Shoes
Work out shoes are very important to any fitness enthusiast: fitness beginner to advanced! They will need running shoes if they are runners. Or training shoes if they go to the gym and workout. Here are a few of my favorite shoes that I personally love! For running, I like these Adidas Running shoes! For days where I am training at the gym I like these Nike trainers and Adidas trainers!
Headphones
Have you ever gone to the gym without your headphones? I have done that. It is not fun! So headphones are a must for a fitness beginner! You can have your own music to get you pumped up for your workout! These wireless earbuds are great! If you want over the ear headphones, I really like these Skull Candy ones!
Workout clothes
This is one of my favorite things about working out. The leggings are AMAZING. The tanks are so fun! And the bras are so cute! I LIVE in my workout clothes. Sometimes after the gym, I change into a different outfit of leggings and a cute bra and tank… HAHA! I get most of my leggings from Old Navy, they have great prices and moisture wicking which is important if you are sweaty like me. My bras are from Victoria Secret because they fit me the best! The Angel Max is my absolute favorite!! And I get tanks from everywhere, Old Navy has fun ones. Amazon has some great ones. Everyone loves a cute workout tank!
Fitbit
A Fitbit or other fitness tracker is great for tracking steps or for any other workout! So for a fitness beginner, this is a great starting tool. I got my first Fitbit when I started in fitness because I wanted to know how many calories I was burning in every workout I was doing. There are multiple types of Fitbits, I like the ones with the screens so I can keep up to date by looking at my watch.
I have a Samsung Gear Fit2 right now and I love it. It connects to my phone so I get notifications from my phone. I can track my workouts. It counts my steps. I can also update MyFitnessPal from my watch! It also tracks my sleep which is an added bonus! My whole family (well most of them) have the Apple Watch and they love it.
Reusable Water Bottle
I love my Hydro cell reusable water bottle! I take it everywhere. It holds 40 oz of water and everything stay SO cold for a very long time! I like the fact that it has 2 different lids. One with a straw and one as wide mouth. A reusable water bottle is great to help you stay hydrated! There are also some water bottles with motivational quotes on them to keep you motivated to keep drinking your water!
Blender Bottle
Do you like protein shakes? Do you mix them yourself? Well, you definitely need a blender bottle for a fast way to shake up a protein shake! I have so many blender bottles! I love them! Haha! They have so many colors and styles! They are great for a fitness beginner because they are easy to use and can be used for a lot of different things!
Fitness Journal
I saw this FitBook and thought that this would be perfect for a fitness beginner! You can track your workouts and what you’ve eaten and drank for the day. The Fitbook can also help you focus on your goals by writing them out! This is great to keep your fitness beginner on on the right track!
Gym Membership
A gym membership would be a great gift, if this fitness beginner wants to belong to a gym! If you are a member at a gym, you may be able to get them a trial and see how they like it! Some gyms will give out a free week trial and that would be a fun little thing to add into the gift for the fitness beginner. That way you can workout together!
Another great idea would be an at home gym membership! My blog has a ton a GREAT workouts! If you want more workouts, Beachbody On Demand would be perfect! They would have access to all of the Beachbody programs and they could see which ones work for them! My favorites are T25, P90X3, and PiYo!

What is it about new workout clothes that really motivates you to work out…?? I am loving that taco tank top – so cute!! First I do the workout – then I eat the tacos… 🙂 Charlie xo
EXACTLY! Sometimes I feel like I only workout for the cute clothes… hahaha
Great pick for beginners!! This list will be very helpful! Thank you so much for sharing your ideas
These are some great ideas for people who are looking to get into fitness. I think it is a fab idea to try and think of ways to help people with their hobbies when it comes to gifts too!
So many great options! I know a few would be perfect for people on our list.
I love to have the bluetooth headset, needed that badly when I workout in the gym. It gets me pump and work harder with my favorite music.
Definitely! Music is a great motivator!
These are some really great gift ideas for those just starting out. Definitely need to check some of these out.
I am so into fitness clothing right now motivating myself to stay active . I have requested a fitbit versa as Christmas gift will see if I am lucky enough to get it.
The Versa looks so nice!
Fitness journal sounds good. You can also have a food diary..that would be a good gift idea too..
A food diary would be great! The Fitbook has that included which is so nice! 🙂
there are some great fitness gift ideas for Christmas. I think I should be putting the fitbit on my wish list. I also especially like the journal, I think that one is often forgotten about and I also like the blender bottles. these will make great gifts for anyone into fitness.
Definitely! I have the Fitbook on my wishlist!
I love all of these ideas! I’m just starting to workout. They would be great for me.
I am all about my fitbit, but I find it doesn’t track quite as accurately as I would like. Either way, it’s a good motivator to get up and move:)
Fitness beginner! YAS!!! Great gift guide! I’ll have to save this one!! Thanks for the research
Those look like really good gifts! I have a fitbit and I love it. I have not seen the Fitbook yet. I need to add that to my Christmas list. I am not a fitness beginner, but I am very much into keeping track of things. I love the phrase on the tank top, mostly because I love tacos, and it is funny too.
With the start of the new year. Everyone wants to start working out. This is an excellent source of gift ideas for them.
I really do love the headphones. And they are so useful when you are working out. Although I sweat so much I worry about that sometimes. And the fitbit is always useful. I do love keeping track of my steps.
No need to wait until the new year to start crushing those goals. These are great ideas for gifting someone who is ready to make a commitment to his/her health. A Fitbit would be great with my name on it underneath our tree.
These all looks like a great gift idea for fitness lovers in the christmas. I have a friend who recently joined gym. I would love to give the headphone for him.
Perfect gift ideas! I like the headphones. It is great to have when hitting the gym so I can be focused.
