Top 5 Best Gifts For Gym Goers

Buying presents for people can be hard, and it can be extra hard when you don’t have a clue about their passion. This happens to many couples and friend groups when one of them is a gym goer and wants a fresh supply of monohydrate creatine. So, what is the best gift for a gym goer?

Take it from me. I have been actively pumping iron for about 2 years now. The only present I have ever gotten for the gym is a pair of gloves. Believe me, this is a very bad gift for a weightlifter.

The average person doesn’t know what monohydrate creatine is and wouldn’t understand why gloves are a bad gift. If this is you, don’t worry. I am here to help. Here’s a list of the top 5 best gifts for a gym goer.

Gym chalk

I know that there are people reading this article thinking why would a person want chalk at the gym?

Gym chalk isn’t for drawing on backboards. It’s actually for rubbing on to your hands. Why would you use chalk on your hands? If you have ever had sweaty hands before then I’m sure you can imagine how hard it would be if you were trying to hold onto a barbell with them.

So, the solution to this problem is gym chalk. In addition to that, liquid gym chalk. In my opinion liquid gym chalk is a lot better as it is easier to use and does not create a mess. In my opinion, this is one of the best items to have at the gym and it would make a great gift for any gym goer.

A huge plus about this gift is not only that it’s thoughtful but it’s also dirt cheap. For around $20 you can get a 4-6 month supply (depending on how much you use)

Clothes

Clothes are one of the best gifts for anyone, especially gym goers. You just have to make sure you get the right ones. Here’s a few worthy gym clothing brands.

  • Gym shark
  • Nike
  • Adidas
  • Everlast

These are all trust worthy brands, and most of their stuff is available on Amazon.

The important thing to remember is that everyone has their own style. So, make sure you take that into consideration when buying for someone else. If you’re having trouble finding the perfect style or design, then maybe you might get some ideas from this article, 11 Must-Have Sportswear Essentials to have in Wardrobe.

A paid membership

Gyms aren’t free. In fact, they are actually quite expensive. My local gym only costs £15 just for a day session. However, for a 1-month membership, it only costs £99. There is no better gift than this.

I recommend you research the gym that your gift receiver goes to. Some gyms charge a crazy price. The most expensive I have come across is £450 for a month’s membership. Don’t make a promise to anyone before you know and understand the price of the gym. You want to get your gym goer friend the best gift, but you don’t want to be broke.

Supplements

Another one of the best gifts for a gym goer is supplements. Most gym goers like to take supplements. This could be any type of supplement, such as protein powder, creatine, or pre workout. These supplements can be quite costly; however, they are a great gift.

As a tip, you should try and find out what supplement you gift receiver is currently using. This is because some people can be quite picky with their supplements. However, it never hurts to try something new. You can spend a couple extra bucks and buy a very high-quality supplement.

Cool Accessories

I wanted to list a few more good gifts on this list. So, here they are.

Weightlifting belts are great for protecting your back with heavy lifts. They can even boost your performance. I got a weightlifting belt for Christmas and I now use it every time I go to the gym. My Dad bought it from Amazon for only £25, and its real leather.

Another cool gift is a new gym bag. For my birthday one of my friends bought me a brand-new Gold’s gym bag. This made me very happy and it’s cool to have a bag with such an iconic gym brand on the front of it.

A new water bottle is always a good idea. Nowadays water bottles are actually pretty advanced. I know it sounds strange but trust me. There are even water bottles available that allow you to mix your protein powder more easier.

These are some of the best gifts that I’ve received, and I’m a gym goer so I would know. I love the gym so much i even started my own blog Way-up.blog, to spread the good word of the gym.
