I have been a member of World's Gym for the last three years. It was more of a by chance setup than anything, but regardless I am a member. When I first joined the gym, I had received my first six months free, if I purchased six. Well, they somehow ...

Cons: none

I have been a member of World Gym now for several years. I keep coming back for a couple reasons:
1)Cleanliness of the gym- they actually have people hired at my location...

Just like every other middle to upper-class joint in USA Y2K, Arnold's (DBA World Gym) caters to the tofu-eating, name brand-wearing, foreign car-driving yuppie geeks that have overtaken the land. For us punk-ass non-conformists out there who are looking...

Pros: excellent equipment, never very crowded
Cons: high pressure sales tactics

Almost a year ago I decided to join a gym. A friend of mine is a member of World Gym and gave me a two week pass. I figured what the heck, I didn't know much about any of the gyms in town.

When I went in to use my 2 week pass, they...

Pros: Large. Modern.  Offers classes.  Lots of untapped potential.
Cons: Poorly maintained and an unconcerned and unethical staff.  

This is only about the World Gym located at 1001 E. Colorado Blvd, in the city of Glendale, CA.  I cannot comment on other World Gym locations.  I joined the Glendale location on 7/26/07, signing an agreement which stipulated that ...

Pros: cheap, comfortable atmosphere, nice staff
Cons: could use a little "makeover"

I am reviewing the Foxboro MA World Gym because I have just read some experiences of other World Gym members in MA and am shocked b/c my World Gym is so totally different!
This particular gym is not about bells and whistles and is not frilly-there...

Pros: Close to work; don't have to wait to use a machine, generally.
Cons: Poor maintenance; not enough ab machines; bad service all around.

I've belonged to the World Gym downtown since 1995. For many years, it was a pleasant experience and I referred people there all the time to join. Now I am so disappointed in the club. The service has declined dramatically in the last few years. ...

Pros: I'm too disgusted at to really consider any "pros".
Cons: Very poor customer service/support with cancellations.

I was initially impressed by the friendliness of the staff. They give a very good first impression. A few months into my 1-year contract I was severely injured and following the procedure in my contract, I began what has become a nightmare process. It ...

Pros: 24 hour facility lots of equipment $25 fee childcare available
Cons: can be intimidating because there are lots of body builders there, not enough classes

I'll admit, I'm not much of a gym person. Excersize has always been something that I've had to remin ...

Pros: Nice facilites
Cons: None

The World Gym is a good health club facility that I have used. They have every type of training apparatus that you can ever want or need. They have the basics such as the exercise bikes, the treadmills, the rowing machines, free weights, and of course...

Pros: Great variety of classes & equipment; terrific customer service; workout consoles; great hours; clean; affordable
Cons: could use more classes, but that will come

I was burned by my first foray into the fitness gym world (and you can see my scathing review of 24 hour Fitness here on ePinions to prove it:

Pros: didn't see any
Cons: price, lack of equipment, pushy staff - take your pick

Be careful when attempting to join a World's Gym! This franchise is heavy into the sales aspect of personal fitness. Many World's won't even let members try the gym for free before joining (this was the case in Randolph, MA). Maybe they were trying to...

Cons: $150 deposit

I've read a lot of bad reviews of this gym and I would just like to say this will be a good review of World Gym. I am not a member yet but I have been on a trial at the gym for 2 weeks. My boyfriend is a serious bodybuilder who finds World Gym a home...

Pros: Above average equipment
Cons: the price

I joined World Gym about 6 months ago and I have been pretty pleased with what I have seen. Most of the new equipment they promised would come in, has come in. They have a wide range of strength training machines along with a good array of freeweights....
