THERE ARE a handful of fitness sales going on for Black Friday, especially when it comes to the wearables front. If you’re looking for a new fitness watch, then you have options. For starters, there’s a huge Apple Watch Black Friday sale happening. (Did you hear the Apple Watch SE is just $179?) Then there’s one on Garmin watches, where high-end models like the fēnix 7 Pro are on sale. But there’s one fitness wearable sale we didn’t expect, and it’s shaping up to be our favorite surprise sale so far: a $199 Black Friday sale on the Whoop 4.0 Band—the lowest price ever for the wearable with its 12-month subscription, according to Amazon price-checking site CamelCamelCamel.

Earlier this year, Whoop finally started selling its wearable on Amazon for easier purchasing. The best part about buying a Whoop band on Amazon is you get a 12-month subscription to the Whoop software with your purchase, thus allowing you to track health metrics and sleep metrics while never having to worry about a monthly payment for an entire year. The Whoop 4.0 Band with the 12-Month Subscription has stayed at an ironclad price on Amazon, rarely ever going on sale. The fact that it’s under $200 for Black Friday is a special deal that will allow you to opt in on one of the lightest wearables on the market and try something different than your traditional fitness watch.

Brett Williams, our Senior Fitness Editor and NASM-CPT certified trainer, has reviewed Whoop bands over the years. “What makes Whoop special is it informs its wearer how close they are to peak performance, and how much rest and recovery is needed to get them there,” Williams says. “I like how the strap and connected app continuously monitor the wearer’s heart rate and heart-rate variability, which are used to record activities, calculate fatigue levels and track sleep.”
Whoop is all about crunching numbers, and so what it does when all of your data is gathered is Whoop then calculates a “Strain” and “Recovery” score to help pinpoint with training and everyday lifestyle habits. “I’m seeing it more often on the wrists of people I respect in the fitness community—so you shouldn’t be surprised if you start seeing the straps in your local gym, too,” Williams says.
Now is the time to jump on this unique Black Friday sale. Get one for yourself, or wrap it up as a fitness gift or tech gift for your loved ones.
