I grew up coming to this gym since I was a kid and it use to be such a clean and updated gym. Now it’s just decent. Sauna is horrible and takes forever to warm up. They use to offer a hot-tub but that’s gone. The showers/ bathrooms are old and basically falling apart. They do have a lot of machines but a lot are old. It definitely needs a lot of updating to ever be close to it’s former glorify.Update: they have started to remodel and update the carpet and bathrooms so there is hope for this gym.
If your serious about maintaining a daily workout routine, this is the perfect gym.
The gym is dirty. The pool is nasty. The equipment is not maintained. Half the treadmills do not work and have sat there for 3 years with no repair. Weights are never there when you need them. Curl bars mysteriously vanish for weeks and then pop back up. Bathrooms and showers are not clean. Manager and staff do not listen to recommendations or concerns. The manager tried to nearly double my low monthly payment from my lifetime contract I signed 23 yrs ago. He told me it was no longer valid because times have changed. I cancelled my membership of 23 years. Everything started going downhill around 2018.
I absolutely love this gym. But I do wish we could get some newer equipment.
When signing up, I wasnt offered a tour so I asked for one. The guy at the front desk said The layout is pretty straightforward. The weight room is right down the stairs. I asked him where the cardio room is and his response was same room. Considering that Im new to working out, I would have appreciated being offered a tour and how to properly use the gym equipment. Its a liability for them for not showing how to use equipment, too. I wont be here long, just waiting for my regular gym to open back up. And today my friend and I decided to workout and we walked in with no masks and was asked if we had ours with us. We said no and the front desk guy straight up said get out. It was our fault for not bringing masks but he definitely could have been nicer about it. Hate to say it but Im not impressed with this facility at all.
Very spacious gym and has great things to offer but the machines are old, dirty, and some treadmills do not work! The staff could also be a little more dedicated. I was not offered a tour of the facilty, had to walk myself around to figure where everything is. I did not feel encouraged at all to work out while I was there.
Ive been coming to this gym for 5 years now, I worked here for two a ways back. Ive been to all the other gyms in fort Smith and several others throughout the states and this is by far my favorite. Its my home gym, so what can I say. Great knowledge members as well as employees.
I work all over the world and have been to many gyms. Most of the gyms Ive found that are the best are the established locally owned ones. World Class Fitness is that gym in Fort Smith! The staff is very personable and helpful. The trainers are easy to approach. They offer many options for everyones fitness goals. They are the only gym that offers a smoothie bar that Ive been to and they are awesome!
Love this Gym. Nicole does a great job. She has helped me as a personal trainer and is a great friend. They have made incredible changes to the looks of this place and it get better every day. The people who work out here are friendly and great.
Absolutely love this gym. The only one id workout at. I feel so incredibly comfortable to be able to work out.
Spacious, great variety of equipment, and it smells like a gym. Knowledgeable staff and approachable patrons. Clean facility - even the water from the fountain is palatable and tastes appropriately filtered.
Ive been a member at this gym for many years.I past 5 gyms on my way to World Class 5 days a week .World Class is home to me,They have professional staff, all the members are polite and respectable, clean environment, and if you have any issues the staff and management will listen and take prompt care of any issues ...Child care is always nice and free at World Class.With low membership fees and the staff they have, I never see myself leaving ....
The staff were very friendly and showed me around the entire gym. There is ample equipment and variety of equipment to reach your workout goals. A Womens Only area is also available as well as separate male and female sauna facilities located in the locker rooms. Just a great gym if your looking for one that has everything including a pool and outdoor workout area for tire flipping, walking bb lunges and basketball.
Awesome gym! It has all the equipment I need to reach my fitness goals. The customer service is excellent. Always willing to help and answer any questions I have. The smoothies are superb! Having the smoothie bar, with the pre workout and protein drinks make it very coventient! Best gym from all aspects I have ever been too!!
I have been going to this gym for years, and I have always been treated well! The personal trainers are great, and the daycare services are fantastic. Ive been to a few gyms locally, but World Class Fitness is the best by far!
WCF is by far the best gym in Fort Smith. Its one of the few gyms Ive been to that is friendly and accommodating for people of ALL levels of fitness. Whether youve been lifting weights for 20 years or have just decided to get up off your couch, WCF will have something for you. They also have the friendliest and most helpful staff in town by a long shot. If youre fearful or insecure about going to the gym, give them a try. You wont be disappointed.
WCF is seriously the worse gym I have ever been to for multiple reasons. The members have no gym etiquette at all. People crowd equipment and have 15 minute conversations while not even using it, they use equipment as their personal coffee tables, they slam weights so hard the break them, yell, scream, talk about using roids in front of everyone. Every gym has these typical meatheads, but these people take it to the next level. The entire staff besides the female manager is very rude and lazy, any request is a huge inconvenience for them do not cause them to have to work because they will let you know how annoying that is. Parts of the gym go weeks without being cleaned, they will go months without refilling the sanitizer for the tanning beds so use caution before you lay down on one. Even the owners attitude is I really dont care if you workout here, I wont go out of my way to make members happy. The worse part of this place is close to half the equipment is broken or defective is some way. I have literally seen equipment break down totally on people, I personally have almost been seriously injured more than once because of faulty equipment, and Ive seen people almost injured. Working out here is actually dangerous for you health. A gym is not the place you want to be cheap and careless, if your equipment is messed up or broke it has to be fixed putting peoples health at risk so you can save money is not okay. This place is old as is most of the stuff in it, it needs updated severely. I have held a membership here at two separate times and it used to be a pretty good gym, but it has significantly gone down hill in just a year. Its too bad because it has the potential to be an amazing place to workout, if someone who could put money back in to it owned it, it could easily see its real potential. I will not miss working out here.
The best gym in Fort Smith Arkansas. Has all the free weights, weight machines and cardio equipment you could ask for. You dont have to wait around for anything, if by chance someones on something you wanted to use they have other equipment that works the same muscles. The equipment is in good condition and as I am writing this review they are bringing in more and newer equipment. Ive been to other gyms but this is the gym I joined. Its a Iron Paradise! One more thing lol, the staff are friendly and helpful. UPDATE- They are now a 24 hour gym!
A lot of equipment and wonderful employees ready to extend a helping hand and give advice fir whatever it is one would need. Trainers are on site if one needs that one on one push.
I am an avid fitness junkie. I also have a background in exercise science and personal training. This gym offers a community of other runners, group exercise classes, powerlifting and body building. Everyone that works at WCF is extremely friendly. The gym is maintained and cleaned properly. Some of the equipment is a tad older but always working. So if you are used to a LA Fitness with brand new equipment this may be a shock at first. But, I will assure you they have unlimited dumbbells, benches, and racks. You dont wait long for a piece of equipment even at prime time. Plenty of cardio machines as well. Overall, id say 4.5/5 for stars. Definelty one of the top 5 gyms Ive trained at in the last 11 years.
Did not like it close all the time unprofessional put on website going to b open there were not or really late like half an hour or better only bout 20 people standing round waiting just like this morning get up 2 hours early jus so I can go workout but no there not open on there website it says there supposed to b open and then it says hours may differ what the hell is that supposed to mean I guess ur supposed to b half mind reader to workout there very unprofessional. Heres an idea how bout u open when u say u r not hours may differ thats crap
Staff are morons. Was told by one employee I couldnt cancel my membership until 1 year is up. Year is almost up so I checked back with a different employee about it, and was told I could have just canceled months ago. About $600 wasted, and will not be discounted or reimbursed in any way.
Love this place!
