York Barbell was founded in 1932 by Bob Hoffman, who at the time was a prolific author of articles and books instilling the importance of exercise and nutrition. It was during the Los Angeles Olympics in 1932 that Hoffman noticed how the teams from other countries excelled in comparison to the American weightlifting team, so that same year Hoffman established the York Barbell Company and began promoting weightlifting across the USA. To further the improvements in performance, Hoffman reached out to ostracised minorities of the time to train and compete at York Barbell.

Throughout its history, York Barbell has revolutionised the design of training equipment and products. From the early glove barbell designs to today’s precision plates, innovative grip plates, finely crafted bars, and residential and commercial free weight equipment, York Barbell has consistently set the standard in product styling, performance, and value.

Today York Barbell boasts an extended list of customers and has supplied gym equipment to thousands of Collegiate, High School and Commercial Gyms around the World, and many Elite Teams across sporting genres, including NFL, NBA, NCAA Football and Basketball, SRFU, IRFU, Premiership Rugby Clubs, Premiership and League Football Teams.
