Golds Bondi

Borderline Kunce
Well today I went and trained for the first time in not far off a year. had been thinking about getting back into the gym now I have my lfea bit more sorted and what with Golds opening in bondi I figured that was a good time to start.

Got to say this gym is a pretty big disappointment (i had signed up as a foundation member), I had been a member of Golds in Hollywood when I was living in LA and that was awesome, so my expectations might of been some what high. Unfortunately this place is nothing more than a glorified anytime or plus fitness, im surprised they even got a Gold's franchise. The space is pretty small and they have a 25m lap pool taking up probably half of the gym, which is a bit of a waste considering the ocean is about 50m away. there is pretty limited equipment, 1 of each of the basic machines,2 squat wracks, 1 bench, 4 treadmills, 2 bikes..you get the picture.

Know what you mean, load up the bar and give it a loud grunt and kunce wanna call an ambulance.
But if it's close to home and attracts hot chicks, it's all the motivation you need to get back into it

Youll be a sore kunce for the first two weeks
 
no. every argument under the sun why i cant cancel. told them about it being a disappointment and its nothing like what i would expect from golds. they claim it was never marketed or advertised as a bodybuilding/lifting gym and thats my fault for expecting it. despite the fact that it is the "sister club" of venice beach and all he advertising mentioned venice. but apparently thats only because they are both "by the sea"
