This holiday season, give a gift that will inspire its recipient to eat a little better, play a little longer or work out a little harder. The Wellness Coaches at Beaufort Memorial LifeFit Wellness Center offer several ideas to make your gift giving a little easier.
Adjustable Dumbells - Recommended by Sydney
Dumbbells with adjustable weight are good for all fitness levels and take up less space than a set of individual dumbbells. Make a home exercise program easy for your sweetie with this compact option.
Yoga Kit
The beauty of yoga is it can be done anywhere, alone or in a class. Get your loved one off on the right foot with a kit, which likely will include a mat, block, strap and how-to video.
Activity Tracker - Recommended by David
An activity tracker helps with accountability by reminding the wearer to move. The key is to find one with features to fit your loved one's needs (e.g., GPS for runners, direct cellular connection for those who don't take their phone along, etc.). Help that special person on your list — whether they are a techie or not — track activities, calorie burn, sleep and more for better wellness.
Gym Bag/Lunch Box - Recommended by Ricca
Make toting gym gear or healthy food options easy and you'll help those on your gift list stick with their healthy routines. Ricca especially likes the stylish and innovative bags offered by Six Pack Fitness.
Food Co-op or Local Farm Gift Certificate
Look for a local buy-in food co-op or a local farm to get ultra-fresh fruits and veggies. Explore a food-share purchase, gift card or gift certificate.
Smoothie Blender
For those who tend to run short on time in the morning, a blender can help them sip on healthy, on-the-go smoothies rather than skipping breakfast altogether or running by the drive-through. Small, affordable smoothie blenders make blending a breeze and add sippable vitamins and minerals to breakfast.
Sports Headphones
Upgrade your favorite runner to wireless headphones they can pair with their mobile device. They'll provide comfort with sports-rated flexibility and durability.
Resistance Bands - Recommended by Cheyanne and David
Resistance bands make working out anywhere a snap and are a great way to build strength. They are lightweight (carry-on bag approved) and come in different resistance levels so you can modify workouts depending on how you’re feeling or the muscle group you're working. They can also help you stretch out those tight and achy muscles when travelling.
Fitness Belt
This isn’t your mom’s fanny pack. Today’s machine-washable belts come in high-visibility fabrics with multiple pockets to snugly stow keys, ID and more while the wearer is on the move.
