Be present this Christmas, check these ideas out.

Tis’ the season for giving. Looking for the perfect gift for a friend or family member who happens to be a fitness buff? No fear, we’re here with a list that Santa would approve of! You’re bound to find something that would make a good fit for them. #hohoho 

 

Wrap your head around this

Many people enjoy working out to music, be it dance, pop or even wrap (geddit?). Why not get them a pair of amazing headphones? Go for wireless ones so that there’s less getting in the way of a workout – like the ones from JBL.

The company has teamed up with Under Armour, bringing together their amazing technology with the latter’s fitness know-how. You’ll want to check out the Under Armour True Wireless Flash.  

 

Sleigh down the mat

A yoga mat is a really practical and versatile gift to get someone, whether they are a newbie or a seasoned exercise aficionado. The best thing about them is that they are meant for more than just yoga – they are useful for stretching exercises, routines that strengthen your core, and if you get the right thickness, provide good support for movements that involve jumping. You can find a variety of them at any good sports stores. Why not opt for one that comes in a handy bag so that it can be used at home and just as easily transported to the gym? #switchitup

 

These bells don’t jingle

Mark the weight of your friendship in kilograms! One great addition to any home gym is kettlebells; they can be used to work out different parts of the body and the best thing is, they are small and don’t take up much space. If you can identify the appropriate weight for your friend, then you really just need one. Alternatively, get a couple in different sizes so that there are more routines they can work out to.

 

Light up the wrist

If you’re buying for someone really special, then there can be no better gift than a Fitbit. It doesn’t matter if they are a beginner or someone who’s dedicated their life to sports and exercise. Fitbit has a variety of wrist-based wearables and something from their tracker range would be ideal. Check out the new Fitbit Inspire 2, which serves as a health and fitness tracker and also captures heart rate. It comes with one-year access to Fitbit Premium, which has some great tools you can tap into. This tracker is snow joke, folks!

 

Put your stuffing

For a gift that is both practical and stylish, consider the Nike Brasilia Convertible Duffel Bag/Backpack. The bag is spacious and will fit almost all the gear one could possibly need for a good workout, be it home equipment or when packing for the gym. Shiny exterior aside, what we like about this beauty is that you can carry it like a duffel bag or transform it into a backpack.
