I’m a Fitness Editor—Here Are the Best October Prime Day Deals on Training Gear

Date:

Best Adjustable Dumbbells Deal

PowerBlock Elite EXP Adjustable Dumbbells

Prime Day Deal

Elite EXP Adjustable Dumbbells

I’ve personally used these adjustable dumbbells for years, and their ability to pack a punch while taking up a small amount of floor space is clutch. The PowerBlock brand is one of the most established and respected in the industry.

I’ve seen these dumbbells everywhere from the elite NFL training facility Exos and the home gym of world-renowned trainer Don Saladino.

Best Weighted Vest Deal

Wolf Tactical Weighted Vest

Prime Day Deal

Weighted Vest

This weighted vest has really helped me escalate my bodyweight workouts. I’ve had this piece for years, and it gets used no matter the season. This vest is much more comfortable than other options than I’ve tried in the past.

During the winter, bundled up and wearing my Wolf Tactical, I can make a lot out of a little amount of time. The design helps me stay cool during the summer months.

Best Marathon Headphones Deal

SHOKZ OpenRun Pro

Prime Day Deal

OpenRun Pro

There’s nothing better I like better than working out outdoors, getting some endorphins and a little natural vitamin D. That includes running and bicycling on the road for hours, even if it’s a bit crisp outside.

No matter whether you live in the city or in the suburbs, it’s dangerous to be on the street with noise canceling headphones stunting your awareness. I like these Shokz OpenRun Pros because I can keep listening to my training playlist while hitting the pavement.

Best Weight Bench Deal

Flybird Weight Bench

Prime Day Deal

Weight Bench

This is a great bench to pair with the PowerBlock dumbbells, if you decide to pick those up, or whatever weights you have at home. This is a great piece of gear to really increase the amount of exercises you can do at home.

There are a lot of weight benches that out there, but many of them are pretty flimsy. Not the case with this Flybird bench, which is also pretty comfortable for those long training days when you’re hitting chest.

Best Fitness Tracker Deal

Oura Ring Gen3 Horizon

Prime Day Deal

Gen3 Horizon

I’ve never liked too much on my wrists, so in the past I haven’t had much success sticking with a fitness tracker. I would wear a heart rate strap on more intense cardio sessions but that’s about it. That changed when Oura Ring hit the scene, which I wrote about here.

I like keeping track of my biomarkers, and being able to switch fingers keeps me from feeling too constrained. The data I collect from their app helps inform the training decisions I make throughout the week.

Brooks Glycerin GTS 20 Running Shoe

Prime Day Deal

Glycerin GTS 20 Running Shoe

Prepping for a marathon is serious business, and it’s important to have the right kind of footwear if you plan on going 26.2 miles. I’m a huge fan of these shoes from Brooks. They are comfortable but not overstuffed, so you can still feel the ground.

The Glycerins have popped on our “best shoes” lists quite a few times, as I’m not the only editor who is a fan. This colorway is great too, bringing a little pop into the equation.

Best Fit Dad Deal

BOB Gear Wayfinder Jogging Stroller

Prime Day Deal

Wayfinder Jogging Stroller

I was on a cycling cardio kick until recently, when we were lucky enough to welcome our daughter Rose into the family. She recently turned nine months old, and was cleared by our doctor to join me on a run in a jogging stroller.

Now there is nothing I look forward to more than buckling her up in the Bob and going for a jog on the track or on some local trails. The Wayfinder lives up to its name, keeping the ride smooth no matter what terrain we are on.

Best Hydration Drink Deal

LIQUID I.V. Hydration Mix

Prime Day Deal

Hydration Mix

I drink a lot, a lot, of water throughout the day. But when you are having the summer that we are having right now, and you like to train outdoors, it’s never enough.

I have enjoyed adding a Liquid I.V. to my water almost daily, usually after I’ve finished my run. Their citrus-based flavors are refreshing and fun. It’s an easy way to level up a glass of water and keep the hydration process from getting too monotonous.

Best Protein Powder Deal

Organic Plant-Based Protein Powder

Prime Day Deal

Plant-Based Protein Powder

In an effort to clean up my diet and reset my digestive system, I was vegan for about a year. During that time, I learned great sources of protein that were plant-based, but the products from Orgain is what helped me hit my quotas.

I believe this to be one of the cleanest, and the best tasting, protein powders on the market. If you’re like me, you don’t mind filling a closet full of protein, because it’ll always be needed. Why not save while you stock up?
