How We Picked the Best Gear

We don’t just recommend gear because it has a shiny discount tag attached to it. The Men’s Health editors spend 365 days a year abusing this stuff in real life. Sweating through the shorts, running miles into the ground with the sneakers, and pushing smartwatch batteries to their absolute absolute limits.

For this guide, we drew a hard line: If a specific brand didn’t survive our rigorous hands-on testing, or if the price drop isn’t a genuine, historic low, it didn’t make the cut. We actively talked to our team of trainers and gear nerds to verify what’s actually worth opening your wallet for, ensuring you only spend your hard-earned cash on the stuff we proudly pack in our own gym bags.
