About
At Palácio Fitness our passion is synthesizing form and function. When we launch a new product, we ask ourselves these three questions:
How will this look in our client’s home?
Will they be proud to display it?
Will it draw them to use it for their workout?
If our answer is not a resounding Yes! to each of these questions, the product will never leave our shop. Incomparable aesthetic appeal always begins with materials. Irresistible tactile pleasure always begins with materials. Acquiring generational value always begins with materials. Once our engineers and artisans have selected the highest quality materials that are ethically and sustainably sourced, we move on to the next step. We made a deliberate decision a long time ago to keep our manufacturing within the confines of the country in which the product will be finished and shipped. Doing so allows us to control quality, employ local workers, and keep our shipping and logistics costs low. So, for our US-based customers, we manufacture in the US. At Palácio Fitness, we employ cutting-edge processes and 21st-century technologies like 3D modeling, CNC cutting and machining, and 3D printing. However, our finishing touches are always accomplished by hand, to impeccable quality standards, by our experienced craftspeople.
Palácio Fitness: Our Mission, Our purpose
Our homes are our castles, our palaces. So, at Palácio Fitness, we take seriously the privilege you have granted us by allowing us into your home, that sacred place that is as individual as you are. When you decide to purchase a Palácio Fitness product, you have chosen to partner with us. Only you know the look, the feel, and the ambiance of your living room, den, bedroom, and space. You make the final decision on what gets to be on display in your home. Since we have rejected the function-only approach of most home fitness equipment manufacturers, at Palácio Fitness we see ourselves as home interior designers partnered with you, our client. But don’t let our fancy role fool you; we make it simple and economical for you to create the perfect ensemble for your home.
Working out in our home, whether on a cardio machine, with weights, on a pilates rig or doing yoga on a mat, has many benefits including the privacy we enjoy, the efficiency of it in our schedules, and the consistency and regularity it can give us. It is those last qualities about exercise, consistency and regularity, that are two of the most important aspects of a healthy life that includes fitness and optimal health. Making the decision to exercise is inevitably rooted in our emotions. Often we work out when we feel like it, when we’re inspired to do it, when we’re excited about the whole experience, including any of the equipment we use. We believe this emotional component of regularly working out is utterly ignored. With some noteworthy exceptions, home fitness equipment manufacturers offer us equipment that is cold, clunky, utterly unattractive. We buy it, use it for a while, pretend that we like using it, realize we don’t actually like using it, hate it, stop working out with it, and it suffers three fates: becoming a storage rack, being dragged to the curb, or being listed on ebay or Craigs List. Right?
Palácio Fitness offers pieces of workout equipment that draw us, that inspires us, that makes us feel good approaching it, using it, then storing it….or rather displaying it for all to see and admire. Can we have an emotional connection with an object? Absolutely! We do it with our automobiles. We do it with our furniture, with the art we collect, with the kitchens and bathrooms we design and build.
PetraBellsTM : Dumbbells you will love!
A set of PetraBellsTM combines natural stone plates, such as granite, marble, quartzite, agate, dolomite, quartz, calcite, sodalite, soapstone, and glass, with stunning hypoallergenic metal handles and hardware, like low-lead brass, nickel-free stainless steel, and precious metals like gold and platinum. They do not rust like cheap metals. They do not crack or fade in color like rubber and plastic-coated weights, and they do not degrade like wood weights. These crafted works of art are built to last…well, nearly forever.
Completing the PetraBellsTM dumbbell set is our magnificent custom-fit storage tray that not only keeps all the pieces organized but also displays the entire ensemble as an integrated, permanent addition designed to match your home décor!
