The festive season is well and truly upon us and Christmas day is just around the corner. Finding the perfect present for friends and family members can be tricky, so we’re here to help! We’ve come up with a health and fitness inspired Christmas wish list that will be sure to give you some great Christmas gift ideas for your fitness loving loved ones.
1. Goal Setting Fitness Journal
With the New Year nearly here, it’s the perfect time to set new fitness goals. A fitness journal is a great way to keep people on track and help your friend stay motivated.
2. Beats Wireless Headphones
A workout is better with music, and what better way to listen to pumping tunes than with some Beats wireless headphones. Move around freely with no wires attached, and get the best sound on the market.
3. Runners
Nothing beats a fresh pair of kicks, so you can’t go wrong with gifting your loved one with a new pair of runners. If you know they have a favourite brand, stick with that, sneaker heads can be fussy, but if you need some ideas, Nike’s Epic React Flyknit, Adidas’ UltraBoost and Asics’ GEL Kayano are all great buys.
4. Meal Prep Containers
A simple, but practical gift idea that will be well used on a daily basis. This set includes five reusable containers with three divided sections that have been created to provide organisation, flexibility and convenience for meal preppers to transport their meals safely and securely.
5. TriggerPoint Foam Roller
Recovery is key after a tough workout, and the range of foam rollers from TriggerPoint will help release muscle tension and tightness and get your friend back to feeling fresh in no time.
6. Stack 52 Fitness Dice Box Set
A great stocking stuffer for your gym loving friend. Designed by a fitness military expert, the fitness dice is a fun bodyweight exercise workout game. No equipment or planning is required, just roll the dice and play the game!
7. Active Wear
You can never have enough active wear, and Stylerunner has a great range of both workout gear and off-duty sports luxe attire. They also have E-Gift vouchers available if you aren’t 100% sure on what size or style to buy.
8. Smart Watch – FitBit or Apple Watch

9. S’Well Water Bottle
Stainless steel water bottles are all the rage at the moment, and they are perfect for using in summer as they stay cool for hours. S’Well has a huge range of styles and funky colours to choose from.
10. Muscle Recovery Bath Salts
There’s nothing more relaxing than a bath, and when it also helps your muscles recover, who could not love this product. With an invigorating blend of pure magnesium chloride flakes and 100% natural essential oils, it is perfect to use post workout.
11. Portable Resistance Training Kit
A great pick for someone that enjoys a home workout, or likes to be able to take something with them on holiday to keep active while they’re away. This resistance kit easily attaches to a door, and can be customised by adjusting the resistance.
12. Massage Voucher
If you’re friend/family member is someone that is always on the go, help them relax and relieve muscle tension with a voucher for a massage.
13. Run Fast, Eat Slow Recipe Book
Run Fast, Eat Slow is a book full of recipes that Shalane Flanagan ate while training for her 2017 New York City Marathon historic win. In the book, Shalane teams up with chef Elyse Kopecky to showcase delicious, flavoursome, whole food recipes that’ll satisfy your friend’s cravings and be healthy at the same time.
14. Lululemon Yoga Mat
For your yoga loving friend, a new mat is the perfect gift idea. The Lululemon range is massive, with multiple prints, sizes and widths. They are made with a polyurethane top layer that absorbs moisture, so you will never lose grip during those sweaty practices.
