Amazon Big Deal Days is coming October 7-8, and Lifehacker is sharing the best sales based on product reviews, comparisons, and price-tracking tools before it’s over.<\/p>\n
October\u2019s Prime Big Deal Days don\u2019t officially kick off until tomorrow, but as usual, some of the sales are getting started early. Here are my picks for the best fitness equipment you can already get at a discount. (I\u2019ll keep updating this article as more things go on sale.)<\/p>\n
The best Prime Day deals on weights<\/p>\n
This Fitvids Olympic bumper plate set<\/a> is a good deal, giving you 370 pounds of weight for $399.99. It includes a regulation-sized bar with 2\u201d sleeves, and one pair each of bumper plates in 55, 45, 35, 25, 15, and 10 pounds. Some of those weights are an unusual choice\u2014most of us would skip the 35s and 15s and just get extras of the more common sizes\u2014but there\u2019s nothing wrong with loading a bar this way, and you\u2019ll certainly get plenty of use out of a set like this. (Bumpers are especially good for home gyms since they deaden a bit of the sound and impact of deadlifts on the floor.)<\/p>\n I\u2019m not seeing any big sales on big-name brands of adjustable dumbbells just yet, but these Lifepro dumbbells also have a modest discount that\u2019s worth taking a look at: You can save $10 on a pair of 25-pound adjustables<\/a> ($189.99, normally $199.99) or $32 on a single 90-pound adjustable dumbbell<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n The best Prime Day deals on cardio equipment<\/p>\n Two Hydrow rowers are on sale today. The Hydrow Origin<\/a>, with a 22\u201d screen and streaming content, is $1,645, down from $2,195. And the Hydrow Wave<\/a>, with a 16\u201d screen, is $1,694, down from $1,995. For more on this brand, read our own Meredith Dietz\u2019s review of a different model, the Hydrow Arc<\/a>. She was impressed by both the rower\u2019s build quality and Hydrow\u2019s \u201cgenuinely intelligent training experience.\u201d<\/p>\n NordicTrack\u2019s commercial series treadmills are also discounted today, like this Commercial 1250<\/a>, which is $1,638.99, down from $1,999.99. Pooboo also has its airbike<\/a> available for $499.99 after a digital coupon, down from a list price of $699.99.\u00a0<\/p>\n What do you think so far?<\/p>\n The best Prime Day deals on sensors and wearables<\/p>\n Fitbit has some of its trackers on sale already, including the Charge 6<\/a> for $119.95, down from $159.95, and the Inspire 3<\/a> for $79.95, down from $99.95. You can read my review of the Charge 6 here<\/a>\u2014it\u2019s a solid tracker if you\u2019re just looking for the basics.\u00a0<\/p>\n Some of Polar\u2019s heart rate monitors are on sale as well, including the classic H10 chest strap<\/a> for $89.21, down from $104.95, and the Verity Sense<\/a> optical armband monitor for $82.91, down from $104.95. Some people find the armband more comfortable, but an electronic chest strap will always give you the best accuracy<\/a>.<\/p>\n Looking for something else? Retailers like Walmart and Best Buy have Prime Day competition sales that are especially useful if you don\u2019t have Amazon Prime.<\/p>\n Our Best Editor-Vetted Early Prime Day Deals Right Now<\/p>\n \n Deals are selected by our commerce team<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"We may earn a commission from links on this page.
