Black Friday is Coming...

Black Friday 2020 is November 27!

Black Friday is hands down the best time of the year to purchase fitness equipment.

Many of the companies making the best gear like Rogue Fitness, Fringe Sport, American Barbell, Kettlebell Kings, and others have better deals on Black Friday than any other time of the year. If you've been looking for equipment, apparel, shoes, etc, I've got you covered. 

I’ll be listing last year’s sale info till new details are available. Check back regularly, since I’ll be updating the list as 2020 Black Friday fitness equipment deals are announced!

UPDATE: A few companies have decided to run sales all through the month of November! Read on for more details!

Kettlebell Kings specializes almost exclusively in kettlebells, and as a result they are making some of the best products available for home fitness as well as kettlebell sport.

If you've been thinking of buying some kettlebells, Black Friday is a great time to pick up some quality kettlebells at a great price!

Fringe Sport is absolutely killing it in terms of quality versus cost with the equipment they're putting out. I have several pieces of Fringe sport gear and it's all stuff I use on a regular basis.

Rogue is doing something a little different for 2019 by introducing "Matte Black November", which kicks of November 1st and ends on midnight December 1st. 

In addition to exclusive gear deals and Hundo pricing, they typically offer a 5 for 5 deal where you can have five pieces of equipment shipped for five bucks. Not bad!

Vulcan Strength makes fantastic strength training equipment as well as some innovative kettlebells. I own several pieces of Vulcan Strength gear, including kettlebells, bumper plates, and a powerlifting bar. All of it is top notch stuff and they deserve more recognition than they usually get. 

The Vulcan Strength Black Friday 2019 sale is on and runs through December 2nd! Vulcan Strength is running a tiered discount sale, where the percentage discount is determined by the total dollar amount in your shopping cart. The greater the dollar amount in the shopping cart, the larger the discount applied to those specified items.

Here are the discount tiers:

• 7% ($0 to $1,000)
• 10% ($1,001 to $2,000)
• 12% ($2,001 to $3,000)

In addition, there are lots of individual items that are on sale with "locked-in" discounts. 

In my opinion, American Barbell is currently making the highest quality made-in-USA barbells you can buy.

American Barbell usually has a sale once a quarter, but their Black Friday sale is by far the best. In addition, they are always offering killer deals on slightly blemished and overstock items.

Rep Fitness doesn't stock as diverse a selection of gear as some of the other companies on this list, but what they do have is good quality at a great price.  

The 2019 Rep Fitness Black Friday sale will run from November 25th through December 2nd, with deep discounts on specific items as well as 5%-15% the entire website!

Onnit is probably best known for supplements, but they do have a line of unconventional fitness gear as well. I have several steel maces and a set of wooden clubs from Onnit that I use frequently.
