Early Black Friday fitness deals: Fitness trackers, exercise equipment up to 51% off

Update 11/6/24: Though this is our first iteration of such a list for the 2024 Black Friday season, we’re already quite happy with it. Apple showed up with an affordable Apple Watch (which has fitness tracking that, though on the simpler side, we actually like better than some of its more complex siblings) and the Peloton Guide is $100 off. Plus, we were able to find smart tracking in stationary scale format for just $23, an entry-level price anybody can afford. This is a great start and we’re excited to see what is to come…

Despite lingering stereotypes, the tech space and fitness space are quite closely related. And so, for this Black Friday season, we know you may be interested in some great fitness gear. Luckily, while Black Friday officially starts on November 29, you can go ahead and get started on your fitness resolutions way early with early Black Friday deals. That means that if the early Black Friday headphones deal you picked up happens to be a good pair of running headphones, now is a fantastic time to pick up an exercise bike or treadmill. Alternatively, now is also a great time to pick up an excellent fitness tracker with early Black Friday smartwatch deals. No matter what your goals, however, the following deals are ripe and ready now, not in a few weeks, so there is no reason to delay your plans.

How we chose these fitness products for Black Friday

The most important thing for us was to deliver you a combination of fitness trackers and exercise products that could fit all of your needs. And, of course, doing so while finding great prices.

We combed through fitness trackers, exercise bikes and other such machines, and other related fitness products to find something that you could confidently use.

Since this is Digital Trends, we also looked for products — when possible — that fit the somewhat digital lifestyle you are likely to have. Little things like being able to connect to your exercise bike via your workout earbuds or headphones was a big boon, for example. In short, this is a curated list for you, our readers.
