Getting gifts for the fitness lover in your life can be tricky, especially when it feels like they have everything under the sun. When they’re not working out in their decked out home gym, they’re trying out the newest supplements and rehab accessories. Luckily, here at Griffin we’ve compiled our list of gift ideas for fitness lovers and gym goers alike. Even better, we have a wide range of ideas to fit every budget. Here’s 61 fitne4s gift ideas:

1. Bands – $49

Pull-up bands aka resistance bands are extremely versatile. They can be used for various workouts, stretching, and rehabilitation. Lots of people use them for pull-up assistance or adding increased tension with barbell work. Getting the whole bundle makes gifting so much easier.

2. Bumper plates – $49-$675

Upgrade their plates with new bumpers! Nothing motivates someone more than a new, matching set of plates. Whether it’s black bumper plates or competition bumper plates, every gym owner needs these. These are sold in pairs and sets.

3. Kettlebells – $32-$97

One of the most versatile pieces of equipment in any gym is the kettlebell. Give them the best of the best by choosing a kettlebell that has single-piece casting and smooth black powder coat finish for grip, durability, and protection. Even better ours have color-coded handles for easy differentiation. Get them one, or get them a whole set. These will always be used.

4. Bench – $165-$395

Having a solid bench is key for any gym. The best part is that our benches are all rated for 1,000lbs+ weight capacity and are easily moved around. A great starting point would be the Adjustable FID Bench (flat, incline, decline) or Competition Flat Bench.

5. New Rack – $820-$1,135

Spoil that special someone with a new rack that allows them to do so much more with less. For smaller spaces, a squat stand or half rack is recommended. For those that are looking for something extra beefy and future proof, the GR3 Power Rack and GR3 Lite Power Rack are the best choices, not to mention the endless amount of attachments that are available for each.

6. RACk attachments – $30-$150

If they have a rack, get them some functional attachments. For 3×3″ power racks with 1″ holes, visit our GR3 attachments. For 3×3″ power racks with 5/8″ holes see our Lite attachments.

Whether it’s working out or lounging around, get your special someone a classic Griffin shirt or hoodie.

8. Griffin Gift Card

Maybe you know what they want, but you’re not quite sure exactly which item they want. A Griffin gift card if perfect for anyone that is looking to add another piece to their gym or is planning on upgrading in the new year. Give the gift of choice.

And now for some other fitness gift ideas that we would also appreciate:

9. Massage gun – $40-$200

There are lots of brands out there, but massage guns are great for active rest days and post workout recovery to get rid of any tightness, tensions, and knots in a few seconds. Most sets even come with multiple heads, a carrying case, and are rechargeable

10. Foam roller – $9-$40

Everyone needs a roller, whether you’re into yoga or a powerlifter. Foam rollers are great because there are so many kinds to choose from and can be used for recovery or warmup. For those trying to save space, a compact roller works great. They also make ones with various patterns to penetrate deep knots.

11. Wireless headphones – $49-$250

Choosing the right wireless earbuds can be hard. That’s why we recommend this list. Be sure to ask and get a better idea of what they prefer. Some like completely wireless while other like the ones that run behind the neck. Either way, these are great for both inside and outside the gym.

12. Wireless bluetooth speaker – $50-$400

Maybe they’re not into wireless headphones or earbuds. That’s why a wireless speaker is the way to go. One thing to consider is if they already have a smart home system like Google or Alexa.Then you can buy speakers that are compatible with those systems. If not, check out this list. Our personal favorites are Sonos and Bose speakers.

13. Blender – $25-$300

Give the gift of a great blender. These are great for protein shakes, smoothies, soups, sauces, cauliflower rice, and more. Our personal favorite is the Vitamix with a personal cup adapter, where you can make your drink directly in the blender. Honestly, the whole family benefits from one of these.

14. Smart watches & trackers – $26-$500

Every fitness junkie loves to track how much they move. Get them an Apple watch, Fitbit tracker, Whoop, or Garmin. All of these are great options to track steps, calories burned, and some even allow you to track your sleep quality.

15. Change plates – $15-$200

Every lifter could use more change plates. They may have whole sets of 45s, but change plates are something a lot of people don’t have. An added bonus is that these are great for kids that are looking to train.

16. Jump rope or speed rope – $5-$100

Get your special someone a high quality speed rope or a weighted jump rope for those that are looking for a challenge. Check out this list.

17. Plyo box – $38-$150

Get creative, but generally with fitness folks (and health conscious ones at that), all of these make great gifts without having to pick exactly what to get them.

21. Custom lifting belt – $20-$100+

For anyone that lifts some serious weight, get them a custom lifting belt. Getting their name, their favorite slogan, or their gym name makes for a thoughtful surprise. If you want to be safe, getting a lifting belt that’s in their favorite color works as well! We recommend asking for their size first.

22. Self massager – $20

When the going gets rough (with hard to reach spots), a self massager gets the job done. It’s easy to tuck away and helps with stubborn knots on the shoulders and back. This one’s a best seller on Amazon.

23. Dumbbells – $30-$700

Get a few or a whole set. Anyone that works out needs dumbbells at some point. If you really want to splurge, get them adjustable dumbbells to save the most space. And if they already have dumbbells, get them a rack––they’ll appreciate it.
