Ideas for Your Gift List
A thoughtful gift can send a powerful message of support about fitness to anyone you love, regardless of where they are on their journeys, newbies and veterans alike.
Use this list to start brainstorming ideas that will give them a pat on the back or maybe even expose them to something new to try.
If Santa can get in shape, then anyone can!
- Protein Snacks. We need more protein as we age, and that can be especially challenging for people on Wegovy, Ozempic or similar weight-loss drugs. Help make this easy with healthy protein snacks, like box on Amazon or protein shakes/mixes that fit their dietary preferences, from milk-based to vegan.
- Apple Watch Ultra 2. This one sports a black titanium case and has all the latest connectivity, health, and safety features, plus the most accurate GPS in a sports watch. Plus, admit it: This just looks awesome.
- Athleisure Wear. A lot has changed since the days of grey sweats and old T-shirts. Help your loved one “level up” their fashion game with sleek, moisture-wicking tights, tops, socks and delicates from Lululemon on the higher end and Target on the lower.
- Pickleball Set. The game that keeps on growing … and shows no sign of slowing down in popularity. This set from Nettie comes with four paddles, four balls, four sweatbands, and free shipping.
- Mix It Up with Socks. Seriously, even plain socks are great gifts because you need more when you’re working out regularly. Plus, the variety is wide, from no-skid bottoms to charity-based Bombas to novelty socks with funny sayings like, “Do you even lift, Bro?”
- The Workout Dress. This might be what Audrey Hepburn would’ve worn to a Jane Fonda workout class: a little black dress that’s sporty, flattering, and functional for all kinds of exercise.
- Blue Light Glasses. This is a low-cost item with plenty of fashion options. Take a look here. The idea is to give our eyes a break from the hours we spend reading on electronic screens. It can also improve sleep.
- Bala Bangles. Ankle and wrist straps add a little weight to any activity, and this brand has caught on with its fashionable approach. $55.
- Personal Power Plate. No gift list would be complete without at least one high-ticket item. This one lets you sample high-vibration technology that supposedly improves your workout. It’s 25 percent off now in a pre-Black Friday promotion. $1,421.25.
- Lessons, classes or private training sessions. Give a new experience or expert coaching. Talk to us about options here or locally that would be fun.
Of course, the best gift is your time and attention. So, go on a walk or bike ride with people you love, or whatever activity appeals to you. Come see us to see how to make next year the fittest and best yet. Happy Holidays!
