History

Established in 1913.

Oliphant’s Gym (known also as Oliphant’s Academy of Physical Culture) is a gym in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Founded in 1913 by William Oliphant Sr., it is believed to be the oldest gym in North America. Run by Buster Oliphant Jr., the son of William Oliphant Sr., until his death in 1996, the gym has a long history in Toronto’s Annex neighbourhood and has preserved its character over the decades. Since 1996, the gym has been operated by its members on a non-​profit and volunteer basis.
