Fitness content is native to TikTok — workout demos, transformation arcs, and recovery routines are already what the algorithm rewards. We run 400+ fitness creators across equipment, athleisure, and recovery, with briefs built around in-use demos and economics tuned to the category’s split return profile (8% equipment / 18–20% apparel).
Fitness splits into two different businesses: equipment (low returns, demo-led, gifting spikes) and athleisure (apparel-class returns, size-exchange logistics, style-led content). Agencies that run one playbook across both bleed margin. We brief, fulfill, and bid differently per sub-vertical.
Fitness converts on in-use proof: the band that doesn’t snap, the shaker that doesn’t leak, the leggings squat-test. Briefs are built around use-case demos, not unboxings — proven across 400+ fitness creators.
Equipment runs ~8% returns; athleisure runs 18–20%. We model margin per SKU class, set commission tiers accordingly (15–18% TAP), and never let apparel return rates eat equipment profits.
The 30-day challenge and routine-stack formats drive the strongest repeat reach in the category. We program creator cohorts around recurring series, not one-off posts.
Fitness has two super-peaks: New Year resolution season and Q4 gifting. We pre-build creative inventory 6 weeks out and scale GMV Max into both windows.
Resistance bands, adjustable weights, compact gear. $20–80 ASP, low returns, demo-led. The strongest fitness sub-vertical on the platform.
Style + squat-proof content. Apparel-class returns (18–20%) mean FBT exchanges and size guides are make-or-break.
Massage guns, foam rollers, compression. $30–120 ASP, satisfying-content potential, gifting spikes.
Sub-$25 impulse buys with strong bundle potential alongside supplement cross-sells.
Straps, grips, belts — technical content angles for serious lifters, high niche loyalty.
Many fitness brands carry consumables. We run those SKUs on our supplements playbook — 22% TAP norms and subscribe-and-save.
