Gold’s Gym Celebrates 50th Anniversary; Gold’s Gym Indonesia Won Two Awards!

September 1, 2015

On August 26 2015, Gold’s Gym celebrated 50 years as the gold standard of fitness at its Gold’s Gym Convention. An annual event, this year’s Convention – hosted in Dallas, TX, which is where its global headquarters is located – drew hundreds of franchise owners, gym managers, corporate leaders, fitness celebrities and vendors to celebrate the brand’s monumental 50th Anniversary. To top off the night, Gold’s Gym inducted Arnold Schwarzenegger into its esteemed Gold’s Gym Hall of Fame. Schwarzenegger helped Gold’s Gym put mainstream fitness on the map in the 1970s.
“This week, we celebrate 50 years as the world’s leading authority on health and fitness,” said Aaron Watkins, president of Gold’s Gym. “We were honored to celebrate this milestone with special guest Arnold Schwarzenegger, who is a key part of the heritage of our brand, and has helped catapult fitness into the mainstream.”

“When I first came to America, I went to Gold’s Gym before I even went to my first apartment. Gold’s Gym became my home, it was like a family to me,” said Arnold Schwarzenegger. “At the time, physical fitness wasn’t mainstream, but look at what we have accomplished in these 50 years, now everyone is working out. Remember that you all are a part of the fitness crusade that we started 50 years ago.”

In 1965, in a small concrete room in Venice Beach, Gold’s Gym opened its doors and launched a fitness revolution that would go on to bring exercise and healthy living to the forefront of American culture. Today, Gold’s Gym delivers life-changing results for millions of members, while changing perceptions of what it truly means to be strong throughout its 700 gyms across the globe.


On the same night, Francis Wanandi, the founder and CEO of Gold’s Gym Indonesia also was a part of the excitement, especially when he took home two awards, Best Marketing Program International (The Search for Gold's Gym Indonesia's Angels) and Best International Community Engagement Program. These awards prove that Gold’s Gym Indonesia is not just a mere franchise, but a legacy that will continue to carry and strengthen the mission of Gold’s Gym to change the lives of many people by continue to motivate and push you to get results!
We are part of the legacy, the legacy of strength!
