Black Friday Home Gym Checklist for Australia: 9 Things to Check Before You Buy
Last updated: 13 November 2026
This is a checklist to run before you buy home gym equipment this Black Friday. Black Friday is Friday 27 November 2026; the late-November shopping window runs through to our last order date: Thursday 11 December. Current FitnessLab prices are listed below. Shipping is calculated at checkout, and bulky items may go by freight.
Before you buy: 9 checks
- Weight per hand vs combined. A 24kg pair is two dumbbells, each adjustable up to 24kg (48kg combined). A 40kg pair is two dumbbells, each adjustable up to 40kg (80kg combined). Choose by the heaviest weight you lift in one hand. Browse the adjustable dumbbells collection.
- Is it in stock right now, in your colour? Stock moves. Open the product page and confirm the colour and availability before you order. Do not rely on this page alone for stock.
- How it is delivered. Bulky items may go by freight to a ground-level kerbside or driveway. Drivers may not carry items upstairs or assemble them. See our shipping policy for the full conditions.
- Delivery time vs your date. FitnessLab estimates 7–16 business days from order confirmation. These are estimates, not guarantees. Last order date: Thursday 11 December. We do not promise delivery before Christmas or by any other date.
- Space. Measure floor space and ceiling height. Each 24kg dumbbell is about 43 x 21 x 21cm without its holder (43 x 21 x 23cm with the holder). Each 40kg dumbbell is 45 x 25 x 25cm without its holder (55 x 29 x 30cm with the holder). The 70kg multi-station lists 97 x 53 x 225cm on its product page; check the product images before you order.
- What the weight capacity rates. Read the capacity figure on each product page as written. The FID weight bench states a 250kg Weight-Bearing Capacity. Cable stations and racks also list their own capacity figures on their product pages.
- Assembly. Benches and racks usually need some assembly. A manual is included. Allow time to put the gear together after it arrives.
- Returns. Change-of-mind returns are available within 30 days of receipt, subject to approval, plus your rights under Australian Consumer Law. Email hello@fitnesslabstore.com.au first; do not send items back without approval. Black Friday orders use the same terms as usual. See our refund policy.
- Total at checkout. Shipping is calculated at checkout from the product, postcode, weight and dimensions. Compare the checkout total, not only the item price on this page.
