As a certified personal trainer who works with mostly women, I’ve seeing which products women love to use. I also know what works from using them myself day in and day out!
Therefore, I’ve put together a list of the best (and affordable!) fitness gift ideas for women that will get used more than the treadmill sitting in the basement.
The Best Fitness Gifts for Women

Every women loves a nice shoe, and these Asics definitely make getting a workout in fun.

Non Slip Skid Toe Grips Women 4 Pack
Non-slip Exercise Socks to go Shoe Free
Women love to workout barefoot, but it’s not necessarily the best or safest idea. You need a grip beneath your feet to make sure you don’t slip and hurt yourself.
These non-slip exercise socks are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G.
You can workout in them without shoes because they have a grip just like gym shoes, making sure she is not slipping on sweat.
However, they are not heavy at all and give the feeling that you are still working out barefoot.
They’re also super cute and cozy!

There’s just something about looking good that makes you want to leave the house, and a gym bag is a fitness girls best friend!
This gorgeous gym bag by Adidas is perfect. It comes in several colors, has a ventilated pocket that fits shoes & dirty clothes (so they receive proper airflow), and has an exterior pocket for things like a phone, wallet and keys.
It also fits a ton without being bulky or feeling heavy since the bag is the perfect size yet lightweight.
The other great thing about this bag is that it can be used for things other than the gym, like overnight trips and weekend getaways.

Flip Belt to Carry Necessities
Since no one really wants to stray too far from some of their personal items, the FlipBelt is the perfect way to keep things on you without having to put them down and without them interfering with your workout.
The FlipBelt is very slim and lightweight. You wear it over your waist band and it feels like it’s just a part of your pants. It doesn’t bounce around at all.
However, it holds a ton! You can fit your cell phone in there (it fits my iphone 6), your ID, keys, cash, credit cards, protein bars, etc.
Super convenient and very affordable!

Flip Belt Hands Free Water Bottle
FlipBelt has also come up with this genius water bottle that holds 11oz of water and fits right in to the FlipBelt!
Seriously, how awesome is this?!
This allows you to carry your water, keys, cash, and phone right around your waist! (Don’t worry, they go in to separate compartments and wont damage or touch each other).
By the way, the water bottle is leak proof so running with it or working out in general is not an issue.

Whether she works out at home or at the gym, every women should have her own towel to wipe down with while she works out.
Let’s be real- the towels at the gym suck! Plus, you don’t know who’s been using them or how they’re washing them.
This Microfiber hand towel is super soft, extremely absorbent and very fast drying.
It’s like a little piece of luxury while getting your workout in.

TriggerPoint GRID Foam Roller with Free Online Instructional Videos, Original (13-inch)
Trigger Point Foam Roller for Recovery & Pain
I was introduced to Trigger Point foam rollers when I worked at a sports medicine clinic and have not been able to use any other foam roller since.
Not only do these come at a great price, but they also last forever.
Unlike traditional foam rollers, the multi-dimensional surface of this foam roller replicates the feeling of a massage therapist’s hands to help channel blood, improve oxygen flow, and heal tissue.
They help her recover from injuries, relieve muscle and joint pain, and improve circulation, flexibility, balance and mobility.

The Fitbit charge wirelessly syncs to a smartphone with the Fitbit App so that you can track your progress and view everything you are doing fitness wise.
Large Water Bottle to Ensure Proper Hydration
Women love water bottles. Don’t ask me why, we just do!
However, there’s no point in wasting a bunch of money on crappy water bottles. Having a high quality water bottle from the beginning is ideal.
This water bottle is seriously the perfect water bottle! It keeps water cold so she doesn’t have to drink disgusting hot water once her workout is over. It also holds 74oz of water to make sure she drinks enough water everyday, without having to constantly refill.
It’s also very comfortable to carry and drink out of when you are actively working out.

Wireless Headphones that Don’t Interfere with Exercise
For under $30, you can get wireless headphones with amazing quality.
Why wireless? Well, it’s not fun to exercise with wires hitting your chest, tangling around your arms or just getting in the way. It’s also not as fun to workout without music.
These headphones are made for sports and are even sweat proof. This is a must for anyone who works out outside of the home or is trying to keep the volume down inside the house. 9PM exercises while baby is sleeping, anyone?
