Scheduled to ship in early 2025, Amp finally announces pricing for its debut home gym
Home gyms of the (near) future will be compact, AI-powered, and easily accessible. At its core, Amp is a new home fitness device that is currently available for pre-sale.
The fitness brand recently found a fan in actor Terry Crews, who promoted the amp in a TikTok video.
Built with simplicity in mind, Amp features a minimum weight of 5 pounds and the flexibility to increase digital resistance up to 100 pounds, allowing users to adjust their workouts in real time. You also have the option to manually adjust the resistance by turning a dial.
Three smart resistance modes are available: Fixed, Banded, and Amplified. Fixed mode maintains a constant weight throughout the range of motion, while the band increases resistance as the user moves away from the starting position. In amplification mode, resistance is added when returning to the starting point.

“I have always had a passion for fitness and technology,” says Amp founder and entrepreneur Shalom Meckenzie. “My vision was to combine the two and create an innovative solution that empowers users to achieve their goals while being accessible to all. I look forward to seeing this vision come to fruition. I’m really looking forward to it.”
The accompanying Amp app guides you through engaging, gamified, and personalized workouts with a social component where users can participate in challenges and compete on leaderboards. Amp Gym comes with a free one-year subscription to the app. After the first year, the app is available for $23 per month. The app is currently only available on iOS, but the fitness company says Android compatibility will be coming soon.
The Amp system ($1,795) is scheduled for delivery in early 2025 (perfect for your New Year’s fitness resolutions) and can be reserved with a $99 deposit. Price includes delivery, installation, and accessories such as T-bar, 2 ankle straps, handle, dual handles, and rope.
