UPDATE: Oct. 31, 2022, 1:00 p.m. EDT This story has been updated with the best early deals on fitness gear for Black Friday 2022.

  • BEST FITNESS MIRROR DEAL: The Lululemon Studio Mirror (fka Mirror) is a user-friendly classic, and this is one of the lowest prices we've seen for it $795 $1495 (save $700 with code LLSTUDIO700)

  • BEST STATIONARY BIKE DEAL: The SoulCycle At-Home Bike is a solid Peloton alternative, and it's currently sitting at last year's Black Friday Price — $1,900 $2,500 (save $600)

  • BEST FITNESS TRACKER DEAL: The Apple Watch Series 7 (45mm, GPS) is back down to its previous lowest price in two colors— $309 $379 (save $70)


Wondering how to shop for fitness gear this Black Friday? We have you covered.

After the great Peloton craze and dumbbell shortage of 2020, we know firsthand that popular fitness gear can go out of stock fast. Considering this year's continuing supply chain backups, buying all your fitness gear early will be the name of the game this holiday season — especially for large exercise machines that require separate delivery and installation. Our advice to you this year (much like last year) is to buy early.

Many brands, including Peloton, Lululemon Studio, Tonal, and Tempo, have their own delivery and installation times that buyers select upon purchase. We expect these delivery times will get more and more booked up as we get closer to the holidays, so buying ASAP and setting a time for your exercise machine or smart home gym to be delivered will ensure you can get it before Christmas, Hanukkah, or the gift-giving holiday of your choice.

If you want that Echelon treadmill, the Lululemon Studio Mirror, or even a Fitbit, it's best to buy one as early as possible. Over the last few years, fitness brands have had a tendency to run monthlong sales during the shopping holidays, so waiting until Black Friday doesn't necessarily guarantee the best price. You'll likely be saving the same amount of money purchasing early rather than waiting until the actual shopping holiday, when you run the risk of products being unavailable.

Fitness deals to expect for Black Friday 2022

Last year brought us a $500 Mirror discount with free shipping and installation, tons of discounted indoor cycling bikes (including Peloton), and fitness trackers for cheap. The good news for shoppers is that this holiday shopping season is already shaping up to be on par with (or better than) last year in terms of fitness products.

A few quick examples: Mirror (now known as Lululemon Studio) hasn't officially launched a Black Friday deal, but the rebranding discount has already brought the fitness mirror down to $795 — one of the lowest prices we've seen. We also spotted the SoulCycle At-home Bike sitting at last year's Black Friday price.

While there's already a good amount of fitness tracker deals live, we're expecting that there will be bigger discounts on Fitbits and Apple Watches as we get closer to Black Friday. We're also hoping to see sales on the higher-end Echelon bikes, the Hydrow rowing machine, and of course, all things Peloton.

If you have a fitness fanatic on your gift list, we've rounded up the best deals on workout mirrors, indoor cycling bikes, treadmills, and fitness trackers. Bookmark this page and check back weekly — it'll be continuously updated with the latest sales.

Why we like it

Powered by Lululemon, the Lululemon Studio Mirror (formerly known as the Mirror) is a sleek minimal home gym that's ideal for yoga, pilates, stretching, strength training, and more. Aside from looking great in any space, Lululemon's Studio Mirror offers studio-style classes led by pro trainers, real-time optimization based on your workout preferences, custom playlists, and Apple Music integration. While this isn't technically the fitness mirror brand's official Black Friday deal, this discount already beats last year's Black Friday deal by $200.

Exercise bike deals

Why we like it

This $600 discount on the SoulCycle at-home bike matches the discount we saw last Black Friday — and it's available now. We wouldn't be surprised if SoulCycle dropped the price on this bike a bit more leading into the end-of-year shopping holidays, but $1,900 is still a solid price for this model.

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
