8 Fitness Gifts For This Christmas

Apple Watch Ultra

Every single Apple Watch drop has had us drooling all over our iPhones and Macbooks, and its latest horological wonder is no exception. Designed with athletes and adventurers in mind, it comes with a robust titanium case, precision dual-frequency GPS, up to 36 hours of battery life, as well as specialised straps for outdoor adventures, endurance training and water sports. 

Plus Apple has given its Workout app an update with new metrics and views, along with a larger display that lets you see up to six metrics at once. Keeping track of those runs just became a whole lot easier.

Therabody SmartGoggles

Recovery is important when it comes to keeping up with your fitness goals. Nutrition is key in this recovery, but so is sleep. Lucky for you Huel has you covered on that first one, and then there’s these space-age style SmartGoggles that could potentially help with the latter. 

In short they’re like a high-tech eye mask, designed to be used during the day to boost concentration, reduce stress or ease facial tension and headaches, and at night to help you drift off to sleep. Ain’t it wild living in the future, hey?

Huel Men's Performance T-Shirt v1.0

Looking and feeling good at the gym is important. With seamless construction and four-way stretch, our performance t-shirt is built to work with your body, however hard you train.

It comes in a quick-drying fabric with excellent moisture control to keep your skin fresh and dry, while recycled Q-NOVA® nylon keeps more oil in the ground and more plastic out of landfill. A fitness gift that looks good, feels good, and does good.

Rogue 5.11 Tactec Trainer Weight Vest

For those who’ve mastered the bodyweight pull-up, there’s the weighted vest. Not only does it make that workout even tougher, but it can also improve posture, increase anaerobic metabolism, and burn more calories. This vest from Rogue is easily adjustable, making it easier for you to find the right weight for your workout needs.

La Pochette Sweat Bag

We’ve all become a bit more aware of hygiene at the gym since anti-bac squirt stations became a regular feature. All that hand washing is lost though if you’re just going to shove your sweaty kit back into your rucksack with all your other things. 

This sustainable kit bag solves the problem, with an anti-bacterial, water-resistant and machine-washable fabric made out of recycled plastic bottles. It’s a stylish way of keeping that smelly gear contained.

Huel Complete Protein

You’ve heard it before, and we’ll say it again – protein helps build muscle. So if you’re completing your end of the bargain, i.e. doing the heavy lifting, there’s no better support to help you reach your fitness goals. 

Enter Huel Complete Protein, the world’s first nutritionally complete vegan protein powder, and available in a selection of moreish flavours. Chocolate Fudge Brownie, anyone? 

Plus it comes in a rather handsome tub – if we may say so ourselves – which makes it super easy to wrap up and pop under the Christmas tree.
