Travis Cheek is one of our amazing cycle instructors and mentors. Travis started his own weight-loss journey a few years ago and never looked back! He realized he was 80 pounds over his preferred weight limit, took responsibility and is now working to help transform our Gold’s Gym Simi Valley and Thousand Oaks members every day.

One loud clang of free weights hitting the floor in the gym is enough to scare most beginner lifters off. If it sounds intense, it sounds dangerous! Have no fear, though. A little knowledge about basic free weights is enough to get you started (safely).
Does the idea of working out in a group make you flashback to gym class in grade school? Whether the memories are good or not, it's time to dispel the myth that classes at the gym are like school gym class. Group Fitness and Exercise classes are more fun and more effective for reaching specific goals than gym in school ever was. Plus, you get to pick what class (or classes) you take!
