'ZDNET Recommends': What exactly does it mean?
ZDNET's recommendations are based on many hours of testing, research, and comparison shopping. We gather data from the best available sources, including vendor and retailer listings as well as other relevant and independent reviews sites. And we pore over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the products and services we’re assessing.
When you click through from our site to a retailer and buy a product or service, we may earn affiliate commissions. This helps support our work, but does not affect what we cover or how, and it does not affect the price you pay. Neither ZDNET nor the author are compensated for these independent reviews. Indeed, we follow strict guidelines that ensure our editorial content is never influenced by advertisers.
ZDNET's editorial team writes on behalf of you, our reader. Our goal is to deliver the most accurate information and the most knowledgeable advice possible in order to help you make smarter buying decisions on tech gear and a wide array of products and services. Our editors thoroughly review and fact-check every article to ensure that our content meets the highest standards. If we have made an error or published misleading information, we will correct or clarify the article. If you see inaccuracies in our content, please report the mistake via this form.

We've made our TVs, watches, and phones smart -- why shouldn't our mirrors help us achieve fitness goals, too?

The mirror offers more than 10,000 different workouts and features special classes with Pure Barre, Rumble, AKT, and other major brands.

You can expect a -5% to 20% incline, and it comes with a free year of JRNY membership -- an extra $149 value.

Peloton may have just released a rowing machine, but you don't need to spend thousands of dollars to work every muscle group in your body. The ProForm rowing machine is an excellent piece of equipment that can help whip you into shape this holiday season. It comes with a tablet holder, so you can mount your own tablet or smartphone to follow along with your favorite routines. It operates on a steel rail, and you can conveniently store it away after you finish a workout -- making it an excellent option if you need to save space.
This weighted fit hoop takes hula hooping to a whole other level, and it's currently discounted by 50% off the original retail price this month. The hoop weights three pounds, which adds resistance when you use it. It comes in eight different colors, and you can adjust the number of knots to fit your waistline. Plus, you can lengthen or shorten the weighted rope based on your skill level.
If you miss curling dumbbells and using the pull-down bar at your local gym, the Bowflex PR1000 is for you. This piece of equipment brings the entire gym to your home, because the PR1000 is a 25-in-1 strength workout machine.
