Black Friday 2020

**dingdongkunt** · 11-19-2020, 05:54 PM

Post any deals here if there are any this year.

**radrd** · 11-19-2020, 06:37 PM

Not going to be many deals this year. Elitefts is offloading some stuff no one really wants. That might be about it.

**Duplicitous** · 11-19-2020, 06:50 PM

There are forums that are entirely dedicated to deals and everything fitness-related that has been posted on those sites in the last couple months have been full price items that are in stock. That's where we are at on fitness "deals" this season.

Powerblock 50lb sets on Amazon today, appears to be close to normal pricing....

EliteFTS said they MIGHT put the SS Yoke on sale if they get their inventory they are expecting (though they have been experiencing delays). I have been wanting to snag one of those so I'm going to wait to see anyway, I've waited this long so I can go another week.

**urbanlifter** · 11-20-2020, 07:03 AM

NVM, also check your local DSG for Powerblock's. I just repurchased the set I flipped back in March with their $20 off $100 Black Friday promo, $298 after tax and they have the curbside pickup so I'll have them today. It's been a minute since they finally had them back in stock, made $120 off the last set so that works for me

Edit: DANG, those PB's sold out on Amazon in the blink of an eye.

Not technically a Black Friday Deal, but Strength Shop is finally bringing their Spider Bar over and has it on pre-order for $225 shipped right now (expected to ship 1/29/21):

The EliteFTS Spider bar is still the gold standard for this type of bar as far as I'm concerned, but for $225 shipped I'm going to try it out.

Pretty much. A deal these days is 1) In stock 2) Full retail price 3) Actually in stock to where they can ship it and you'll receive in a week or so (as opposed to bullsh*t in stock)

Squat Magic on sale today, GO GO GO!

(giggle)

SS Yoke is $50 off, decided to just go ahead and get one even though there were a lot better sales in the past. Been wanting a SSB for a while now and I couldn't bring myself to buy a Titan.

Understandable, I hate money too....(giggle). Kidding, but I see Vulcan and Elite sent out Black Friday emails today

**vhd16** · 11-25-2020, 04:24 PM

I am currently using only fat bars due to elbow and shoulder issues

So far I have only hallow bars

Anybody has this bar ? If yes is it solid one? Looks like it is not but tough to tell as it says weight of the bar is 55 lbs Usually 7 ft solid ones are like 70 lbs and above

https://www.elitefts.com/fat-bar-wit...ving-ends.html

I can go custom route with bigness strength but I think wait time is like 3 to 4 months

**radrd** · 11-25-2020, 04:56 PM

Got an email from American Barbell saying they'll have free shipping sitewide on Fri. A lot of stuff is out of stock, but it's better than nothing.

Vulcan's was pretty crappy. Considering their customers service sucks ***, 5% for $1-2K is pre6tty disappointing. Heck, I get 5% on sporting goods with one of my credit cards.

5% ⟶ ($1000 to $2000)
7% ⟶ ($2001 to $5000)
10% ⟶ ($5001 to $10,000)
12% ⟶ (10,001 to $15,000)

Their Absolute Power Bars are highly regarded here, other than that I really don't care much about the brand. But they are announcing sales so this thread is where they go...

**aloosecannon** · 11-26-2020, 04:36 AM

Spud Inc will have 30% off straps on Friday.

**urbanlifter** · 11-27-2020, 09:56 AM

Check out Titan today, surprised to find quite a few decent items on sale!!!! Sled for $168, Yukon bar $164, Seal Row bar $111, Standing back extension $349....

Picked up the Yukon bar when they had it on flash sale + 5% coupon a month or so ago. It does have the issue of potentially sliding down the j-cup when the first 45 is loaded on (easy to work around), but I'm pretty happy with it and it's let me get back into "normal" back squatting with a messed up elbow/shoulder. At the sale price there's nothing better without paying 2x or more.

**urbanlifter** · 11-27-2020, 11:14 AM

I'm not going to buy anything this BF, but that Standing Back Extension really caught my eye. I've wanted one ever since I saw Edge's unit ($700), lots of possibilities with that thing...(reverse flys, bent over rows, good mornings, preacher curl, band work, ect).

I've got their curl bar and am satisfied with it. I just think their CS sucks. The CS bar isn't terribly high in this industry either, so that says something. :P

**tmonkey** · 11-27-2020, 10:18 PM

Meh, I got a sled strap and some accessories for my new lat machine from elite. I doubt I will get anything for quite awhile unless prices get back in line, I have more than what i need now of course lol

**urbanlifter** · 11-30-2020, 05:13 AM

Not a Black Friday deal, but I found the design of these squat stands REALLY interesting! They are 2.7x2.7" which isn't hateful, you could easily shim some 3x3 attachments if you wanted to add a little nicer j-hooks. Was just thinking there are alot of different situations where these could come in handy. Mobile setup, drag them outside on a nice summer day, extreme limited space in an apartment (pair with a foldable flat bench/ 5ft barbell)? If these ever dipped down into the $150 range I might have use for something like that....

Yeah at some point I'll probably get some of those since I can't fit a normal rack in my apartment.

one of them is a cheap oly bar with a fat sleeve. Not sure which though.

**pissbag** · 11-30-2020, 12:45 PM

Got some goodness on amazon

**Deep-Voiced-One** · 11-30-2020, 05:12 PM

Does Elitefts apply their "Free Shipping" with qualifying $49.95 order once the order is placed?

I was wondering because I'm curious if it applies to their SS Yoke Bar, it appears when I put it in the cart that the ground shipping is $60 something bucks more rather than the $375 price.

No, it shows up in your cart. Unless they are doing a special that specifically applies to the SS Yoke then it isn't eligible for free shipping. A lot of stuff doesn't qualify.

If i ever get rid of my monster rack and find a good power tower , i would try get some thing like this made by local welder at 72" height. Over all height of 54" or so seem to be little short for SQ and OHP .

Only thing you would need a rack is for pull ups and hanging stuff.

Thanks man, the "Cyber Monday" front page advertising is kinda cryptic (nothing new coming from Elitefts), I guess $66 ground shipping compensates the $50 off of it.

It's basically on apparel type stuff. I wish they would be more clear on that because it is very confusing.
