Gifts For Gym Owners To Get Their Fitness And Nutrition Coaches
I have been on both sides of the toast here. So having experience being both a gym owner, and a coach I feel like I’m pretty qualified putting my input in what I think a great coaches gift would be. Although I love the idea of gym branded apparel, I don’t only want to get my coaches something with the gyms name on it. I think doing both is a great idea!

Best Strength Training Fitness Gifts For Wellness Fanatics
There are so many fitness gifts out there, but the ones in this category could be considered gym equipment. If you have someone to buy for who has a home gym, or just loves to workout, these are all great options.
Exercise Gift #1 - Jump Ropes
One thing I believe that every new CrossFitter should actually purchase (other than all the unnecessary gear they purchase) is a jump rope! Clients who have their own jump ropes don’t have to worry about picking the correct size from the rack on the gym wall. Additionally they can take the jump rope home and use it to complete a full body workout!
Rogue SR-1 Speed Rope
Simple but effective jump rope!
Exercise Gift #2 - Weighted Vests
A weighted vest can be used in the toughest workouts, or as added resistance when walking. Any fitness level can benefit from using a weighted vest. Workouts don’t have to be complicated to be effective! Walking with a weighted vest is one of the best ways to get some steps in, and add some resistance to workouts.
MIR Weighted Vest
Walking is underated! Wear this, get out there and walk!
Exercise Gift #3 - Barbell
Receiving your very first barbell is an exciting moment! Gone are the days you will have to use the rusty, non spinning hunk of metal racked at the gym. Barbells make a great gift for gym owners to get coaches, or for family members to get coaches or fit friends in their lives.
Rogue Fitness and Fringe Sports offers a wide variety of barbells. There is nothing better than waiting for a barbell you have purchased for some one you care about. It’s so exciting!
Fringe Sports Ladies Barbell
Great for olympic lifting, and metcons!
Rogue Echo Bar
45lb Rogue Echo Bar versatile and perfect for all types of olympic lifting and functional fitness!
Exercise Gift #4 - Barbell Collars
There is nothing more frustrating than worn out gym collars that hundreds of clients use every year. Having your own barbell collars, (even if you don’t own your own barbell but use the gyms) is a game changer!
Keep in mind that you will no longer be able to use tightening your weights, and collar as an excuse to rest!
Synergee Barbell Collars
Non slipping aluminium collars - 2 in diameter

Mighty collars for that barbell! These strong, don't slip and are amazing.
