York has been a world wide trusted name in exercise equipment for many years. York started in the US in 1932, and then it branched out to Canada in 1936. The company grew to such excess that it has plants and offices globally, now including the UK. The Canadian plant offered the cross trainers while the American counterpart offered weight lifting and gym equipment.
The founder of York, Bob Hoffman, was the coach for the USA’s Olympic Weightlifting team from 1948 to 1964. He was renowned as the ‘Father of World Weightlifting’ by the Olympic Weightlifting Federation for his part in establishing weightlifting as an Olympic sport. Most gym and weightlifting equipment in the world today bears the name of York quite proudly.
