Holiday Gift Guide: Ideas For Health & Fitness Enthusiasts


’Tis the season to shop, shop, shop but if you’re still looking for ideas of what to get friends or family, take a look at the list we put together below. These get our stamp of approval for being unique and something that any strength & mobility loving person will enjoy.

Be sure to check below for any deals we were able to find as well. We wanted to put this out before Black Friday so you had a chance to do some research and save!

RESILIENCE CBD: $13 - $40

I know CBD may not be your traditional gift idea but if you're shopping for a unique idea to help that active person in your life recover from tough workouts, we highly recommend the Resilience CBD Sports Cream or their new Bath Bombs to relax those aches and pains away.

CBD products are popping up all over the place and it’s hard to know which brands to trust which is why we've vetted Resilience CBD as #1 because they have the highest quality control around so you know what you're getting. I personally use their products so I can attest to the fact that they do in fact work like a charm.

Learn more in the video below.

WECK METHOD RMT ROPES: $25

These RMT ropes are, in my opinion, one of the most addictive and fun ways to move. If you follow my stories on Instagram you'll see me playing around with these all the time and they've quickly become a favorite for my clients.

You may be thinking "how can playing with ropes give you a workout and be fun?" but I can assure you, after just a few minutes of using these, you’ll have a smile on your face and will be grooving to the rhythm of the ropes hitting the ground.


Steals and Deals

  • Get 10% off when you use code: WMA35

  • PLUS, I’m throwing in a free video series to show you HOW to use these bad boys.

SUNGENOMICS CUSTOM PROBIOTICS: $297

Gut health is such an important part of keeping our body in balance. From low energy, tummy issues, anxiety and sports performance, it all can be affected by your gut health. Here’s the thing though, everyone’s makeup in their gut is different so those probiotics sold in stores, most often aren’t what YOU actually need.

That’s why we love Sungenomics custom probiotics, created based off of what’s in your gut. A few months back I spoke to their Head of Microbiology to see why gut health is so important and it’s a must-see if you’re thinking of giving someone the gift of a healthy microbiome.

You can watch the interview HERE.

GORILLA BOW: $180 - $250

Looks can be deceiving with the Gorilla Bow. It’s actually an awesome way to build strength and get a little variability in your workout, which is key for creating a resilient body. This is one of those pieces of equipment that will work parts of your body you didn't know existed.

I love using this outside while getting my vitamin D or while I'm traveling (they have a travel size!).

Steals and Deals

  • They WILL be having a Black Friday Sale so be sure to sign up for their newsletter so you get the announcement. They also have other promotions throughout the year in case you miss Black Friday.

CLICK HERE to check it out:

 

ALEADER HIITAVE UNISEX MINIMALIST BAREFOOT SHOES*: $36.99

For anyone who goes through shoes quickly and hates dropping $200 on a pair, then this is for you! I’ve tested these over the last few months and let me just say…I’m SO glad I found them!

I was a little skeptical ordering these because I'm really picky and I didn't understand how a shoe that's so inexpensive would last to the demands of me being on my feet all day but let me tell you...I'm never going back to my old brand! These are so comfortable I feel like I'm literally barefoot, they're durable, and a fraction of the cost of most shoes on the market.

Steals and Deals

  • I don’t have a deal on this one however, they’re already a crazy good deal! If you check on Amazon during their Black Friday Sale, they might have a discount.

Check them out HERE (Warning, you’re probably going to want a pair for yourself too!)

 

PROSOURCE FIT 3/4" PUZZLE EXERCISE MAT*: $29.99

If you do any type of at-home exercises like mobility training, pilates or yoga, you may be familiar with the dilemma of having a mat that’s either too narrow or too thin. The struggle has been real on this one. I’ve been searching and searching over the last year for a wide mat that will support my knees, without breaking the bank.

I'm really pumped to share this one with you that I found on Amazon of all places. It’s the same mat I’ve been using in our Kinstretch Online workouts and this thing has lasted through all of the use and abuse I put it through.

Steals and Deals

  • I don’t have a deal on this one, however, it’s already really really inexpensive and if you check on Amazon during their Black Friday Sale, they might have a discount.

DIFFUSER & ESSENTIAL OIL KITS: $15 - $50

Something I think is a really unique gift idea is skipping the scented candle and going for a diffuser and essential oils. Learn more in the video below.

We’ve put together some recommendations that will help you even if you have no idea what to look for when buying oils. Quality is key and we’ve been using a brand for 5+ years, that's not only tested with reports you can see, but also really affordable.

Our Diffuser Pick*

Our Go-To Essential Oils

Quality DOES matter when using essential oils because they’re inhaled and absorbed in your lungs or on your skin. Because it can be tricky to pick oils if you’re not familiar with them, I’d recommend any of the blends you can find HERE.

Just be sure to get the 10ml bottle, not the roller.

Steals and Deals For Oils

There’s three ways we found for you to save:

  • Spend $100 and get $15 off: CLICK HERE

  • Sign up for their newsletter get notified about promos they run pretty frequently. Also, I’m pretty sure they usually have a Black Friday Sale.

  • Go in and create an account on their site. If you scroll down in your account, you’ll see a million ways you can earn rewards points just by doing simple things like creating your account and sharing on Facebook. I’ve saved $10 on an order before, just by doing this.

*A few of these items were found on Amazon so I wanted to be sure to mention that as an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
