Fitness Gifts For The Christmas Holiday

I am sure a lot of people would love a brand new squat rack for christmas (maybe not), but if your like me, and your pockets are not deep enough, there are still some awesome affordable fitness gifts out there for a healthy Christmas!

Here are some healthy gifts you can get people for christmas that will be a boost to their fitness goals!

Polar Fs1 Heart Rate Monitor

You can buy this trusty little watch on amazon for around 40 dollars. This is the same watch I use, and its a great gift, there are so many benefits to knowing what your heart rate is! It allows me to train in certain zones with accuracy, so I know if I am working above, or below anaerobic threshold, tempo work, cardiac work, etc… its very useful! I do not opt for the fancier versions, this one will get the job done.

Hand Blender

I dont know what I would do without this, just a scoop of protein, some creatine, and water; blend with the hand blender and your good to go! I used to mix my protein up with a spoon, but that made a mess. The hand blender makes it easy to just grab, mix, and go.

Wrist Wraps

I bought some wrist wraps over at elitefts.com for 16.95. You can never get enough wrist support! It may add some weight to your lifts to, for me it did! I love these, and most people I train are worried about their wrists, so this is one of my first recommendations.

Lifting Belt

You know, some people say you shouldnt use a belt, well… I say thats crazy, especially as the weight gets up there, you wont find me squatting sets of 500 without one! I would recommend looking at some APT belts (they got some pretty snazzy colors) those hold up nicely, but if your not looking for a forty dollar belt, at least pick one up at the local wal-mart. We all got to start somewhere.

Protein Powder

The other day a guy in the gym asked me if I take protein after I work out…OF COURSE I DO! You should as well! Check out proteinfactory.com, they sell 5 pound bags for around 30$.

Lifting shoes

I like to do shock training, plyos, jump training, whatever you want to call it, as well as lift, and run. I would pick up two types of shoes, first a good pair of cross trainers, you can find a good pair over at nike.com, or check out some of their outlet stores. You should also look into a pair of lifting shoes, but these can be a bit pricey, and a pair of 20$ Chucks work well enough, especially for general lifting purposes. If your serious about getting the most out of every rep on the squat, good lifting shoes can help.

Bands

Look, I am tired of seeing men and women doing dips, and pullups on that assisted machine; a pure waste of time! Try buying some green, red, etc bands over at elitefts.com. This way all you got to do is throw bands of varying degrees of difficulty over the top of the pull-up bar and it will assist you, until you dont need them anymore!
Lifting glovesI dont use gloves, but most women do. If your a guy and your lady is using every excuse in the book to get out of lifting, it might be wise to buy her some cute gloves, it will make her feel more legit.

George Foreman Grill

Quick, easy, and good for cutting weight. I dont know how many times I have been trying to get to the single digit bodyfat %, and this thing saved me. I would wake up, only have 30 minutes to get dressed, and go to work, and I could throw 2-3 chicken breasts on this, and be good for lunch, and a mid afternoon snack.

Ab-Wheel

I am not into a lot of the gimmicks out there concerning getting a six pack, because I know 100% of getting a six pack is losing the fat first, but I do believe the ab-wheel helps strengthen abdominals, and I am a fan of that. You can find these for cheap to, just go to wal mart, and when your real good at it, try it without putting your knees on the ground.

A Health food Cookbook

It will give a bit of guidance on what type of food can be made while still living a healthy lifestyle.

Anyway, hope these ideas helped. These fitness gifts would be great to make the holidays healthy!
