These Prime Day Fitness Deals Will Totally Upgrade Your Stay-At-Home Gym

October 13, 2020

In 2020, gyms shut down — and, for many of us, so did our fitness routines. But then we took a chance on workout equipment: creating our own personal gyms inside our living spaces, free of overpriced membership fees and impossible to get into 7 a.m. classes. Now that we’re workout-from-home pros AND Amazon Prime Day is upon us, it’s a smart time to affordably add some new exercise equipment to our favorite fitness studio in town (aka our apartment).

Ahead, find the best Prime Day deals on everything from indoor bikes to exercise balls, dumbbell sets, and activewear essentials that will give your personal-gym setup a major equipment upgrade.

At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff—and, while we do receive commission from Amazon, all of the goods linked to on our site are independently selected and supported by our Shopping team.

The JaxJox interactive home gym.

JaxJox

JaxJox, which makes a smart personalized home gym that uses AI to track and improve your performance and give you a wellness score, just scored itself. The Seattle-based fit tech company announced today that it has raised $10 million to bring its JaxJox “interactive fitness studio” to market.

The company also announced an exclusive retail partnership with Best Buy, and customers can get the fitness studio installed by Best Buy’s Geek Squad.

The system consists of a 43” touchscreen TV that can display fitness classes as well as data about your performance. The screen rotates both horizontally and vertically, and tilts if you’re doing floor exercises. Crucially, however, JaxJox isn’t just about cardio: the system has integrated smart dumbbells and a smart kettlebell — both configurable for different weights — that also report performance data. There’s also a “smart push-up device” and a vibrating,

CINCINNATI, Oct. 13, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — A new gym based out of Cincinnati, OH is boosting client confidence for a return to the gym by utilizing a new medical grade UVGI technology that meets the CDC standard for killing viruses. Tyler and Michelle Menke are a husband/wife duo that had a dream of opening a fitness business. After years of research and analysis of other fitness franchises, last December they decided to take the leap and began making plans for the development of a gym concept that would incorporate their love of strength training and yoga.

Then COVID hit…

After lots of sleepless nights, the Menke’s came to a decision to keep pursuing their dream. Tyler, who quit his high paying medical device job to dedicate time to the gym, began making calls to old vendor contacts and found a left over UVGI system from the pop-up hospitals. He

In Former Taliban Stronghold, Defiant Women Hit the Gym

KANDAHAR, Afghanistan — Homa Yusafzai felt terrible. Her weight was up, she had diabetes and high blood pressure, and at just 27 she felt lethargic and depressed.

Then she heard that Kandahar’s first health club for women had just opened — the miracle she had been waiting for, she thought. Her husband at first refused to let her join. Kandahar is a deeply conservative city, a former headquarters of the Taliban where men still dictate the most prosaic details of women’s lives.

But ultimately, he relented, and Ms. Yusafzai now works out six days a week, straining through hand-weight repetitions and pounding a treadmill. In six months, she said, she had shed almost 50 pounds, lowered her blood pressure and brought her diabetes under control.

“I feel so healthy and I have more energy — I’m so happy,” she said as she rested between workouts.

LANCASTER – Unique to the area, Lancaster has a residents-only gym that is free of charge to use, called the Backstage Gym. It is located in the center of town, inside the Lancaster Community Center – unsurprisingly, on the stage – and has recently reopened after its forced closure due to the pandemic.

“The gym is a cooperative venture of the Friends of Lancaster Seniors and the town of Lancaster,” said Alix Turner, director of both the Community Center and the Council on Aging.

The town supplies the space, insurance and equipment maintenance as well as town employees like facilities workers (and Turner) to help keep the gym running. The Friends finance the project, donating the fitness equipment and supplies to the town, at a cost of $8,000 and counting. According to Turner, the Friends also provide “the many volunteers who make the place hum.”
