Spring is a prime time for starting a new workout routine, and no wonder. The combination of longer daylight hours, warmer weather and blossoming nature can be a powerful push to start afresh. Not only that, but springtime is also a great time to do it on a budget. March sales are filled with deals on running shoes, exercise equipment, fitness trackers, workout clothing, sports earbuds, and many other fitness essentials.

One of the biggest shopping events of the season is undoubtedly Amazon's spring sale, and while it is a great place for fitness enthusiasts to hunt for savings, it may not always be the best place to do so. Whether it is a premium Garmin watch or one of the best rowing machines, sometimes better deals are found elsewhere — at Best Buy or brand websites, for example.

✅Best Buy: Save up to 50% on smartwatches, headphones and more
✅Walmart: Health and fitness essentials for less
✅Target: Discounts on fitness kits and sportswear
✅HOKA: Save up to 30% off on premium footwear
✅Adidas: Extra 30% running shoes
✅Nike: Over 3,000 products on sale
✅Dick's Sporting Goods: Huge savings on exercise equipment
✅Garmin: Save up to 50% on watches and bike computers
