“Skelcore had an incredibly successful Powerhouse Gym clothing collaboration with our licensee in Miami and Fort Lauderdale, which opened the door for a larger scale relationship,” said Henry Dabish, CEO of Powerhouse Gyms International. ”My dad, co-founder Will Dabish, my brother Victor and I visited Skelcore headquarters to try out the equipment. We were very impressed with the quality and unique angles of the equipment bringing differentiation and innovation to our facilities.”
Dabish also shared that Skelcore has also “concluded a number of global retail deals with our Powerhouse Gym brand on equipment and are in final discussions with some big box retail chains in the U.S. to list the new equipment line.”
Along with equipment from Skelcore, Powerhouse Gyms is a home for group exercise, personal training, group cycle and yoga. The gym brand has 300 licensees across 39 U.S. states and 20 countries, with locations in places including Japan, China, India and Australia.

The Miami-based equipment brand is a member of Evolution Group US, which was a Gold‘s Gym global licensee and Walmart private label supplier for over 10 years.
“I am thrilled about our collaboration with Powerhouse Gyms International,” Ackermann said. “This partnership aligns perfectly with our mission to revolutionize the fitness landscape and provide comprehensive solutions to fitness enthusiasts worldwide.”
