The 2020 Holiday Gift Guide for Fitness Buffs

Written by

Just because the world seems to have been put on hold this year doesn't mean the fitness buff in your life has set aside their training goals. More people are out riding, running and working out than ever before, and this holiday season will likely have a heavy emphasis on fitness-related gifts.

With so many disciplines and brands, purchasing fitness gifts can sometimes be a bit overwhelming if you don't have a wish list to look at. We did the heavy lifting (see what we did there?) for you and gathered several gifts for fitness fanatics at a wide range of price points—from headphones and a massage gun, to rock climbing gear and a kayak. 

1


Lumen

$299

Used by the likes of Tour de France winner Chris Froome and world champion swimmer Michael Andrew, Lumen is the world's first hand-held, portable device to accurately measure metabolism. It uses a CO2 sensor and flow meter to determine the CO2 concentration in a single breath, which indicates the type of fuel your fitness fanatic's body is using to produce energy. From there it helps track your athlete's daily metabolism, offers customized meal plans and helps optimize workouts, too!
