Gold's Gym - Merrifield

Experiencia fantástica: The Gold's Gym in Merrifield is top notch! The staff are professional and personal (they greet me by name whenever I arrive.) The facilities are always clean and organized. What I like most about this particular gym is the support one gets from the staff in achieving your goals. It's what sets it apart from other health facilities (i.e. Xsport fitness).

Experiencia fantástica: If you are looking for a great facility with experienced fitness instructors without the super expensive membership, this is the place for you. The membership rates are reasonable and the staff is super nice. I love the cardio theater because they always show good movies that help me zone out while running. I've been a golds member for over 10 years and the Merrifield location is one of the best ones I have come across.

Experiencia fantástica: I like to come here to train with Mark Wolf, a talented and hard working trainer who is an asset to the organization of Gold's Gym. I'm a big fan of the cardio cinema--they have great movie choices! There are constant improvements being made to the equipment and facilities. The locker rooms are the nicest I've seen in this area, and the clientele is unassuming, friendly, and nice. You can tell that people are happy to come to this gym. If you live close by, join this gym, and sign up for sessions with Mark Wolf. You will see immediate results!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been working for Golds at Merrifield as a personal trainer for the past 3 years (first part time, now full time) and its home to me. I have really enjoyed training all of my clients, meeting new members, and making connections with all of the staff. Whenever I walk through those doors, I feel happy & wouldn't want to be anywhere else:)

Experiencia fantástica: As an Fitness Consultant there for almost a month, I can say that the positive reviews are true. This is a great place to train with friends, which is why I want to hook members up that refer their friends to our gym. My first hook up is a give away gift certificate for one at The Silver Diner. The way to win that is by having your name enter in a drawing when you refer a friend. See me at the gym to know how to win a gift certificate for one from The Silver Diner.

Experiencia fantástica: I joined Gold's Gym in November 2013 after the Curves franchise I was a member of closed for business. I checked out a couple of other gyms, but knew there was something different about this location upon entering the door. I felt an energy and a general solid interest on the part of the staff (like Meghan and Carlos) to ensure I felt welcome and that they were there to help me. I signed up the next day. After doing essentially the same Curves workout for over 5 years, I'm enjoying the variety of workout experiences offered here, including the different machines and the classes. I've had the chance to take Bodyflow classes from 3 different instructors, and while each was different, all were equally good. I am also tapping into the personal trainer opportunity and have really enjoyed working with Phillip. He has taken the time to understand what I hope to accomplish and work with me. While I eventually hope to be able to work independent of any trainer, I fully appreciate the benefit of Phillip and the support and direction that he provides me at this beginning stage of my efforts. If not for him, I would give up too soon and not realize the full workout/weight training benefit. He's fair and he pushes me to do the very best that I can. Thanks to all at Merrifield Gold Gym, to those I've interacted with and those yet to come!!

Experiencia fantástica: I joined the Merrifield Gold's Gym under the SIlver Sneakers program provided by my supplemental healthcare program. Gold's welcomed me with no hesitation and has continued to treat me as a valued member even though my membership is free. Of course, they hoped that I would contract for additional services and I have. I see a personal trainer twice a week and in my two years of regular attendance, I have gained strength and confidence. My two trainers, first Josh and now Luke have challenged me to stretch myself in ways that I know I would not have done on my own. The gym is well-maintained, clean, and friendly. From conversations with my friends, I believe the trainer fees are well within local standards and for me are now part of my routine budget.

Experiencia fantástica: By far the best Gold's I've been to. The staff is great and really supportive. My PT is Randal and the dude is just beast. He's a great teacher, exceedingly patient and knowledgeable. Can't say enough good stuff about this place.

Experiencia fantástica: Great gym, very helpful and friendly staff; I would highly recommend personal training expert Luke Hayes. I have been involved in fitness for over 20 years and never had a personal trainer. I decided to try a session one day and it was the best decision I made. Luke’s knowledge and motivation has helped me reach the fitness goals I previously set and now I continue to set new goals I am confident I will achieve through his help. I would highly recommend Luke for anyone out there wanting to improve themselves and achieve results. Whether you are new to exercise or have years of experience Luke will make you a success in the gym.

Experiencia fantástica: A big High Five to the staff here. Best gym in the area. I have been a member for many years. Excellent equipment, friendly staff, clean locker room, easy parking.

Experiencia fantástica: Was really good

Experiencia fantástica: Great staff

Experiencia fantástica: Overall good gym, staff kinda keeps to themselves but always greets and makes sure to acknowledge you which I think is kind. The womens locker room goes into a small room which is super nice to have a little privacy away from the "testosterone section " aka the free weights LOL where I usually stretch or do my core workouts and I absolutely loveeee that. It's a gym, you come here to pick stuff up and put stuff down. Can't complain. Cleaning staff work hard, I consistently see them in/out the locker room. Would recommend this gym to others. - IG @SpicyAivy

Experiencia fantástica: There is one "lady's" gym room which has a few pieces of equipment. There is also one room with space for your workout that does not involve gym equipment. There is a room for classes and a cycle room. And the lighting is much better than the South Arlington location.

Experiencia fantástica: Love this gym! Good equipment, great classes and instructors, friendly and helpful staff

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing gym to belong to. The staff treat you like family and everyone knows everyone pretty much. The gym does not get packed either like the next door XSport gym where you have to wait in line for equipment that people are just sitting on and texting on their phones…. I had left Gold’s previously because I moved from work but now I’m back. I don’t understand why people have such a hard time cancelling, you literally just send an email or talk with a manager and you’re good to go. I’m glad I’m back though and won’t be going anywhere for a very long time!

Experiencia fantástica: I see all these negative reviews, i wanna say i been coming here for past a year, its awesome gym. Awesome staff. Friendly and some nice members too. Well! shut up your mouz! You come here to work out or watch for negative things to write. Its a freaking gym, every single hour 20-30 people come in and go out. Do you even lift? Its fabulous gym!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been working out here for over a year. This is my favorite Golds in the Northern Virginia area. There are three squat racks, one deadlifting platform, and quite a few benches and dumbbells. It’s a good, no frills gym for people who just want to get a workout in. It gets crowded like any commercial gym, but is not bad at all in the morning and there is plenty of parking. Special shout out to the morning staff - Nikhil, Luis, Niko and others.

Experiencia fantástica: Great gym with friendly staff and clean facilities. They have plenty of equipment, so it’s never a long wait to use any of the benches or machines. All of the equipment and machines are very well-maintained! Highly recommended!

Experiencia positiva: I visited for membership information. The young woman at the customer service desk was friendly and wanted to be helpful but had limited knowledge of programs for seniors. One special offered now in 18 months for a single payment if less than $600

Experiencia fantástica: Great staff. Good classes and equipment

Experiencia fantástica: Positive: Professionalism Mr. Hill was very professional and efficient with welcoming us to the gym during COVID times. The facility was clean, well maintained and didn't have a lot of people which made me feel safe enough to work out comfortably. Great place with great selection to work out whatever you need.

Experiencia fantástica: Great staff! Friendly and personal. The trainers don’t act snooty which was my experience in a few other local gyms. The equipment is up to date too! They offer a variety of classes that come with most memberships and the classes are great- many varieties and effective. You can’t beat this deal anywhere else in town.

Experiencia fantástica: Out of the 4-5 gold's I use, this has to be one of my favorites...it's big! Lots of free weights, treadmills, class rooms...locker room (at least the men's) is large and pretty clean.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been attending this gym for the past three years, and I have one word to describe the place HOME. Everybody here is so helpful, kind, friendly and makes all members feel welcomed. The STAFF here is amazing, starting with Mrs. Linda in the Kids Club, all the Personal Trainers including Luke, Philip, Sofia and Chris, all the Front Desk Staff starting with Shawn, Patrick, Hind the list goes on.The Fitness Consultants are helpful as well Carlos and the tall good looking guy who works a lot, the instructors do a great job teaching the classes. If you are a NOVA resident I highly recommend you give this gym a chance and try it out, you will not regret it.

Experiencia fantástica: I was brand new to the fitness world, I had no idea where to start or where to end, but I had a vision to lose weight and to finally bench 315lbs. I came to Merrifield Golds Gym and with Remy's help, the GM, I was able to achieve my vision and finally feel comfortable about myself. I highly recommend to anyone to come to Merrifield's Gold Gym, they're not only here to help you but they're also your family.

Experiencia fantástica: The gym staff is helpful and eager to help you, if needed. Plus, if you are into cardio, you should definitely try out the cardio room. Watch the movie/show being played and you will not even realize how much you've worked out. That was definitely a big contributor towards my rating. All in all, I liked my experience and will most likely return

Experiencia fantástica: Ive been training at this location for about 6 months now. The entire staff is helpful and very friendly. The gym has a variety of equipment and machines to help you reach your goals. I am definitely a satisfied member.

Experiencia fantástica: I LOVE this gym, been going here for almost 3 years. I enrolled in the Gold's Gym Fit Challenge last February, and it has been one of the best things I've ever committed to. I've dropped 35+ pounds, put on some muscle, and feel great about myself. The regulars are really friendly people -- they're there to do their work, but they will gradually warm up once they see you around for long enough. I owe a lot to both the regulars AND the trainers there -- Philip and Sofia have both been really open about fitness and nutrition advice, as is the shop manager, Remy. My Dad used to tell me, "Never ask a fat guy how to get skinny." With these folks, you are definitely in good hands because you can see they really live fit, and the results show. Best times to go are, of course, when everyone else is at work, however even during rush hour there are plenty of machines. You'll have to wait for a bench or a squat rack on occasion if your target time is 7am or 5pm, but most folks don't mind giving a spot or letting you work in. Everybody plays nice in the sandbox. My wife drags me to spin class on Saturdays...I hate it because I'm not a cardio guy and not particularly athletic, but it's been a major help getting me to slim down. This gym has benefits over XSport: The equipment for the price is pretty equivalent, but this place is nowhere near as crowded during rush hour as XSport is. It's a zoo over there, plus parking is a nightmare in that garage. Overall I've had a pretty good experience here.

Experiencia fantástica: I've been going to this location for several years and haven't ever thought twice about switching gyms. Everything about this gym is near impeccable. The equipment, the facility itself, and most importantly the STAFF. Everyone who works here, especially the front desk staff, is so helpful. I've never felt more surrounded by good vibes and a positive atmosphere.
