WorkHarder Gym is a specialized gym dedicated to lifting and strength training, strategically located at 5320 S Shackleford Rd, Little Rock, AR. A go-to place for powerlifters, bodybuilders, and average gym-goers, it sports a forward-thinking environment that motivates members to work harder. Despite its size, pundits praise the gym for its cleanliness, top-notch equipment, inclusive atmosphere, and helpful owners. With a focus on community and respect, it has made a mark for itself in the landscape of Arkansas's fitness industry.
The gym, however, falls short in terms of offering a wide variety of cardio machines. And while they have made significant strides to make the gym secure and comfy for women, some female customers still feel a bit uneasy. In addition, some criticisms have been made about the gym's owner seemingly deriding powerlifters, filming their lifts, and members wearing compression gear.

- Some complaints about the owner's attitude and comments.
- Music played at loud volume, making it difficult for members to listen to their own tracks.

By far the best gym in town for powerlifting. Small gym but with awesome vibes. 5 squat racks and 2 deadlift platforms. Nice staff and community with great etiquette. Cool lightings as well. Only downsides: closed on Sundays and relatively far from home

Majority members there don’t like the owner, but besides him being a cry baby and criticizing the members and completely messing up his first and probably only USPA competition at his own gym last minute the gym is good 💯 …
