10 Holiday Gift Ideas for Fitness Enthusiasts 2022

If your friend or loved one has been looking for some athletic wear, look no further! P’tula has great options from performance to lounge and from menswear to anything for the ladies! They have amazing quality clothing that works with any size or needs and are flattering for a ton of body shapes and sizes.  They have performance to lounge leggings and lower to higher support sports bras that are still cute and flattering!  Plus some amazingly soft and comfortable loungewear and men’s options. You can find a few items for them if you know their size or get a gift card instead. 

Use code LAURA at checkout to save money and to be entered into a monthly giveaway! 

After struggling for years to find headphones that stay in my ears, I found ESC sounds. I can wear these while doing pull ups, handstands, running, and flipping without them coming out! My only issue is I keep misplacing one earbud when I’m an idiot and don’t put it in the case right away. 🤦‍♀️ These are more reasonably priced than some other headphones as well, plus code LauraK10 will give you 10% off!

Bands are always a good thing to have around.  They don’t take too much room, they’re versatile, and you can still get a good workout in!  Rubberbanditz has great quality bands at all different resistances and lengths.  Use code LAURA10 for 10% off your order!

• BaseBar or BigBar – the BaseBar is a portable pull up bar that has 2 adjustable heights.  The Big Bar is a bit more sturdy and goes up higher, but isn’t as portable. The BaseBar can be slid behind a shelf or against a wall and the BaseBar or BigBar can be stored under the bed easily if you’re short on space!
• BaseBench or BaseBench Pro– A mini bench attached to a platform that also comes with two bands.  The bench has adjustable heights so it can be used for things from hip thrusts to nordic hamstring curls.  It can be lowered enough to fit under a bed for storage.  I wouldn’t necessarily use it for barbell hip thrusts, but it’s a great home workout tool!
• StrongBlocks – if you’re looking for yoga blocks that also can be mini parallettes, these are your 2 in 1 workout tool!  They’re a go to for me for travel and great for small for apartment living, and very versatile!  These are one of their more budget friendly options too! 
• B-Bars – these are their parallel bars that are adjustable to 2 heights.  They’re not quite as portable/easy to adjust as they advertise on their site, but if your plan is to leave them up and keep it put together, then these are a great tool to have!  They’re sturdy for things from dips to pull ups to even handstands!  Obviously, if you’re giving them to a gymnast, they’re going to have some limitations, but they’re great for basic strength work! These are one of my husband’s favorites!

• BaseBlocks – these canes are easily adjustable in height, but do not adjust width.  They can be used for things like dips, handstands, Australian rows, etc. and are easily slid against a wall or under the bed for storage.
• These can also come in sets if you’d like to get a combo of them and save a little more money (I don’t believe my code applies to the sets, but feel free to try it out)!

• Rogue Fitness – their quality is impeccable and their products come with a pretty solid warrantee. 
• Lacertosus Equipment – an Italian company that makes high quality at home workout equipment.  They do not ship worldwide, but worth considering if they ship where you are
• Titan fitness (budget option) – this is the brand of pull up bar that I have in my apartment and have had for a few years.  It is a good budget option that does the job, but if you’re looking for something that will last for years, check out Rogue or Lacertosus!

• Rogue Fitness – although a little more on the pricy side, their barbells have a lifetime warrantee.  I splurged on my barbell when I first started my gym and have been very pleased with the purchase!
• Used barbell – if you’re looking for a budget option, check your local facebook marketplace, craigslist, etc. You can often find a used barbell for a lot cheaper, but you may have to be patient! Be careful giving these as a gift depending on who you are giving them to, as the condition won’t be as good as new!

Weights can add up in price quickly, but often times there will be some available on facebook marketplace or craigslist or even a local shop.  There are obviously brand names where you can get them new like Rogue Fitness, American Barbell, or Lacertosus Equipment, but depending on the person, used ones are a lot cheaper and work the same way as new ones! From my experience, it was a lot more challenging to find bumper plates used vs. standard plates, so it may be worth getting those new depending on your time crunch or budget.

If the person you’re gifting to already has dumbbells and wants to convert it to kettlebells or even a barbell, I know there are options out there that attach dumbbells to a tool to make them swingable for kettlebells or attach them to the end of a bar to similar a barbell. I personally have never used them, but they could be a fun budget option as a gift too!

For those that are into climbing, ninja training, or just want to play and train their grip, grip options are a fun thing to try! They’re great for travel as they can be hung on a tree branch or playground in a pinch, plus give you a little extra challenge with your grip on upper body days! I have some from MoveStrong and Metolius Climbing that I have found to be very good quality with years of use!

• Tennis ball, lacrosse ball, or peanut
• Foam roll
• Oil diffuser
• Herbal tea
• Water bottle &/or travel mug
• Yoga mat
• Anti-sitting mobility program

• Becoming a Supple Leopard
• Rebuilding Milo
• Anatomy Trains
• Any of the BaseBlocks Books – I personally co-wrote the BaseBlocks Lower Body Book and BaseBlocks Core Book (which each include multiple full workout programs using the BaseBlocks equipment)

• Individualized training programs based on their goals, equipment they have, their current level, with basically any individualization you need from frequency of check ins, form feedback videos, access to videos of each exercise, etc.
• Skill sessions – so if they’re just working on getting over a little plateau with working on a skill (e.g. handstands, muscle ups, press handstands, etc.), I also offer skill sessions where in a one hour zoom call, we take a look at where they are with a skill and then come up with drills, exercises, and techniques to help break through that plateau to progress that skill faster than they could on their own! 
• You can always pick up the pre-made programs here where you have options from skills like pull ups, handstands, and muscle ups, to prehab/health programs like the anti-sitting mobility program, shoulder prehab program, and hip prehab programs.

• A planner – I personally use the Start Planner and it has been a game changer for me!
• A pen/pencil &/or highlighters
• A mug
• A local coffee – I may be biased here, but I personally love my Paradigm of Perfection Coffee where part of the proceeds go to the Kyle Pease Foundation to support athletes with disabilities participate in sports!

Kombucha is fermented tea and has a ton of health benefits and is also good for the gut! So if they’re into a healthy lifestyle and looking for a hobby this may be a good option! There is definitely a learning curve, but it’s totally worth it! I personally have Fermentaholics starter kit and bottling kit. They’re great to start, but once you get going, I personally like the larger bottles of 32 oz vs the 16 oz that come in the bottling kit.

• A coffee mug
• Local coffee(s)
• Creamer
• A nice grinder or coffee maker (if you want to be fancy)
