Best gifts for a Valentine who loves to work out
Therabody’s latest massage gun, the Theragun Prime Plus, offers all the features the popular Theragun has to offer, with three attachments and a newly heated head. This way, you can warm up before your workout or soothe sore muscles after the fact. The Theragun Prime Plus has five speeds and three heat levels to choose from. This massage gun also comes with a carrying case, making it easy to take with you anywhere.
Dual Magnetic Phone Holder
If your Valentine likes checking their exercise form at the gym, self-recording a video on their phone can be helpful. It’s annoying having to prop up your phone using other equipment around you, but using a dual magnetic phone holder can be a big help. This holder is small enough (and affordable) to carry in your gym bag, but the magnet is strong enough to stick to any metal piece of equipment at the gym. If you’re a fitness influencer, this phone holder is also adjustable, so you’re sure to get all the best angles when you self-record.
There's more to wellness trackers than smartwatches. The Oura smart ring is an ideal gift if your recipient takes their sleep seriously and wants to track it. This is especially helpful for new parents trying to get a better sleep routine on their schedule. We reviewed the Oura ring against two other popular smart rings, and it’s the most advanced on the market and continues to improve over time. This can be an ideal gift for someone who enjoys stylish jewelry, but also appreciates a technological component since it is a subtle piece of smart wear.
You can’t go wrong with a good yoga mat as a gift. Take it up a notch by gifting a yoga mat like Stakt that folds flat and compact for easy transportation. It’s versatile enough that it can be used as a yoga mat for yoga practice, group fitness classes, or even as a yoga block when it’s folded up. It also stores well and there is no need to struggle with rolling it up like a traditional yoga mat.
If your Valentine is a serious weightlifter and is looking for a way to improve their skills with new footwear, then lifting in socks may be the better option. Pedestal Footwear is a lightweight barefoot training shoe that resembles a sock and has rubber treads on the sole so you are always secure during your lifts. This is a less bulky alternative to weightlifting shoes and can be used indoors or outdoors. The best part is these are also machine washable and cheaper than traditional lifting shoes.
The runner in your life will always appreciate a new pair of running sneakers like the Saucony Women’s Ride 18. They come in a variety of colors and have more traction, which makes them perfect for long runs. The heel on this shoe is also more cushioned, which makes it ideal if you have a heel strike.
Everlast Elite 2 Boxing Gloves
Whether your valentine likes sparring or kickboxing classes, you can’t go wrong with a good pair of boxing gloves. Everlast is a classic brand that comes in a variety of weights and sizes. The Everlast Elite 2 are meant for heavy and speed training and will keep your hands protected with even the strongest punches.
Everyone knows rest days are equally as important as active days. If your Valentine likes to be comfy during their rest days, they’ll want a good pair of sweats to live in. Under Armour has sweat sets for men and women under the UA Icon line that are guaranteed to be a hit with your Valentine. Choose from hoodies to joggers to keep them warm on those chilly February days beyond Valentine’s.
