1. The newest crossfit trainers

Besides MetCons and Nanos, there are plenty of other training brands which entered the functional fitness market in the past few years. Your choice really depends on the personal preferences.

2. Wooden gymnastic rings

For someone who likes gymnastics, this is a beautiful Christmas gift. Buy the wooden gymnastic rings as they are much more comfortable to work with.  

3. VROPE FIRE jump rope

During Holidays most boxes close their doors and they only way to do training is to use the equipment you have at home.

Get a jump rope and tackle on WODs like Annie. If you are looking for a high quality speed rope, The Vropes Fire 2.0 is the most advanced jump rope for crossfit athletes on the market.

4. Smartphone cases for crossfit junkies

If you are looking for a simple gift, smartphone cases are the choice to go with. Make sure you buy the ones with “Call FRAN for a good time…” or similar crossfit wording.

5. Barbell toys for kids

Don’t forget about the younger generation. They expect something. If you want to raise a crossfitter, plastics barbells are the way to start.

6. Leather weightlifting belt

The strongmen black leather or the golden wonder woman, nowadays belts come in all colours and designs.

7. Crossfit girls jewellery

Not any kind of jewellery, but crossfit kind of jewellery. Tiny kettebells, barbells and motivational quotes “she lifts”.



8. Multifunctional training bag

Get a multifunctional training bag, meaning this bag also has a space for Tupperware and protein shaker, dirty clothes and cosmetics. Also, it needs to store at least two pairs of trainers, a few t-shirts, leggings, shorts and trousers.

9. Cute looking wristbands

For crossfitters, wristbands are a fashion statement. The offer is huge and the choice depends on the fashion sense your better half, or a friend, has.

10. Olympic weightlifting shoes

Performing Olympic lifts is much safer and more efficient with solid weightlifting shoes. If you are buying a gift for someone who has just enrolled into the world of iron and metal, this is the perfect gift.

11. Mobility tools: Foam roller

Recovery is not just sleeping and eating, but also massaging and working on mobility. Foam roller is a perfect gift for crossfitters who love to spend time in front of TV while also enjoying the pain of myofascial release.

12. Fitness magazine subscription

There are several magazines on the market, offering insights into the world of crossfit, Olympic weightlifting, powerlifting and fitness in general.

13. Velites hand repairing balm

Hand care is part of training or let’s say recovery. Ripped hands mean lower quality training and inefficient performance. Velites hand repairing balm is made entirely out of natural ingredients without any use of chemicals.

14. New tights or training leggings

Because women never have enough of those and their training wardrobe needs to be updated with new leggings on regular basis. And because in winter men also love to wear training tights.  

15. Paleo snacks for hungry athletes

Buy a box or a basket and load it with all kinds of paleo snacks. From beef jerky and bulletproof coffee beans to paleo protein bars and coconut oil, the choice is big.

Coffee isn’t a want, it’s a need ?☕️

16. Training journal to keep track with PRs

To measure the progress, training journal is a must-have. You don’t have to buy the boring black edition, especially when there are so many crossfit-like looking journals available across different online shops.
