Everyone is friendly, they offer tons of classes, and the facility is always clean. I enjoy coming here and my kids love it too!

My husband and I joined Gold's Gym in Lorton just under a year ago. I was hesitant to switch gyms because I was very attached to the club I was going to before we moved. However, now that we have been Gold's it feels like home.The staff is extremely welcoming and friendly. The front desk staff, trainers, group fitness instructors, and child care employees are all top of the line. This club offers a variety of class options, and I have yet to take on that I have not enjoyed. Also, if I feel like working out on the floor the equipment is clean and well maintained. We are lucky to have this gym in our backyard and I haven't thought much about my old club since! More...

I love this gym, its huge and has tons of great classes!  The Saturday spin class is the best, you will burn more calories than anything else you could do on a Saturday at 9:00 AM.  Staff is always friendly and helpful.  Recently they have been selling grab and go meals, that are delicious and low cal!

I never was one for such a big place but lately I have wanted to do more classes. This gym has a lot of classes and separate rooms for them. Having a quieter place to have classes is wonderful. Gold's seems to be cleaner. I now see cleaners going around keeping up with everything. Consequently, I don't mind changing in the locker room anymore. A lot of nice equipment both in free weights and machines. A good place to work out. More...

I have been going to Gold's Gym in Culver City since they opened in 2010.  I go to the gym @ 5am on the weekdays and 7am on the weekends.  The opener on the weekdays, Bree is so wonderful!!!  She always opens on time.  She has the most fabulous smile every morning!  She is happy to greet the morning crew everyday!!!  Bree starts my day off right.  If you have any questions or concerns, Bree always answers my questions or takes care of the problem(s).  The gym is the best part of my day and I get to see Bree!!!!!!

My experience with the Culver City Gold's Gym was good and bad. The personal trainers are great! I trained with Stefany Bryan and she really pays attention to your needs. The thing I appreciated most was her close attention to my form. I hadn't lifted weights or worked out much previously so I had no idea what I was doing. She taught me so much!The front desk staff is also great! They welcome you every time you come and go!Where this location fails horribly is with any administration tasks. Management is so unorganized, won't pick up the phone to talk to you, and unhelpful in resolving contact issues. More...

I've been coming to Gold's Gym since 2016 and its been an overall good experience. The facility itself has all the equipment you need and since its at the mall, parking is never an issue and an easy location to get to. I like to bang out my workout and Target run in the same hour. I love my trainer, Stefany Bryan, who is the only female trainer at the location now (get it girl!). She is super attentive to my goals and knows how to get you there if you really want it. Before my sessions, she already has a workout plan ready to go and switches it up each time to keep things fresh. Stefany is very personable and great to chat with while going through my exercises. Its like meeting up with a friend to work out, which makes the gym less of a chore to get done.My only real issue with this place is the administrative. If you find something funny about your account, it takes an excessive amount of follow up and repeating your situation over and over. They keep mentioning "Corporate" and sounds like a cop out. I hear a new sheriff is in town so hopefully things get better. More...

I've been going to Gold's Gym Culver City for over 6 months now and I have nothing but good things to say about this location. Although it is small, it has all the weights, cardio machines, and other gadgets that you could need to have a successful workout. Being in a mall also has its perks, with food and target within steps of the front door.However , the real stars of this location are the staff. All of the workers are friendly, greet me at the front door, and remember my name (which is a plus at a place like a gym which can be sterile and impersonal , but not in this case). During my time at Gold's I have had two personal trainers, but no one compares to my current trainer Stefany Bryan. She is prepared for every workout, with a list of exercises to perform in my circuit. She is diligent and detailed, explaining every workout and which muscle groups are being targeted . Stefany is approachable and enthusiastic, yet firm enough to get me to actually complete my reps (even when it seems like an impossible task). In summation, Stef is the best,  because she keeps me motivated and progressing towards all my goals. Training with her is one of the things that keeps me coming back to Gold's gym! More...

This gyms is small but does not get crowded. Signed up for personal training with Stefany and she is awesome. She challenges be every session and is a great person to relate to. I am only half way through my sessions but will definitely sign up for more PT training ONLY with Stefany. She had great knowledge of form and her workouts are killer. She just understands the goals I want to accomplish and pushes me to do  my best every session. I have recently been adding more weight to my exercises and it is all because of her motivation! I owe it to her for helping me get stronger and stronger in the gym!Would recommend her to my family, friends and colleagues!!! More...

First off I would like to say that the one reason I decided to switch from UFC gym to Golds Gym was because of my first impression with the personal Trainer Josh Cappo. He was extremely welcoming and really showed he cared. After having met with him for my free training session I understood that this was really his passion. Helping people get to the goals they are trying to achieve. I work in sales so I thought "oh here goes a sales pitch" but he truly wanted to know what I needed help with and told me he will get me there as long as I stick to his plans. After now have been training with him for the past couple of weeks I'm super pumped to see the results. Highly recommend anyone who is looking for a great trainer to meet with Josh Cappo. You won't regret it. More...

Faiza  Khan is one of the best personal trainers I have ever had. In less than 6 months, she took me from hardly being able to climb a hill to being able to climb the Yosemite half dome! The following year, I was able to reach the highest point of the Inca Trail of Rainbow Mountain in Peru. That was an altitude of 16,000 feet! After that, on June 17 of this year, I managed to be one of only 6 people out of 12 hiking group members who made it all the way up to Uhuru, the summit of Kilimanjaro, an altitude of 20,000 feet, the highest point in Africa! I never could have accomplished any of these hikes without the constant support and training of Faiza. In fact, when I started with her, I could barely do a couple of push ups without getting out of breath! When I received the certificate for making it to the summit of Kilimanjaro, it was an unforgettable accomplishment, comparable only to receiving my PhD from UCLA. I will continue to have training from her. She is amazing! I am very lucky to have her as a trainer.   Thank you so much Faiza-  Grace More...

I’ve been so focused on helping people this past year with meeting their weight loss goals, writing up kettlebell workouts, my business then on top of that homeschooling, self education, everyday mom life, I’ll be quiet honest. . started to get pretty overwhelmed. I had no more time for my own home workouts or energy left to finish the day and be a happy person. I needed a change, get away from the house. That’s when I started researching gyms near me that have day care. Despite 3 star yelp reviews on this location I still wanted to go in and take a good look at myself. Im so happy I did. I honestly don’t have anything bad to say about this place. Folks that left negative reviews about membership- don’t y’all read fine print before signing? Everything is clearly printed. When shopping around for a gym, Always ask about cancellation fines and other fees that go with closing your membership. Most gyms have some type of a fine. Gym equipment out dated? no, they are not. Golds gym has a great selection on all of their equipment, from fancy to standard to old school machines. You choose what suits you best. Place is nice and clean, they do a pretty great job with cleanliness. Staff is friendly and super helpful. Their kids zone sealed the deal for me. The ladies that run that place are AWESOME! My kiddos love it. They do projects, kids fit, games, music... you name it, they do it! My kids can’t wait to go back every day. (Motivates me to get out of the house even more) Love Antonio (manager) he goes above and beyond with helping people. Very friendly and a good listener. John, one of the trainers, is full of knowledge and motivation. Before signing up for golds membership I told myself I won’t get a trainer due to already loosing 50lb (and having massive followers on Instagram for kettlebell workouts with weight loss program, I was pretty much settled in my comfort zone) but then came John who is full of enthusiasm, motivation and knowledge. It was nice to finally get someone who could push me for a change. While it's true that a personal trainer should have your best interest at heart, they cannot make you go to the gym. They are there to put the wheels in motion, support you, and help you reach your fitness goals. How often you go to the gym and the effort you put into your workouts is entirely up to you. When you sign up, you get a free 1 hr meeting with a trainer. Ask as many questions as possible on how to use some of the machines, what work outs are best to reach your goals, diets ect. They are there to help and guide you. The most important thing is to try and inspire people so they can be great in whatever they want to do. that’s exactly what staff at golds gym do. The only changes I would do to this gym is replace all shower heads in the showers. They are painful. Oh and maybe build a pool :D Just a thought :)Other than that, thank you Golds gym for all that y’all do! Love your motivation pictures on the walls and staff! More...

So many QUALITY machines. Honestly, I can hit every muscles group in 6 different ways. That's how stacked this gym is. It's a hidden gem, in my opinion. They have a smoothie bar too, which most new gyms don't bother with cause they're cheap. This Gold's is still spending the money to keep members happy. It's always clean and is pretty spacious. Staff is welcoming, I'm always greeted by name when I arrive. EDIT: "QUALITY" machines referenced above is a combination of new age "life fitness" and old school "body master" style machines. If you don't understand the benefit to both,...I can't help you. These machines are awesome. More...

I'm a self-diagnosed gym rat and gym snob. There have been times (especially while traveling for work) when I have had 3 different gym memberships. This particular Gold's in Lorton is probably one of the best in the state of VA. I love that they have added 2 turf areas for functional training and they added some deadlift platforms with bumper plates, keeping up with the fitness trends. But they also have what Gold's is famous for...every piece of cardio equipment you can imagine, loads of free weights, machines, and dumbbells, plus complimentary group fitness classes like body pump and yoga. One of the highlights of this location is that the members are very friendly and no one has an ego. People either keep to themselves listening to their music or politely talk to each other while they workout. I've been approached several times and had folks introduce themselves to me within my first couple of weeks working out here. The employees greet you by name at the front desk and are very responsive if you have a question or feedback. The gym is impeccably clean and the locker room does not smell at all. Either they clean it everyday from top to bottom or the members are very hygienic. If you go to this gym, I think you'll find it has everything you need and more. More...

The gym is small, but the community it tight. I'm greeted every time I walk in with a "Hello Leo, whachya working on today? " You can't fake genuine interest. I cannot emphasize this enough, THESE PEOPLE CARE. They are not just employees of some company. They are a community. On my way to work one day, and unaware my keys fell out of my pocket, a Good Samaritan found my keys. Attached to my keys is my golds gym membership card and on it my membership number. Hecalled Golds Gym on Sepulveda... my Golds. They explained the situation to Allysa, an amazing employee of my gym. She used the membership number to look me up, and recognized my name (this is what I mean about community). She called and left a message explaining how to get my keys back. If you have ever lost your keys before, panic can set in quick. Luckily for me, I never reached that point. Literally saved from that stress response. It's a simple act of kindness. But it's times like that and people like Allysa that reestablish your faith in humanity. Needless to say I highly recommend this Golds Gym on Sepulveda. If you are looking for encouragement and support you will find it there. Thank you Allysa and thank you Golds Gym Culver City! More...

I've only been a member to one gold's gym and that was the one in Arlington. Ever since I moved out of the area, I have not found any gym like it. In the 1 year I spent there I crossed paths with online fitness influencers, bodybuilding competitors, former athletes, and of course, great trainers :) The culture of a place is set by the people at the top and sprinkles down and it's easy to achieve goals when you're in an environment that supports you. I reached peak physical health while attending Arlington Gold's gym because of that very reason - the environment and culture made it easier for me to push myself. When you see everyone else around you being intentional about getting better, you don't want to be the odd one out! I've heard that Gold's gym can be intimidating because of the intensity. If you reframe that intimidation as an opportunity to see what excellence look like and model yourself after that, sky is the limit! More...

I was excited to find a new gym with my sister after having moved from temecula until I quickly realized we were struggling with our form on certain important exercises! So we decided to get a personal trainer. I trained with Sean for my welcome workout and remembered his friendly attitude and welcoming vibe so naturally I wanted him as our trainer. Having worked with Sean for over a month now, he's completely exceeded my expectations for a trainer. Not only does he have a genuine interest in helping people grow, he actually knows his stuff and has more than enough credentials to back it up, unlike most trainers. So if you want a trainer that truly cares about you, is highly knowledgeable and will make you feel like his most important trainee, then I highly recommend Sean!! I never expected to see this much progress in so little time and I'm so happy he believed in me more than I believed in myself! If it weren't for the amazing trainer im working with, id give this gym 3 stars for only having one squat rack, no olympic bar and 70 cardio machines that nobody uses. Facility is kept pretty clean though. More...
