I wouldn’t advise going here unless you are part of the local in-crowd. People here«workout» in mobs(groups of three and four sometimes) and will monopolize a machine for as much as an hour, or even more perhaps. They hang around and loiter, doing their«workout» as inefficiently as possible. If you try to politely say anything, you risk being yelled at or subjected to some such other intimidation tactic. That aside, general etiquette is quite low. I have literally never witnessed someone re-rack a weight. They are actually in piles on the floor that you have to dig through. This review really only applies to the weight lifting area. If all you want to do is cardio, this gym should not be a problem for you.

It’s a clean place with newer machines. The cinema cardio room is great and I really love to use the rowing machine. It hasn’t been too over crowded that I’ve felt overwhelmed. As a woman who is used to primarily going to all ladies barre class boutiques, this place feels massive with its high warehouse style ceiling. I’ll be content attending this gym while I stay in the area for the next year. You get a good variety of machines for what you pay for, if you are someone who knows what you want to do and want to use the machines. They have les mills classes too. I haven’t attended them at this facility yet. Though I have taken Les mills in the past at other gyms.

Taking away two stars here for the following reasons: For one, the enrollment fee was more than it is at most places. It’s $ 40/month after that, which is pretty pricey. I had L.A. Fitness for $ 9/month after having been with them for more than three years, but circumstances forced me to choose a gym here in Brownsville. Also took away another star because the basketball gym floor’s always dusty or dirty in the evenings. The basketball court here is what really sealed the deal. But after those yoga or Zumba classes in the afternoon, no one usually wipes or mopes the floor until 10 or 11 p.m.(Sometimes it’s closer to midnight, once they’re about to close.) A couple of the yoga mats that were used during these classes go back up on the wall underneath the basket, with sweat stains, and it stinks. Also, if the nets rip, good luck having them replace it promptly. Really, it costs $ 2 – 3 to replace it. If you’re having members pay $ 40/month, you could certainly afford to keep things in tip-top shape. Lots of soccer fans in the area. Sometimes they’ll go onto the basketball court, set up cones and starting blasting away shots. Really annoying when you have to duck your head to avoid getting hit. Other than that, the facility’s really good. Lots of the equipment is up-to-date. Hardly ever gets full, so you never have to wait in line behind for anything. Wi-fi’s pretty good, too, if you’re looking to stream music.(I forget if I was able to stream YouTube, though. Doubt it.) They also have a separate theater inside, decked out with treadmills and bikes, showing a different movie each day of the week on the big screen. Sweet feature. Enjoyed the pool. Showers are good. Locker rooms are kept clean. Pretty spacious. Clean your gym floors, make sure the rims have nets and ease up on the $ 40/month, and you’ll get 5 stars from me, Gold’s.(Oh, and make sure there’s a «no soccer on the basketball court» policy instituted, please.)

Just joined :) Nice and clean, pool isn’t big enough for laps but it works for aerobics. They have these awesome incline machines I am in love with right now but the gym in general is good!!! Oh and they have a daycare, smoothie bar and a cardio cinema room.
