Fitness For Fitness Lover

For the fitness lover

Do you have someone in your life who is totally obsessed with health and fitness? If so- this gift guide is calling their name! I have compiled a list of my absolute favorite health/fitness things; from workout clothes, to sneakers, to my favorite headphones, gym accessories, and even a few food items, so lets jump right in!

Hip circles & resistance bands- probably my most favorite gym accessory because they are so small and compact, but really pack a punch! They intensive any workout and I love that if I don’t want to go to the gym, I can use the bands in place of most exercises that require dumbbells! The difference between the two: A hip circle has a lot more resistance where as a resistance band set you will get a variety of different strengths, but they tear and stretch easier. You may wanna grab a foam roller while you’re at it cause the booty is going to be S O R E !

My favorite sports bras are from Forever21. They fit great around my boobs and you can’t beat the price. My only quam with them is that if you get a light colored bra, like baby pink, it will fade pretty quickly. Other than that, I love them. Here are some of my faves: 

I live in LA so it’s pretty warm all year round, which is why I like to wear shorts when I workout. But every pair I would get would ride up my butt every 5 seconds.. until I found these and these. The first pair have more compression, but I love the second ones just for lounging around

Lets talk sneakers…. I love sneakers. Sneakers and me.. bff. But that bff title doesn’t come easy. They have to be super comfortable on both the heel AND the ankle. They have to withstand many hiit workouts. They have to be cute, obvi. And they can’t be hella expensive. You wont catch me spending 200$ on trainers. Here are my top training shoe picks:

Adjustable weights: These are something actually on my xmas list! My parents had a pair at their house when I lived in NY and now that Jon and I have sized down to a smaller apartment, I desperately want these! Right now we have a set of 10 dumbbells and they take up so much room on our balcony and I trip over them constantly. Whats great about the adjustable weights is that it’s just ONE set of weights, but you can adjust the weight to anywhere from 5 pounds, up to 45! So, Jon and I can both use them! It’s way more cost effective (and space efficient) than a full set of dumbbells! 

Electronics: My apple watch is something that I use daily and I would be lost without it! It has so many different health features, it is the perfect gift! In the same realm of being lost without something is definitely my wireless headphones. They have amazing sound quality and they never fall out of my ears. Also they have a 1 year warranty if anything happens to them! 

If your girl likes to feel good from the inside out- these next few products are just the thing she will love. Bulletproof protein bars are some of my favorite on the market. As well as these no cow bars. I love the ingredients and they actually taste good too! Below are some other powders and coffees/tea/hot cocao that i’ve been loving! 

My favorite way to workout for the last year or so has been BEACHBODY on demand workouts! A year membership is less than 100$, and you get access to hundred upon hundreds of fitness videos ranging from HIIT, yoga, pilates, dance. So whatever mood you’re feeling, they have a workout for it. And for less than 9$ a month…. you literally could not go wrong. 

Last but not least- If you’re really stumped and can’t think of anything to get her, I know just the thing- a FAB FIT FUN membership. It is by far my favorite of all of the subscription boxes I’ve ever signed up for. I love that it comes every 4 months instead of every single month. And you get such a good assortment of things inside, its WELL worth the 39.99 price tag. Each box is valued at like 200$, so if you like getting a deal like I know I do, this gift is the perfect one.
