Gymstick International was founded by two sport professionals, Risto Kasurinen and Miika Vesalainen in 2003, starting as athletes and sport instructors in the Sports Institute of Finland. Risto had spent years from 1995 developing a fibreglass stick with resistance bands for training, after spending all his savings to create the first Gymstick in 1997 and also contributing to the global Nordic Walking phenomenon that now has over 20 million participants. Gymstick International is a leading fitness equipment brand from Finland, offering over 650 sports, fitness, and wellness products including professional-grade cardio machines and home fitness tools. Gymstick’s wide sport product range is sold in six continents, in over 45 countries and through thousands of resellers. Offering cardio, strength, functional, fitness, recovery, and outdoor equipment alongside the iconic Gymstick Originals, Gymstick products are consistent eBay UK and Amazon bestsellers backed by a confirmed B2B extranet, Partners page, and dedicated instructor programming through the Gymstick App.
