Since many gyms and fitness studios are closed this winter, you’ll want to get your fit friend something extra special this holiday season. Fortunately, the at-home workout game has gone next level with systems like Peloton or the Lit Method strength machine. That said, not everyone wants (or has space for) a gigantic exercise machine in their house. This guide features comfy workout wear alongside elegant, design-friendly equipment that they’ll want to keep on display.
GIFT GUIDE: The Fit Friend

Wooden Dumbbells
Kenko, Starting at $129
Who even knew a set of dumbbells could be so sophisticated?? They’re crafted from natural hardwood—American walnut or Canadian maple—with brass details and a weighted iron core.


UBarre
Equipt, $129
The brass sculpture in the lower left is actually a UBarre, a weighted piece of workout equipment. Different movements can tone arms, abs, the booty, and more — and it looks great when not in use.

Rebounder
Lauren Roxburgh, $799
A bellicon workout is quite possibly the best exercise in the world for the lymphatic system. Plus, it’s a compact way to break a sweat.

Activewear
Girlfriend Collective, Starting at $38
Available in a variety of colors. Girlfriend’s bras and leggings are recycled (made from water bottles) and recyclable. When they’re ready to part with it years from now, they can recycle it with ReGirlfriend.


Massage
Theragun Mini, $199
The holy grail of muscle treatment and recovery.

Antibacterial Body Wipes
Bravo Sierra, $10.50
These handy wipes kill 99.99% of bacteria in 60 seconds and are made from biodegradable material.

Kits

From casual tie dye sweatsuits to performance bras + leggings, Bandier has the best matching sets that fitness fanatics will love.

Arnicare Gel
Boiron, $8
Trust us. You’ll be a holiday hero if you give this to an exercise enthusiast. This homeopathic medicine has been shown to relieve muscle pain, stiffness, swelling from injuries, and even speed up the recovery time on bruises.


Jump Rope
Ode to Things, $120
It’s designed and built to be the last jump rope they’ll ever want, with a high quality design that offers consistency with each swing.
