Fitness Gift Ideas for Anyone Who Loves to Be Active

What’s left to buy your health junkie and outdoor enthusiast friends? When they’ve completed their at-home gym, live full-time in athleisure, and have everything they ever need to stay healthy, it’s tough to choose a gift that won’t collect dust.

Luckily, here’s a roundup of gift ideas from healthy snacks to the coolest fitness gadgets that are sure to impress and get them moving.


Face Mask

With the temperatures dropping, a face mask is not only necessary to protect against exposure to COVID-19, but also exposure to the environment. Safe+Mate x Case-Mate’s lightweight and breathable masks are reusable and easy to breathe in, which makes it ideal for running and exercise.


Phone Carrier

Do they like to run? Why not get them this phone carrier by LifeProof? They can mount any phone tightly on this armband and easily access it while they run to change music or look up the nearest smoothie place for a post-workout snack. 


All-in-One Gym

If your friends don’t have enough space for an at-home gym, the BOARD30 MINI is the best solution for them. This compact board comes with four resistance tubes, a set of handles, a set of ankle straps, and two flat resistance bands. This allows them to get a full-body workout, including cardio, in just 2 feet of space.


Portable Treadmill

On rainy days when they want to run outside, a portable treadmill is a quick fix for that problem. This one from UMAY easily folds up and can be slipped under a couch or bed so having a tiny living space is no longer an excuse to own one.


Reusable Water Bottle

You can’t complete a workout without staying hydrated. The NAYAD Roamer Bottle and Tumbler are the best options for your friends. These reusable bottles and tumblers are made from BPA-free stainless steel material and feature vacuum insulation technology. It will keep your water cold for hours even after your workout.


Wireless Headphones

Who doesn’t like listening to music when they workout? With these wireless headphones from BOSE, your friends will feel more motivated when your music sounds this good. Featuring water-repellent mesh and a six-hour battery life, these headphones can stay dry in any conditions and take them all the way from warm-up to cool-down.


Weighted Jump Ropes

This sleek weighted jump rope system by Crossrope is the perfect gift for those who don’t have an hour to spare in their busy schedule but still want a good workout. It’s built to help anyone achieve their strength, endurance, and fitness goals. And with its custom workout app, they’ll get access to hundreds of fast and effective workouts wherever they go. 


Fitness Tracker

If your friends are in need of a fitness tracker, one of the most popular ones out there is the Fitbit, with its easy-to-use app. With a fitness tracker, they can track and monitor their movements to ensure they are exercising enough. 


Bath Soak

It’s no secret that muscles get really sore after a tough workout session. Made from eco-certified and organic ingredients, the Pursoma After the Class Bath Soak helps melt tension from the body and muscles. The addition of grounding essential oils also helps ease stress and quiets the mind.


Deep Tissue Massager

One of the most coveted items, Thereagun’s percussive muscle therapy massagers can activate muscles and relieve tension to help your friends recover from a tough workout faster. This three-speed Theragun Mini is way more affordable than previous versions, but it still delivers the same results.


Nap Pillow

Sleep is not only key for mental clarity and general well-being, but it’s also key for weight management and proper immune health. With the Casper Nap Pillow, they can take it with them and snooze wherever they choose. This pillow also comes with a drawstring bag, making it the perfect travel pillow.


Protein Bars

Know someone who enjoys protein bars? Gift them this box of 30 RX Bars. There’s 12g of protein and a handful of core ingredients in every bar, so no matter which flavor they pick, they can feel good about what they’re eating.


Ready-to-Eat Meals

Make meal planning easier by gifting your friends a nine-cup box from Daily Harvest. They’ll get to choose whatever smoothies, bowls, lattes, soups, and bites, so you’ll know they are properly fueled.


Gym Bag

Not many people are using gym bags for the gym right now, but this Dagne Dover Landon Neoprene Carryall Duffle is also perfect for any trips they are taking this season. This versatile bag includes a removable show bag, two pockets for water bottles, and tons of pockets for other workout essentials.


Workout Journal

While there are numerous apps available to track workouts, nothing beats writing it down by hand. Keeping a journal and writing down workouts can help you spot patterns, measure progress, and improve your training. The Lift Log Workout Journal is the perfect little journal to do that.
