Gold's Gym Calgary Douglasdale

Fantastic experience: I got the opportunity to have Samantha as my personal trainer and she has been amazing! She is very friendly and I always thoroughly enjoy our workouts. She always makes sure to provide a variety of different workouts, machines, etc. During appointments with her, she always puts 100% of her focus on her clients. She made me a great workout plan that I use all the time! I would recommend her to friends in a heartbeat!

Fantastic experience: Had a great assessment with Claudia, she’s really knowledgeable! Went because I’m pregnant and needed help with workouts that were safe, she was super kind and helpful ☺️

Fantastic experience: Positive: Quality I had my first 1-1 session with Melissa and I thought it was great! We did a full body workout and by the end of the session I burned around 800 calories. She definitely pushed me harder than I would've working out on my own. Would recommend her as a personal trainer if you want an intense workout!

Fantastic experience: I have been to many gyms and gotta say, I really enjoy Golds! Great people, great locations and great hours. Diego was great signing me up and staff have been super friendly. I’d definitely recommend this gym!

Fantastic experience: I have such a high level of respect for Golds Gym and the ownership and staff here. Not only is it a very positive and uplifting environment but the proof of fighting and caring for each guest that walks into their gym is like nothing I've encountered before especially in times where our mental health is so very important. You will forever have my business.

Fantastic experience: I train with Melissa and have seen amazing changes in my physique after only a month with her. I already feel stronger and more confident with better balance and endurance. Their equipment also deserves some attention as it is newer and good quality. Claudia also provides a complimentary fitness assessment so you know what aspects o f your body specifically need improvement.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism Just a big THANK YOU for my personal trainer Melissa Morrison. I have 15 years of experience and of course I thought I know everything ! So wrong ! Hardest workouts in my life, unbelievable progress just after a month ! Definitely you know you train with a PRO. Truly recommend her for not only beginners but more advanced gym goers too.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism , Quality Had a wonderful tour. The gym seemed so much bigger after walking through. Good variety of equipment. They have different group fit classes. I'm excited to workout here!

Fantastic experience: I train with Melissa Morrison at Douglasdale. She is amazing and motivates me to do my best in each training session! Not only is she clearly skilled on perfecting form and all aspects of movement and building fitness but has a encouraging and upbeat attitude. She really installs hope in me that I can reach my fitness goals! I want to thank Golds for having high quality trainers like Melissa! Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Love the facility and all the staff are wonderful and encouraging. I especially love the classes offered, and enjoy going to several each week.

Fantastic experience: Claudia and the team at Gold’s are fantastic! I thought I would feel out of place in a gym with so many body builders but not at all - constantly inspired by everyone!

Fantastic experience: We got a free assessment with Claudia, who was excellent and knowledgeable. She helped my friend and me with our squat form and gave us beneficial information. She is very energetic and positive! Make sure you ask for her.

Fantastic experience: Staff is very friendly and always helpful. The atmosphere of the gym is very good, good music but not deafening. Claudia was very helpful with her fitness assessment and gave very good insight on where to improve.

Fantastic experience: One of the best gym and super helpfull staff in south calgary , just joined the gym and realized the diffrence between gold’s gym and goodlife. Trainers are really nice and helpfull but the personal training manager name Claudia Rozendal is one of the best and nice person i ever met in any gym in my life . She gave me her long time and measured my body measurements and guided me how i can improve my self in evert part of excercises. She helped me and guided me about how to set my goals . I am so thankfull of her for everything and her time. I personaly recommend that gym especially to visit Claudia Rozendal for best results . Thanks alot i am 100% satisfied and greatfull of you :)

Fantastic experience: Awesome Gym, I usually workout at night time. Sophia is super polite and helpful. She always keep weights and equipments arranged and Clean. Easy to find everything. Love the environment.

Fantastic experience: Claudia was amazing, provided very helpful tips, showed me how to activate muscles I couldn’t before, Mobility tips, very friendly and engaging overall 10/10

Fantastic experience: Great location with great staff! Never seen equipment out of service. Only downside is it gets REALLY busy during the usual busy hours

Fantastic experience: Great gym and people. I always walk out of there feeling better than before walking in. Just wish the hot tub was working

Fantastic experience: This review is WAY overdue as I've been a Calgary Gold's Gym customer on and off for nearly 20 years - same owners throughout. Recently, I've experienced symptoms of menopause (low testosterone/depression/anxiety/you name it) and i was forced to level up. So I signed up with Gold's Douglasdale but this time lifting heavy weights and practising movement patterns on the bench press, deadlift and squat - exercises i never did before. My research indicated that heavy compound lifting would provide me the hormone boost i was looking for. Needless to say its been 9 months now and the community they have at this location is bar none like no other. The staff at the front desk always greet me with a huge smile and provide a sisterhood like no other. The training manager Claudia is impressive, kind and encouraging. The owners are super cool. The equipment and tanning beds are A+. The boxing instructor Deyra is empathetic and makes you feel very welcomed in her classes. Gita's yoga classes after a heavy lift session is much appreciated and her sense of humour is also appreciated. Jodi is friendly and her positive energy is contagious. I can go on and on. If you are a gal experiencing menopause symptoms this health club IS the place to be. Coming here has proven to be a better system for aging. This place IS the fountain of youth.

Fantastic experience: Claudia did an amazing and helpful job in my assessment today! I highly recommend her for her knowledge and friendly personality.

Fantastic experience: UPDATE - I have now been training with Deyra and WOW... She works me HARD....and the feeling of accomplishment is full throttle after every session. I want to get healthy, and FUCTIONAL as I get older, and Deyra is the best for this. Her support before, during and after our workouts is fatastic. Im amazed at how strong my body already was, and I know with Deyra I will get to my goals, and continue this healthy lifestyle by joinging one of Deyra's classes! I even tried BOXING!!! So much fun!!!! Everyone at Golds Gym in Douglasdale are amazing - Special shout out to Claudia for always stopping to talk to me and ask how things are going! I started going to GOLDS in Douglasdale with a few friends late last year. I was blown away by the open atmosphere, and GREAT SERVICE!! THis is NOT a gym full of "meat heads". Everyone that work there is so nice, and accomodating. My experience was so good that I decided to get a trainer and REALLY get healthy. My trainer is Luke, and he is fantastic. He really listens to me, and what i am looking to do. Even when i told him my weight was dropping due to mental Illness, he was very concerned for me, and adjusted my workouts accordingly. He gives me great advice for eating healthy, and we just have a GREAT TIME together. I never pictured myself laughing during Leg Day... but there I am, having the best time! Even the owner is super frienly and recognizes me when Im there. When I go by myself, all the trainers are more than willing to help me with my form, and make sure Im doing the moves correctly. Joining GOLDS was the BEST decision I have made in the last 5 years!!! I cant say enough great things about Luke and GOLDS Gym in Douglasdale. IF you are on the fence about getting healthy... WAIT NO MORE and go RIGHT NOW!!!!!

Fantastic experience: With all my heart I love this gym. The staff are incredible, facility is consistently clean, and my daughter enjoys the daycare. The owner Kelly is very friendly and approachable, I’m grateful for how much this gym has benefited my life, especially as a mother. Only gym I’ve been to where I can use the daycare everyday without paying extra fees.

Fantastic experience: They had the best merch, best people, and not gonna lie the boxing gym was amazing, Diana although she was a bit stubborn in a good way, she got me the things I needed and has an amazing personality and will definitely make you want to come here again.

Fantastic experience: Great classes and many workout options to choose from. Free weights, machines, ellipticals, treadmills, stair steppers, spin classes and a boxing room as well as a gym. Upstairs there are tanning beds and they offer childcare while you work out. Very clean environment and motivating instructors. Soon adding a hot tub and endless pool. Spacious change room/showers and sauna. Some new classes added in April. Tabata and more spin classes.

Fantastic experience: Zack has been a great help, actually cares and is dialed into his job. Wish more were like him. He carries this 5*

Fantastic experience: love the gym. zack’s at the front every night, love his energy. he’s always there to help out with any questions i have about machines! thanks for all the help zack!

Fantastic experience: Having a fabulous time working out at Gold‘s gym Douglasdale but mainly because of certain great customer service Frontline staff like Zack we really appreciate clean towels great music and always advice on weight training it’s been a real pleasure to work out here sincerelybrigitesbengals.com

Fantastic experience: I started 5 months ago training with Samuel and I have to say that i have been so impressed with his training his manners and how he can teach the proper technique. I wasn’t doing so good with my health and I was very down on myself, and when I met Samuel my whole life changed now I’m healthy, eating right and feeling really good about myself. Samuel saved my life and showed me that I can achieve anything I put my mind to. If you need help Samuel is the person that will always be there to teach and to make you feel good. God bless you Samuel thank you for giving me back my life

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym, love Golds. Way better than Goodlife. So glad I switched. The owner Kelly is the only gym owner around who understands what people want in a gym! The staff are friendly and the facility is clean. Top notch all the way around.

Fantastic experience: Staff here are always welcoming and the gym is always clean and organized. Claudia helped me out with setting up my golds gym app and she also set up my body composition metrics on the app. :D

Fantastic experience: Claudia was very helpful and kind! She really showed me where I could improve and had a smile the whole time. Super knowledgeable staff and always the cleanest gym in the city. I drive all the way from chestermere just to come here.

Fantastic experience: Gold’s gym was able to respectfully follow-up with my concerns and I am happy to be heard by the management team. Claudia worked with me to ensure whatever questions I had were answered within a timely manner! Good job at following up Gold’s Gym and for taking my concerns seriously! Please read contracts carefully when signing anything!

Fantastic experience: I have trained with Melissa Morrison since November 2021, and I always look forward to coming to the gym to see her every week! She absolutely kills me (but in the best way possible). I work 2 jobs and am on my feet all day, and even when I’m tired I enjoy every moment training. Melissa pushes me and encourages me constantly! I have seen so much growth in myself since training at Golds & with Melissa and I’ve never been happier. Training with Melissa is the best part of my week & she’s super understanding and kind, an absolute sweetheart! I also love the variety of equipment that there is, and it helps me because I personally prefer machines over free weights

Fantastic experience: Kelly is the best. I had a problem and he helped me out no hesitation. Amazing facility and great classes to attend. You will not regret it being a member here.

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym, atmosphere is crazy and it makes you want to be better and somehow pushes you to work harder. ONLY negative part (which is no big deal ) is how busy it gets from 4-7pm. This isn’t like your goodlife 4-7. its 3x busier

Fantastic experience: Bought a membership in September and within a few days contracted the delta variant of COVID. It ravaged my body and i now am dealing with long term effects. Went in today to see if I could cancel my membership. I explained my situation to the front end staff. Kelly must have overheard the conversation and came on over. He was very empathetic and advised his staff to cancel my membership. No fees...no hesitation..no hassle.Thank you for your compassion Kelly and staff. You have no idea how heart warming that is. I will definitely recommend Gold's gym and share my experience there.

Fantastic experience: I would like to appreciate Melissa & Gold Gym for the outstanding fitness experience you offered! Melissa is an accountable personal trainer who truly considers the client's needs, goals, physical capacity and developement. She's able to generate customized fitness plan based on the client's body goals, activities and lifestyle with significant fitness knowledge and experiences. Melissa is not only training me physically, but also delivering education during the session in Kinesiology & Nutrition such as muscle growth, diet, forms, therefore, I am able to understand the fitness plan and proactively prompt to achieve the ultimate goal. Melissa is also very patient to the client, especially for fitness beginners like me who does not know much fitness terminology. Beyond that, she always gives me power and confidence with incentive words and timely feedback, which deeply motivates me to acheive the goal of each session as well as the future aim.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Joshua was very personable and extremely friendly when i came to tour the facility., I couldn’t have asked for a better first impression. I am looking forward to working out here!

Fantastic experience: Love the gym, the environment and great staff. People are chill and I have never felt intimidated working out. Would recommend this place to anyone looking to get into shape.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Really enjoyed the tour. The facility is awesome. Lots of equipment for all types of workouts. Josh, my tour guide was amazing. I am excited to start working out. Very open gym. Plenty of rack to do barbell Exercise. No waiting on equipment. This location have a boxing ring, a pool, etc.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Josh was very professional…gave us a tour of the facility and explained equipment locations, side rooms and overall gym in detail. Very pleasurable experience and very easy to sign up. I would recommend seeing Josh when getting your membership.

Fantastic experience: Claudia was amazing to talk with. She is so personable and cheerful she makes seeing all your bad points in a functional assessment make you feel great because she truly knows what she’s talking about. So how can you go wrong with someone who helps make you feel great about you from the start. Take it from this Doc’s point of view, she’s definitely chiropractic par for the course. There is way more to working out then just getting toned or pumped up. So go see Claudia wether you’re a beginner, novice or pro. Having someone like her in your tool box is a great addition. So don’t just be fit, be functionally fit and crush those workouts! Whoop whoop! Thanks Claudia you rock!

Fantastic experience: Josh and DIego were amazing to me here. I am from California, here visiting and even though they knew I would not be able to become a member, they still went out of their way to tour me on the gym and allow me to try out their facility. I travel all over USA and Canada for work, so it's taken me to hundreds of gyms of all kinds. This gym was the most organized, cleanest, safest, I've ever been to. My only wish is that it was close to me in California. I recommend this gym with 6 stars out of 5. Also, no broken equipment, everything seemed to be running at 100%.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Diego was very professional, and took his time to explain the membership process. He genuinely had my best interest in mind and I’m happy to be a Golds gym member.

Fantastic experience: This Gym is amazing. It’s great and all of the employees are very nice the over all atmosphere is great every one is kind and helpful when you are working out. The Equipment it amazing along the new hot tubs that are getting added.

Fantastic experience: Joined a few days ago and I have nothing but positive to say about all the staff I have dealt with, the desk staff are extremely patient and helpful, answering all my questions with kindness and a great attitude. A refreshing change from past experiences with some Gym environments in general. There was no pressure just lots of support. I hope the Covid changing protocols won't affect access to the Gym and all the mental and physical benefits that support us all right now !!

Fantastic experience: So far love it! all the equipments are new... Covid safety protocols are in best practice.

Fantastic experience: Been a part of a lot of different gym brands in both Ontario and Alberta, either as a member or as a trial. Gold's is definitely up there. 365 days, 24/7. Those are magic words to a dedicated gym participant. It's pricey but it's worth it. This location specifically is fantastic. Can't really think of anything negative to say. Genuinely recommend this over any other gym, hands down. Grind on!

Fantastic experience: Hands down best gym I have ever been to. Best equipment, Best covid regulations, and best atmosphere. Thank you guys for everything! I hope I speak for a lot of people, the way you have shown support for us makes me know when push comes to shove we will all support you back! I refuse to go to any other gym at this point. Also had a fitness assessment with Claudia! She is very intelligent and helpful. Trained me with correcting form and some corrective action for my shifted pelvis. Honestly very knowledgeable and very enthusiastic about her job! The hour went by too fast! Thank you!

Fantastic experience: My experience at golds gym has been nothing but professional quality and good communication from staff. Especially Veronica and Kelly who are the owners, they play an integral role in every persons ability to be healthier and to be more motivated. These two Owners are always making sure that everyone is treated like family. Veronica is straight forward honest person she will tell you the truth and she will make sure that you will succeed in doing what you need to do to get healthier and that goes the same for Kelly he is always saying HI always making sure that people are taking care of it is truly like a family there. When you sign up it’s a family there’s no worry of having to be intimidated by others it truly is a gym that cares for its members. Full disclosure I get nothing out of this nor am I getting paid for this this is my own opinion based on what I have experienced at golds gym Calgary. The staff at Gold’s Especially at Douglasdale are top notch professionals If you’re looking for a gym membership I will consider golds gym

Fantastic experience: If your looking for the coolest looking, best equipment in the industry. What I would call the WOW factor, you need to see Golds in Douglas Dale. This will change the way you workout.
