Gold's Gym filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on Monday. The gym chain had temporarily closed locations during the coronavirus pandemic. It later announced it would close 30 company-owned locations for good.

"We want to be 100 percent clear that Gold's Gym is not going out of business," President and CEO Adam Zeitsiff said in a press release. "The brand is strong, and we'll continue to innovate and grow our digital business, our licensing program and our global footprint as we focus on serving our millions of members across the world.

The company referred to difficulties brought on by the coronavirus pandemic and said it hoped to reemerge from bankruptcy proceedings by August 1.

Same here. The last Gold’s I’ve seen in South Florida was sold or went out of business about two years ago

Chapter 11 is bullsh*t reorganization bankruptcy.

Just a legal way to stiff creditors and continue on in business.

Chapter 7 is the real bankruptcy.

Here's the opportunity for Vince Goodrum to acquire Gold's Gym and expand the Caliber Fitness empire.

I thought Gold's was dead, short of 1-3 locations in California.

Hardly. Chap 11 let's a company survive while paying debts. It's a smart move. The government shut down gyms. How would you do anything different if your revenue source suddenly evaporated?

No - Arnold only buys things so he can show off.  He has no use for Gold's.

I’d say 8-10 years all the Golds near me turned into One Life. I thought it was because they went out of business. Didn’t know they were still a thing.
