If you’re scrambling for some last minute gifts for the fitness fanatic in your life – and you’ve got Amazon Prime – you can still do some online shopping from the comfort of your own home tonight! Choose free two day shipping or the $3.99 one day shipping in order to get it delivered by Christmas Eve. {For some items I looked at, the free 2-day option would get it to you in time; for others it looked like the processing might be slightly longer requiring the 1-day fee. Take a look at the guaranteed delivery date when you browse shipping options!}
Here are some of my favorite last minute fitness gift ideas:
{Disclosure: This post contains affiliate links.}
For the techy workout lover…
If you’ve got a little dough to spend, a new piece of fitness technology will probably be a welcome gift! Think along the lines of GPS enabled watches (Garmin is my favorite brand – no affiliation with them but love their watches!), fitness trackers (FitBit, Jawbone, Garmin Vivofit, etc), or some Bluetooth enabled sport headphones.
For the fitness fashionista…
If you’ve got a fitness fanatic that loves to look & feel good while working out, here are some of my top clothing picks. I’m a girl who loves a good hoodie, and this underarmour one is super cute. I own a pair of Soybu Killer Caboose Leggings and they are true to their word – they hug the booty and are super comfortable. The 90 Degree leggings and over the calf socks come in fun patterns, which are perfect for those who like to shine bright in the gym or on their run!
For the runner or triathlete…
All of these recommended items are inexpensive yet will serve your friend or family member well in their athletic pursuits. A foam roller helps stretch out muscular tissue after tough workouts; body glide prevents chafing on long runs or rides; lock laces make it easy to keep your shoes tied without having to tie them over and over; and Swiftwick Socks will make sure to protect and cushion any runner’s foot (note only some of the Swiftwick socks are prime eligible).
For ladies who lift…
If you’ve got a lady in your life that loves strength training, one of these gifts might be perfect. I love the barbell charm necklace because it’s something different and unique – plus it’s something that many women wouldn’t think to buy themselves (note that this one isn’t eligible for prime, so it’d probably be something to think about for next year). A pair of weight lifting gloves (with colors including black, pink, or turquoise) is great for any strength athlete. If you’re looking to really treat someone, the adjustable dumbbells that range from 5 to 50 pounds are a great investment for the person that loves lifting at home. Lastly, a combination lock that uses words rather than numbers is perfect for those that love the gym but always forget their combination to their locker.

December 23, 2015 at 6:19 pmI know, I love that necklace. Since I’m not as much about lifting as I am running, I recently had a 26.2 necklace made for myself (little present to me, haha) and I love it.
