If you haven&#8217;t been, one of the major drawing points of the festival is the massive expo. Every health and fitness brand you could possibly think of (and then some) shows up, and one of those big names in attendance was Gold&#8217;s Gym.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Gold&#8217;s Gym has long been deemed the &#8220;mecca&#8221; of bodybuilding. Founded in 1965 by Joe Gold in Venice, California, it quickly became a hub for serious lifters. Arnold Schwarzenegger famously trained there during his rise to fame, cementing the gym\u2019s legendary status in the fitness world. Even today, that reputation holds merit, with Schwarzenegger still making visits<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"Arnold Schwarzenegger at the Gold's Gym booth at 2026 Arnold Sports Festival&lt;p&gt;Frozen Fire&lt;\/p&gt;\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"939\" height=\"800\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/1Wz3pEg2HBJ2bKneOsYtDg--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTgxODtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/men_s_journal_718\/0ce4ef2e56c3a70617ac76e8d577888d\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-0 size-full\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-3 right-3 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal dialogue\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed bottom-0 left-0 right-0 top-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<div style=\"max-height:none;overflow:visible\">\n<div>Arnold Schwarzenegger at the Gold&#8217;s Gym booth at 2026 Arnold Sports Festival<\/p>\n<p>Frozen Fire<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><span>(Frozen Fire)<\/span><\/div>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">For decades, Gold\u2019s symbolized the pinnacle of bodybuilding culture. But if you walked into the expo this year (or have been a proud Gold&#8217;s member), it&#8217;s clear the brand is evolving to meet the current fitness landscape. Of course, its bodybuilding roots remain a point of pride, but Gold\u2019s is building on that legacy to become a full lifestyle brand: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/lifestyle\/60-quotes-strength-resilience-help-161212714.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:strength;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;strength&quot;}\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\">strength<\/a>, performance, nutrition, and apparel all designed to support athletes in and out of the gym.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;Everyone&#8217;s focused on strength and performance, and that&#8217;s who we are, that&#8217;s our DNA,&#8221; says Brad Reynolds, co-CEO of Gold&#8217;s Gym. &#8220;So when we talk about being more innovative, really, it&#8217;s just giving our members what they want.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/sports.yahoo.com\/articles\/arnold-schwarzenegger-named-2026-don-143929301.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Related: Arnold Schwarzenegger Named 2026 Don Wildman Commitment to Excellence Award Winner by NASM;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Related&quot;}\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\">Related: Arnold Schwarzenegger Named 2026 Don Wildman Commitment to Excellence Award Winner by NASM<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">For instance, Reynolds told me that in their new builds, Gold\u2019s is adding roughly 20 percent more plate-loaded and pin-loaded machines, along with 30 to 40 percent more dumbbells in every gym. But it doesn\u2019t stop there. As more people embrace healthier lifestyles in a more holistic way, Gold\u2019s has also leaned into supplements, apparel, and partnerships that let members take the brand beyond the walls of their home gym.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"Gold's Gym bench press competition at 2026 Arnold Sports Festival&lt;p&gt;Frozen Fire&lt;\/p&gt;\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"939\" height=\"800\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/QIJmBRNpVGhRGaisRyQw3Q--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTgxODtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/men_s_journal_718\/adcae0cf31e228a91fe35b43fecbc6d8\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-0 size-full\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-3 right-3 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal dialogue\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed bottom-0 left-0 right-0 top-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<div style=\"max-height:none;overflow:visible\">\n<div>Gold&#8217;s Gym bench press competition at 2026 Arnold Sports Festival<\/p>\n<p>Frozen Fire<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><span>(Frozen Fire)<\/span><\/div>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Gold&#8217;s Gym Supplements<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">While at the Arnold Sports Festival, I had the chance to speak with Kenny Carter, Gold\u2019s Gym\u2019s Director of Product Strategy and Innovation, who walked me through the full line and let me try everything firsthand.
