First Fitness Gyms in History.
The first gymnasiums in history were dated over 3000 years ago, in ancient Persia, where they were known as Zurkhaneh, as areas that encouraged physical fitness.
But gyms formally came into existence in ancient Greece. The word 'gymnasium' is derived from the Greek word 'gymnos', which means naked. Gyms were usually a locality for the education of young men, which included physical education and bathing and studying. The ancient Greek gymnasiums were places where athletes trained for public games such as the Olympics.
