Whether you are shopping for your sister, best friend, or girlfriend, a thoughtful gift that enhances her healthy lifestyle will be well received. From the yogi to the CrossFit guru, this list will help you put something under the tree for every kind of fitness fanatic on your list.
Fitness Gifts for Her:
3. Fitness Trackers
A fitness tracker helps monitor her workout progress by recording her steps, calories, and heart rate. Some models also encourage her with prompts to "keep moving" throughout the day. For all-day activity tracking with a heart rate monitor and GPS, look for a fitness smartwatch. If she only needs a tracker to count steps and give helpful reminders, a basic fitness wristband will do the job.
4. Gym Bags
A gym bag is a practical accessory that is great for transporting her essential items to and from the gym, pool, or track. If she attends a workout class a couple of times a week, find a small, simple bag to hold her items. For daily gym trips, she may prefer a larger bag with multiple compartments to organize and transport her necessities.
5. Foam Rollers
Foam rolling is an everyday practice for people of all fitness levels. This practice breaks up muscle knots, allowing muscles to heal and relax after workouts. She'll happily use her new foam roller daily to apply pressure to specific points on her body to recover muscle fibers that were stressed during her workout.
6. Athletic Shoes
Whether she runs marathons or completes her workouts at home, your giftee's athletic shoes should be replaced every three to six months. Give her feet the support and cushioning they need with a new pair of athletic shoes. Choose from a variety of colors and designs to find the perfect match for her fitness lifestyle.
10. Yoga Mats
Whether she's into yoga or not, she'll appreciate the versatility of a yoga mat. The primary function of a yoga mat is to provide better traction while performing yoga poses. But it can also be used for general fitness activities that take place on hard floors. Mats offer extra cushioning whether she is stretching or exercising.
