciser. Gold's Gym has all the right equipment and layout for those who come to workout and lift weights. The equipment is always in working order and even during peak time it isn't too hard to get on the machines you need. There's also a great selection of classes from step to yoga.

  • Pros: excellent equipment, free parking, classes
  • Cons: no sauna, no pool
