5 Christmas Presents for Fitness Lovers

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Exeter chapter.

Christmas is approaching fast! Don’t wait until the last minute to get gifts for your loved ones. Here are a few ideas of all those fitness lovers in your life.

  1. A Foam Roller

Every fitness lover knows that with exercise comes sore muscles. Do your loved one a favor and provide them with the tool to ease their stiffness. A foam roller is the perfect way to avoid crawling down the stairs after leg day, and they come in lots of snazzy colours.

Cost: £10-25

  1. Workout Clothing

Just one glance at Forum Hill and it’s pretty obvious everyone loves workout gear. For one it’s extremely comfortable, it is also incredibly flattering AND there are so many amazing designs and patterns. What’s not to love?! Some brands to check out include Lorna Jane, Nike, and Onzie

Cost: £15-75

  1. BBG Guide

Kayla Itsines revolutionary workout plan makes a great Christmas gift for anyone that is looking for a short and effective exercise guide. Each Bikini Body Guide workout is only 28 minutes, and you can do them at home (you can even do them in your pajamas – we don’t judge!). 

Cost: Guide from £35; App from £80

  1. Fitbit

What better gift for your sporty friend than a high-performance fitness tracker? The Fitbit displays steps taken, distance travelled, calories burned, stairs climbed and active minutes. It has a sleek and smart design, and comes available in four different colors.

Cost: £50-160

  1. Active Retreat

Ok, this is definitely quite an extravagant gift, which we suggest you reserve for your dearest friends and family members (or you could gift it to yourself… We know we would!). An active retreat combines a beautiful location, delicious food, and fitness fun. These escapes have popped up all over the world: Bali, the Maldives, Costa Rica, and the list goes on…

Cost: £1500-2500
