Gold's Gym Washington, Woodinville

Great gym and staff. Definitely thinking about continuing with them after the Groupon expires

Horrible hygiene, oppressive atmosphere and discouraging management. Really gross. If you present your Groupon, they will sit you down and immediately go to work on you, alternating between telling you they think you will fail at meeting your health goals because you are too fat or too old or too injured, and then trying to get you to buy extended memberships to prove you're serious. Disgusting.

They are a tester for Precore equipment so the get the latest and greatest all the time. When I went in (mid April 2017) the equipment was less than a month old. They have a great facility and you can tell that they put money into it. For what you're getting the fees are quite reasonable ($40/mo for a year commitment or $45/mo for month to month, plus tax). I also signed up for 12 personal training sessions (between $59 and $76/session depending on how many sessions you get). They didn't coerce me to, I had planned to do so already. Of course they had no qualms. They work with you on a payment plan so you aren't paying the whole thing up front. For equipment and classes, they've got everything to do a full body circuit workout, there's this weird giant red thing that looks like a jungle gym (but I'm assured you can get a fantastic workout with it), they've got spin classes, a theater with various machines (movies are randomly sent from Redbox everyday), their pool/sauna area includes a good sized lap pool, hot tub, kid pool, dry sauna, and wet sauna. The pool area is closed this week (4/10/17-4/17/17) because they're repainting so I didn't get to check that out. The locker rooms are state of the art with a lounge area, personal showers, decent sized lockers (bring your own lock), and a demoisterizer thing for your swimwear (stick them in and I thing it spins them dry). Plenty of supplements and protein selections. Overall great experience, definitely would recommend.

Instructors are so nice, and they have decent training machine. I like it.
