Christmas ideas for the CrossFitter... or any athlete!

Tis the season for giving!  I can think of no better gift to give than one of good health. Here are some great holiday gift ideas for that health enthusiast in your life.  If you’re anything like me, you’ll be buying two of everything.  One to give and one to keep!


Lululemon
As a Lululemon Addict I feel the need to spread my passion to others, as I'm sure you all do. Now that I've seen the light I can't understand how people can continue to work out in baggy old cotton tee shirts, ill fitting pants, and generally uncomfortable clothes when they could look and feel so much better. So workout clothing from Lululemon is definitely a topper on my list and my list for others.  

Gymboss Interval Timer
Train like a BOSS with one of these Gymboss interval timers that comes in a cool array of colors and make for the perfect stocking stuffer. 

Lunchbots
These stainless steel food containers are the best way to give green!  No BPA or toxins in your food when you use these and they are better for the environment than typical plastic food containers.  They come in an assortment of colors and can be purchased alone or in sets. No more unhealthy lunches for yourself or the kids!  Oh, and they fit inside the Six Pack Cooler Bags!

Books
These are just a few of my favorites reads from the past year that deal with nutrition, running or CrossFit. 

• Power Speed Endurance
• Wheat Belly
• It Starts With Food
• Pre Order - Becoming a Supple Leopard
• Born to Run
• Strengths Finder 2.0

RX Jump Rope
In my opinion, the best jump rope! This has helped me learn my double unders in no time and you can customize it to your own length.  Plus, you can choose the thickness & color rope & handle you want!
