Gold's Gym Venice

If it is something you haven't done yet in Venice, then you have to go and take a pic.

The first Gold's Gym opened in fall 1965 in Venice Beach, California.
Dubbed "the Mecca of bodybuilding", it was frequented by Arnold Schwarzenegger and Dave Draper and featured in the 1977 movie Pumping Iron. The movie brought attention not only to the gym itself, but also to the world of bodybuilding and physique in general. Jim Morrison of The Doors was also a frequent visitor to the Gold's Gym in Venice.

Gold's Gym's membership had included such celebrities as Jodie Foster, Morgan Freeman, The Rock, Hilary Swank, Keanu Reeves, 50 cents, Lou Ferrigno, Ron Rifkin, Adam Rodriguez, JCVD, Tiger Woods and Jessica Alba. To this day, the original Gold's Gym in Venice is considered a sports landmark and is recognized by ESPN.com on its list of the 100 most important sports venues.

Take a walk or a ride, it's on Hampton Drive...
