Best Gifts For Health and Fitness Fanatics 2016
Looking for the perfect gift for your fitness fanatic family member? Or ultra zen girlfriend? Or super sporty sister? I’ve rounded up my top holiday gift picks for everyone on your list! Read on for the best gifts to give your health and fitness nuts.
Help someone start their New Years resolutions strong and give the gift of balance with my book, Balanced Body Breakthrough. 278 pages full support to help readers clarify values, create a plan and set smart goals, manage time, feel healthy, get fit, and enjoy life. The perfect resource for a new year full of wellness. Paperback on amazon or Inkshares.
High quality, delicious protein powder! Vega is my personal favorite, an all natural plant based protein that tastes amazing. A Vega shake a day keeps the doctor away! Try Vega Greens in french vanilla or Vega sport in chocolate. I gift my brother a tub every year. https://myvega.com/
Fashionable, functional, feel good flats for your Fitnessista friend. Give the gift of happy feet with a super chic pair of Rothy’s the seamless lifestyle flat made from 100% recycled water bottles. The soft fiber becomes a breathable upper that won’t lose its shape and wicks away moisture. Also big plus: they are machine washable! I have four pairs (when you know what works you buy them all right?!) and they keep my feet looking good on the go without getting sore. Check out the point in camo red or the flat in black.

THE MAT. It’s the only yoga mat you’ll ever need. Reversible and designed with extra cushion, this high quality yoga mat will last you for years of sweaty yoga class. I’ve had mine since 2011 and it’s still just as fabulous. The Reversible Mat 5mm at lululemon.com
Epsom Salt Bath Kit. I take an epsom salt bath multiple times a week to soothe sore muscles and de-stress. This Grace and Stella kit is the perfect price and has so many delightful scents. Read how to take an epsom salt bath here.
Blender to Go. I’ve had a magic bullet blender for 4 years and it is my life saver! Perfect to whip up a quick smoothie or pack with you to stay healthy on the go (totally travelable!) Try my simple apple protein smoothie or get festive with my pumpkin pie protein smoothie.
Yoga Toes. Treat your feet with yoga toes, my latest obsession. Yoga toes fit between and beneath toes; gently spreading them apart and away from the balls of your feet – providing even more benefit than walking barefoot. By improving toes and feet, Yoga Toes bring better balance and posture to the entire body. When you put them on it feels like a massage – I wear mine every night in my pajamas.
Fitbit. Help your friends start 2017 on the right foot. Check out the new Blaze and Alta which receive text and call notifications. Shop all styles and steps at: https://www.fitbit.com/home
Candle set. I love receiving candles as gifts! One of those things I always want but never want to spent money on. This spa set would go great with that bubble bath.
A new pair of New Balance light weight running shoes. New Balance is dedicated to helping athletes achieve their goals. It’s been their mission for more than a century to focus on research and development. It’s why they don’t design products to fit an image. They design them to fit. New Balance is driven to make the finest shoes for the same reason athletes lace them up: to achieve the very best. And thats exactly what these shoes have done for me. So light I feel like I’m walking on sunshine.
Spa day at Solage in Calistoga. Treat a loved one with a retreat to this heavenly resort. Gift a massage, facial, day at the spa, or overnight stay. Read about my past adventures relaxing in Calistoga here. Reservations and booking at: https://solage.aubergeresorts.com/
You can do it coffee mug. Ok this is too cute. I want this in my morning cup!
Yoga Tune Up Therapy Balls. Because everybody needs a pair 😉 Then you and your friends can join me for all my rolling videos on youtube! PARTY.
Compression Socks. An active person will love receiving a pair of high performance compression socks. Why? The faster they can recover, the faster they’ll be back at it again! I have hot pink – they are the best!
Wireless Headphones. These sweat-proof, lightweight, wireless headphones will let you blast motivational tunes from the cardio machines to weight room, without that annoying wire getting in the way.
Kale Sweatshirt. For the health nut kale lover in your world.
Thule Urban Glide Sport Stroller. Perfect for your parent friends who want to keep up with their walking/jogging routine.
TRX
If you have someone in your life who LOVES to workout outside of the gym (at home, in the park or in hotels while traveling), consider gifting them a personal TRX. It comes in a handy travel pouch along with instructions and workout suggestions. It’s light weight and compact enough to throw into a purse, book bag or carryon.
Membership or Healthy Grocery Products from Thrive Market. Im obsessed with this website and it keeps me well fueled in the best way. Thrive Market is an online retailer offering thousands of the best-selling healthy, natural products from your favorite brands at wholesale prices. For every paying member, a membership is given to a low-income American family. Check them out here.
