Gold's Gym LondonSerioustraining.Since 1965.

Born in Venice Beach.
Joe Gold opened the first Gold's Gym in Venice, California, in 1965. Arnold Schwarzenegger trained there in the 1970s, Pumping Iron put it on film in 1977, and bodybuilders still call it the Mecca.
There are now more than 600 Gold's Gyms around the world. Four are in London.
Our story
One is in a cinema.
Gold's Gym Harrow trains inside the Granada on Sheepcote Road, which opened in 1937. The domed ceiling, the chandelier and the cinema's Wurlitzer organ are all still there.

How do I join Gold's Gym?
Pick your club, then call or email the club or walk in. The membership team goes through the options with you and sets you up. Members must be 18 or over.
Is there a joining fee?
No. There's no joining fee at any Gold's Gym UK club. See prices for what each plan costs.
Can I freeze my membership?
Yes, for any reason. A freeze lasts from 1 to 3 months and costs a £25 admin fee. Give one full payment's notice and email your club to set it up.
How do I cancel my membership?
Once your minimum term is done, give 30 days' written notice (one full payment) from your next Direct Debit date.
Inside the minimum term, we can only cancel for one of these reasons, with proof:
- Illness or injury that stops you exercising for 3 months or more. You need a note or letter from a doctor or other qualified medical professional that says so.
- Moving away to a permanent address more than 8 miles from all of our clubs, shown on a utility bill dated in the last 3 months. UK addresses only, and only after your first 3 months. University accommodation doesn't count, and nor does a visa that ends inside the minimum term. If you move within 8 miles of another Gold's club, your membership transfers there instead.
- Redundancy or other loss of livelihood, with proof from your employer. Resigning, or a work contract that ends inside the minimum term, doesn't count.
- Pregnancy, with written proof.
In every case we need 30 days' written notice from your next Direct Debit date.
What's the difference between a fitness instructor and a personal trainer?
Your fitness instructor builds your programme when you join and updates it whenever you're ready for a change. We suggest every 3 to 4 months. A personal trainer works with you one to one in every session, watching your technique and adjusting the plan as you go.
Start at Gold's.
Call or email the club you want to join. The membership team goes through the plans and today's prices, and books a time for you to come in.
Bring photo ID and proof of address. No joining fee.
