In other words, for those lucky enough to have more time stuck at home, the pandemic provided a chance to invest in products to benefit our health and fitness, rather than buying a new dress or eating out.
And now that Amazon Prime Day has officially kicked off the holiday shopping season, we see no reason to stop the trend. Whether you’re shopping for yourself or for another fitness-lover, these are the best new gifts to add to your online carts this holiday season.
1. Theragun Mini Percussive Therapy Device

I’ve written about my love for this deep-tissue massage tool before and stand by it. It won’t replace a massage therapist or chiropractor, but for a mild case of tech neck or general achiness, this device (now available in a new mini version) is the perfect solution.

4. Lululemon The Reversible Mat 3mm

Lululemon’s yoga mats are consistently rated as some of the best by serious yogis due to their grip, cushioning, and antimicrobial finish. Even if you’re just taking up a yoga practice for the first time, you might as well spring for one that will look pretty even if you forget to put it away.

5. LARQ Self-Sanitizing Water Bottle

If you need a stylish new water bottle (or want to gift one to that friend or family member who never remembers to drink water) then look no further. The first self-cleaning water bottle and water purification system, LARQ uses UV-C LED technology to eliminate harmful bacteria and viruses (and we love this chic new colorway).

6. Peloton Bike+

For someone you really love (or yourself), now might just be the perfect time to finally pull the trigger on a Peloton. Not only does the bike have improved features cyclists will love, like automatic digital resistance, but the larger, rotating screen and one-tap Apple Watch syncing also make it easier to take Peloton’s strength, yoga, stretching, and meditation classes. (And if you’re looking to spend a bit less, the original bike is now priced lower than before).

7. Bala Bangles Classic 1lb

These fashion-forward weights were so popular during quarantine (thanks in part to fitness influencers like Hannah Bronfman and Melissa Wood), they were sold out for months. Now you can finally scoop up a pair of the wrist and ankle weights (available in four colors) for the yoga or barre-lover who wants to kick things up a notch.
