So maybe we’re not all fitness fanatics. Especially not during the holidays. (Now that I’m seven months pregnant, my main form of exercise is dragging my ever-expanding booty out of bed!) But some women are in the gym even on Thanksgiving morning- burning calories before they even consume them (more power to them and more turkey for me!). So when you’re shopping for your fitness-loving loved one this holiday season, here are five holiday gifts that will make any fit chick want to work up a sweat.
For the stylish yogi
This glam bag for your yoga mat is a great way to look good while you’re saying Om. Stylish and available in many colors and patterns (even sparkly!), it’s a yoga mat bag that will have all the other yogis staring. It even has secret roomy pockets hidden in the pleats that can be used for keys, cell phones, water bottles and more. A gorgeous yoga bag for the yogi with a sense of style, $98.00, www.ogorgeous.com.
For the woman who wants to look great while staying in shape
Finally, a headband that keeps your hair looking good while you’re sweating up a storm! And who says you have to look like a hot mess while working out anyway? These stylish hair accessories are a must-have for any cardio-loving woman who wants to look great while breaking a sweat. Beware: these headbands are just like potato chips- you can’t have just one, $18, www.sweatybands.com.
For the stressed out woman
We all know letting go of stress is easier said than done. Well, now there’s a gadget that can teach you how to relax. The Mio FitStik is a device that straps to your chest and measures your heartbeat fluctuations to gauge stress. The data is transmitted to a website where you can monitor your stress and get tips on how to decrease it. It’s the perfect gift for any woman who pushes herself too hard. De-stressing and relaxing just became easier, $49.99, www.mioglobal.com.
For the night owl
Some women like to work out in the morning and some at night. (And some would say never!) But for the woman who runs after the sun goes down, Crow makes a watch that glows in the dark. Crow’s Lush watch is available in twelve colors (the neon orange is fun!). Now the woman who loves to run after dark will not only be able to see where she’s going but what time she’s getting there, $54.50, www.crowwatches.com.
For the woman without a lot of time
Let’s face it, if we could give anyone the perfect gift, it would be time. Well the Step 360 Pro is the next best thing. For the woman who has to squeeze in her workouts between carpool and laundry, this balance training device can be used for everything from push ups to cardio. And it hardly takes up any space! Squeeze in a full-body workout in between dishes and diapers, $149.98, www.spri.com.
