About Merritt Members Choosing Gold's Gym

To Merritt Members,

Hi, my name is Tim Wells and I am a member at South River Fitness. Personally, I believe this is the best gym to go to in the Annapolis and Edgewater area. It's nice, kept very clean and it's a family oriented business.

I was given this site by a few of my friends that I know from my health club. Also, by some of my friends that used to go to Gold's Health Club and members from Merritt.
My friends are concerned about Merritt members that are going to join with Gold's Gym in Edgewater because they are getting lied to. My friends that used to go gold's were lied to and are trapped into a long term contract that they just recently got out of. Even when the promises made, weren't kept.

Since Gold's first opened they have been lying to their members. First, let me say that South River Fitness doesn't have Les Mills, but there is body training systems which includes group power, group active, group centergy and group step.
I would just like to inform you about the truth, any group system like BTS or Body Training System or Les Mills takes up to 4 months to get up and running. There is NO WAY you can accomplish it in 30 days like Gold's has promised.

I have heard from many past members and current members that Gold's have made promises that were not kept, just to get them to sign up for a membership. I have seen people get lied to and sold snake oil.
I would strongly encourage you to go into the Gold's on West Street and ask if they have Les Mills. The answer will be no because the same owner who owns the Edgewater location owns the West Street Gold's, as well. Please be cautious, there were same promises about a pool and the process of it being put in has been going on for years. Good Luck in finding a new home and if you need any help or recommendations on an honest club, just email me. If body training systems sounds interesting to you, just go on the website. It's www.bodytrainingsystems.com and if you want to try some classes just come by South River Fitness.

Good Luck! -Tim
