Darrel Schoolfield (founder), with a passion for weightlifting and experience as a welder began building equipment in his garage in the early 80s. Forced by demand to move out of the garage, he rented a larger location in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, hired help, and officially went into business then called DC Bodybuilding Equipment. Again, demand increased so he moved the business to Tulsa in 1988 and changed the name to Fitness Factory.
 
In 1995 Fitness Factory began Access Fitness a coed 24/7 facility that was created essentially by accident as an attempt to have a fully stocked commercial equipment showroom. Cameras and access control was added to create a self sufficient low overhead scenario. With the fitness center showing success and ease of manageability, proceeded to open two more locations over the next three years. Pioneer Strength Equipment was formed in 2002 to isolate the manufacturing from the gyms.

Today
Access Fitness has now offered the availability of offering licenses to franchise. With multiple locations and our strong equipment and fitness facility background, we are poised to be a leader in the unmanned 24/7 fitness center market.
