Golds gym is a great gym for challenging yourself, and you don't have to get scolded for actually trying to lift some heavy ass weights. They aren't going to stuff you with pizza that they won't let you earn like pf does. I'm grandfathered in at 10 bucks a month, I have memberships at rdv, golds, and la. Golds doesn't have towel service, but they do have inexpensive drinks and occasional pros that pass through too. They keep their machines up and have a great selection. I don't workout here as much as I used to, but that's bc I live next door to rdv now. That being said, I still keep my membership and make the trek to Golds, because I always get a good pump there and feel like I fit right in.

I've been a member for a short time and I can say I really like this gym. I've gone to almost all the classes and the instructors are awesome; and the equipment is pretty up to par. Unfortunately I do have to say I'm pretty disappointed with the stretching room. It smells so bad and when I asked for a clean towel to clean off a mat, 2 different staff members looked at me like I was a moron and said "um you're supposed to bring your own, we don't provide you with towels." IM NOT BRINGING MY OWN TOWEL TO CLEAN YOUR EQUIPMENT WHEN I KNOW YOU HAVE TO HAVE AT LEAST ONE OF THOSE LITTLE WHITE TOWELS THAT ARE ALL OVER THE REST OF THE FACILITY. Other then that my only wish is that they'd add a hot Yoga class.

Great gym. Took one star away cuz there are too many dumb rules like "no bags allowed on the gym floor." Besides the lame rules it's a good gym. Too bad they're rumored to close down soon :(

I just signed up and I love it. Very clean, a lot gear in top shape, gets a little packed during peak hours like after 6pm, INCREDIBLE staff! It's intimidating starting up alone, but I feel very good about my membership and looking forward to improving.

My advice to other newcomers: figure out your goals/routine, take the tour, and snoop around to see where everything is. They got a lot of options and it can be overwhelming when its busy!

To the management team: I can't mention enough how awesome your staff is! Thank you

I started going to this Gold's after I moved to Apopka about 3 months ago. I lived in the Dr. Phillips area previously, and attended the Gold's gym there. I was very worried that it would not be as good as the Dr. Phillips facility, but since then my worries have disappeared. Although the facility is not as big, they make excellent use of the space they have at the gym. The machine selection is very nice, and the layout is well thought out. From the staff, to the members of the gym, everyone is friendly, and it would be very difficult not to make new friends here. From the moment you walk through the door and are greeted by the staff, to the moment you are done working out and it's time to leave, you feel a positive vibe that helps you carry through your workouts. You may come in feeling tired, but you will leave pumped!

I am very happy with my decision to switch from LA Fitness to Golds Gym Altamonte. In comparison to LA Fitness: I save $30 per month, equipment qty, quality and variety is much better, locker room is actually air conditioned, the staff is MUCH friendlier, and they have a smoothie bar with reasonably priced drinks. I love the self check-in also, no more lines!! LA Fitness seemed to be just a money-making machine. I can tell that staff and mgmt at Gold's makes great fitness a priority, over profit. I was at LA Fitness for years. Never have I noticed them bring in any new equipment, and some of their equipment is rusting! Gold's keep their equipment up to date.

Great and very clean. The entire staff has always been incredibly friendly and helpful, never pushy (which is why I joined here instead of LA Fitness where they sales-pitched me to death).

It stays pretty busy all day, but you usually don't have to wait for equipment as there are multiples of most every machine (weight and cardio) and plenty of free-weights. They also have a cardio-cinema where they play a different movie each day of the week.

This gym offers a variety of classes: Les Mills' (e.g. BodyPump, BodyCombat), yoga, Zumba, spinning, etc. The class instructors are skilled and energetic.

My kids love going to the childcare. They have a large play-place, crafting, movies, toys, and even a separate area for tiny ones so they don't get trampled by the bigger kids. Occasionally they have special nights where they'll have face-painting or balloon animals/creations for the kids. That's always a big hit with my two boys. The girls that work in the childcare are kind and patient.

Highly recommended.

I started training with silence about 2 months ago and walked in with the attitude of hating the gym, not knowing where to start or even if my goals were attainable. I'll say that within the first month of personal training, my whole attitude turned around and my view on working out and dreading the gym changed completely. One of the great benefits of the personal training for me was that I had a leader to show me the way and to really think for me when it came to mapping out each session. Silence works with you and not only helps you work towards and achieving your initial goals, but adapts to the new ones you make for yourself as you progress. The training is so dynamic as well as interesting. I feel like I am always doing a circuit or routine that I've never done before and it takes the tediousness out of your workout. The results have been incredible physically, mentally, and even changed my diet to be much healthier than it had been. The only draw back would be that you have to prepare to buy all new clothes because the ones you have now will fall off you 2 months from your start date! Thanks silence!!

When LA Fitness bought Lifestyle, the whole dynamics of the gym experience changed for the worst. The personnel staff weren't friendly or engaged. It was as though they were frightened and the atmosphere was tense and things of an outward experience was changing on a whim, without notice. I started looking for another workout facility. I needed to come and workout and not be a part of a negative transition. One of the reasons I loved Gold's was the facility, the Manager Christina, who was friendly and informative and it was like everyone was caring, the place was clean and everyone seemed like they were engaged in making the workout experience positive and upbeat. I love walking into this facility, the smell, the cleanliness, the friendly staff and all the choices of workout options makes it fun, you never get bored, they have a great variety of workout selections to meet your ever changing needs and requirements to stay healthy and in shape. Words can't describe my gratitude in belonging to a facility that is consistent, upbeat, considerate, clean, diverse, and attentive, to the customers needs. I love going here and I highly recommend the facility to anyone who wants a great workout experience. I appreciate the staff and how they manage this facility.Again, Kudos to Christine, in hiring the right people, managing them effectively for a great customer, sustainable experience. These people feel accountable for the customer experience, you can tell in all they do, each and everyday.

I have been a member of Gold's Gym in Altamonte Springs for 3 years. I have been very happy with the cleanliness and service at this gym. The equipment is good, the Staff is friendly and I am happy to have found such a great place to work out!

I have been a member at Gold's Gym in Altamonte for one year, and I absolutely love it! The staff is always friendly; and the gym is spotless. The instructors are fantastic; and they really keep me motivated. I recently visited another location while out of town, and could not wait to get back to Altamonte. They plan to keep the Les Mills classes forever; and that is why I switched from another gym. I once worried about the 10-mile distance from my work in Lake Mary. I love the gym so much that the distance is no longer an issue. Gold's is conveniently located right off of I-4. The membership fee is reasonable too!

I really enjoy this gym. It is very well kept and clean and I never seem to have a problem needing to wait to use the equipment that I need. One of the employees there Jodi does a great job as well! Being a manager myself I know how hard it is to find star employees. She is hard working, attentive, friendly (she remembers who you are) and she always has a bright smile on her face whether it's 8 in the morning or 9 at night. Keep up the great work! :)

I love working out at Gold's in Altamonte. There is an abundance of equipment suitable for all my fitness needs. I love the cardio cinema, which makes endurance cardio workouts more exciting. It's good to have the distraction of a movie playing.

The gym is organized, clean and all the staff members are friendly and helpful.

I recently began working out with Silence, and he's the best trainer I've ever worked with. He developed a challenging program for me to help me reach my fitness goals. He motivates me with positive encouragement and is non-judgmental. His HIIT program combines strength and cardio and is the hardest workout I've ever done. I was having trouble doing one exercise in my circuit, and he got down on the floor and crawled next to me. He is an awesome trainer, a friendly presence in the gym (as are all the trainers who've greeted me at Gold's) and he really believes in me. I'm excited to continue working with him and reach my fitness goals.

I would highly recommend Gold's Gym Altamonte to my friends.

After LA Fitness bought out LifeStyle, there was no where to go for Les Mills classes. However, after Checking into Gold's gym, I found that they not only had Les Mills classes, with a Staff that is Overly friendly and eager to help with a no pressure sales team, they also had all of the Instructors that were from LifeStyle/LA Fitness. With people fleeing from the Rude Confines of LA Fitness, the Group Fitness Room was too small for the quickly growing customer base. The Gym realized this problem and not only Expanded the room with a major construction project, but also added additional classes as well to accommodate everyone. The atmosphere at Gold's gym makes me feel welcomed every time I am there, from the GM, Greeters at the Counter, Kids Room, Personal Trainers and the Best Group Fitness Instructors Ever.

I joined Gold's a couple months ago for the Group classes and was not disappointed! I big thank you to all the instructors out there - Denelle, Greg, Kerry, Rachelle, Russ, Suzie, Ken, Cheryl, Carrisa, Katie! You all have made a big difference in my life and I just wanted you to know that! I am starting to do some training with Denelle and I am looking forward to it! I have also made some new friends and that is a great thing too. So, get out of your comfort zone people and see what Gold's has to offer, you will be happy you did!
