I recently started spending more time in this area so I figured I'd join a gym . Being an avid gym goer I wanted a gym that isn't a planet fitness type. So i decided to join Gold's. I have two options lagrange and fishkill. I thought thatd be a good thing just incase. I have quite a few complaints right away! Weights are never racked. And by racked I mean never in the right spot. There are 30lbs dumbells next to 90lb dumbells. And when its crowded.... there are a sea of dumbbells on the ground . It's not good when you have to spend 5 minutes looking through to find a matching dumbbell. It is dirty. With old equipment. Even the front door is dirty. ZERO GYM ETIQUETTE. *examples.... I was doing cable flys and 3 people walked right through where I was working out. Another time I was doing dumbell press and this guy decides itd be a great place to do dumbell curls right in front of me! Another time I go to a cable machine after I saw this guy leave and go across the gym to the other side. I was 1 set down and he comes over said I was using that. I couldn't believe it. Also a big issue is that people will do let's say a bench press and just leave the weights on there. Like come on man.
I'm not a negative person but this has to change . I do like that they have a raquetball court. And I heard the classes are cool. But that's all they are...
Read moreAmazing gym with a lovely basketball court. However, I’m very disappointed with the treatment I received from the blonde hair (short hair) lady (her name might be Miera) on 03/07/24 at 13:10 ET. She’s slightly skinny and old. After scanning my card, the lady stopped me to tell me that I owed them approximately $80 because I have not been paying them, when I have auto pay set up after opening my account back in November. The lady hold me there for about 15 mins before asking for my name and who am I, which should’ve been the first thing in order to prevent wasting any customer’s time. After I told her who I am, she started apologizing and saying that she was looking at the wrong person. Apologized is accepted for sure. However, I do feel racially discriminated by her act because that was not my first time. That lady is the same person that helped me set up my membership as well after my first visit of the gym, which I felt like I was being monitored by her wherever I go, since I started with a guest pass in order to have an idea of what the gym was like. The only ask I have is please respect and treat all your customers the same way. Also, please do your research before accusing anyone of doing something or not making payments in the past. That should be a basic principle of...
Read moreWARNING. I strongly recommend avoiding this gym. Don't be misled by the high ticket price, it doesn't make up for it in quality.
The Cost: They will try to squeeze as much money out of you by making canceling your account as difficult as possible, the upfront and monthly fee is absolutely overpriced as well as the annual fee.
The Facility: They never clean their windows around the track so there are always flies and stink bugs around.
The front desk staff is very rude and act as though any request made to them is a personal offense ( don't even TRY to ask to restart the movie despite being the only person in the room)
The music is louder than your earbuds and repeats because they only source it from one channel.
No one wipes off the equipment after use, but even if they wanted to, it is very difficult to find the spray bottles to actually disinfect.
All of the machines are pushed together so claustrophopically that you will get sprayed by the guy sweating next to you half of the time.
I've been going there for years and slowly but surely the basketball courts have been repurposed. I think they are down to half a cluttered court on a good day.
The ladies restroom is pretty nice when it's not under...
