YR Fitness

Shanghai – November 03, 2026 -- YR Fitness, a China-based manufacturer that says 100% of its strength machines are designed, developed and built in-house, will present new equipment at FIBO 2027 in Cologne, Germany, on April 8-11 at Booth 9E67.

The new machines have completed key internal testing, according to the company.

YR Fitness holds more than 200 patents after nearly three decades of in-house development

The company, founded in 1997, handles design, R&D, testing and manufacturing of its strength equipment itself. Its engineering focuses on movement paths, resistance, ergonomics and target-muscle engagement.

Specific features include specially designed cams that maintain resistance through more of the movement, and independent converging and diverging paths based on natural body motion.

Shanghai – October 06, 2026 -- YR Fitness has supplied commercial-grade equipment to 34,950 gyms across more than 110 countries since 1997, marking nearly three decades of operation in the commercial fitness-equipment segment.

YR Fitness equipment underpins multi-location chains from China to Australia

In China, Lefit has expanded to over 2,300 locations across 60 cities, operating a 24-hour access model with monthly memberships and digital management tools. In Japan, chocoZAP runs more than 2,000 sites under a convenience-fitness format. Sri Lanka's Power World Fitness Centres, active for over 30 years, now operates more than 20 locations, while Australia's Peak Fitness runs three 24/7 Gym & Recovery Centres in Melbourne combining training and recovery facilities.

Shanghai – September 29, 2026 -- YR Fitness plans to expand its one-stop commercial gym supply model by adding design and fit-out services, letting gym owners manage equipment sourcing and physical build-out through a single partner.

YR Fitness will phase in design and fit-out services based on market demand

The company, which has manufactured strength equipment in-house for nearly 30 years, said the rollout will occur in phases tied to specific market and project needs rather than a single simultaneous launch.

George Yang says the goal is consolidating more of the gym-build process under one team

"Opening a gym already means managing enough moving parts," said George Yang, founder and chief designer of YR Fitness. "If we can make equipment sourcing, planning, delivery and after-sales easier, we should. The next step is helping customers manage more of the project through the same team."
