What we say

Quintessential queer gym

This branch of Gold's, in the middle of the Castro, has the feel of a neighborhood gym, a friendly atmosphere in which guys (yes, its almost exclusively male) run into friends and spent time chatting between sets. The gym features a small basement parking lot, a prime location, but is somewhat limited by the small size of the two floors. At peak hours, there are lines not just for the treadmills and weight machines but for the gang showers as well. Members rave about the yoga classes, and the steam room has a reputation as one of the most cruisy in a very cruisy city.

Smaller than the SOMA branch but easier to get to

Posted: August 24, 2009 - Visited: August 2009

This two-floor gym is smaller than their Brannon Street location but a lot easier to get to (and for me, convenience is a key motivator). I'm told it's rather cruisy, though no one has ever hit on me! (Kidding.) One warning for guys who are shy: the showers are in one big open room, not private stalls.
