Fit with Finesse's Favorite Things

The holiday season is here and the lists of things to buy, holiday parties to attend and dishes to whip up continues to get longer. Well, with this list we are helping you think about one less thing. We all have one fitness-obsessed friend or family member, or that person who is vowing to get started living a healthier lifestyle in 2020.

We are sharing our favorite finds from this year to help make your holiday shopping list a little lighter.

Ziya Active

“Skeptical” isn’t even the correct word to describe how we originally felt about Ziya. We were more like downright defiant about the brand.

What was it? Where did it come from? How did all these sellers pop up so fast? The workout gear can’t be that good, right? Why would we pay for leggings at that price point? We were wrong, ya’ll. Ziya’s “Light n Tight” leggings have become one of our favorite purchases this year and they hold up. The high-waist, compressive material keeps everything tucked in and smooth. The waistline does not slip when working out and they make your legs look so shapely. Oh, and the designs are cute. You’ve heard us say it quite a few but, when you look good, you feel good…and those workouts just get better. Let’s be honest. This gift is simply best for Y-O-U. We all have those treat yo’self moments when holiday shopping. If you love working out or have already set your eyes on a fit lifestyle in 2020, start it off feeling and looking good.

Rifle Paper Co. Canteen

We took one look at this canteen and had to have it. It screams Fit with Finesse.

Stationary brand, Rifle Paper Co., partnered with Corckcicle for a collection and whoever was in the room during the design session hit a win. We fell in love with the “Sports Girl” design. Girls of all colors participating in boxing, skiing, surfing, gymnastics and more. This would be the perfect gift for your fit friend who likes to accessorize and keeps a cup of something good in hand. The canteen keeps drinks ice cold for up to 25 hours or hot for up to 12. But it online here.

Spri Workout Dice

Working out should be fun, not a chore. We like to get creative when we are building workouts for our clients.

This dice comes with a twist. One provides options for workouts like squats and lunges. Roll the other for how much time or how many reps you are in that move. If you have to workout, why not make it a game. This gift is great for your friend who is a fitness trainer, or likes to go hard with creating their own workouts. Grab a pair here.

Brooks Ghost 12

Have a friend that is a runner? Do their feet a favor.

Training for her first half marathon, CaCera had to buy some new shoes. Everyone raves of Brooks and now we know why. They really do feel like little clouds on your feet! This summer, the brand released The Melt Collection. A line of shoes that are fun and comfortable. CaCera bought the Sprinkle and again, we’re winning at the intersection of looking good while sweating hard. Get ready to lace up with this great buy.

Hyperice Hypervolt Percussion Massager

A DIY Massage from the heavens? Sign Me Up!

We were introduced to the Hypervolt massaging tool at our gym. At first it was a little intimidating, until you turned it on. This quiet, three-speed, and portable tool provides a deep tissue massage that can help relieve muscle pain and stiffness, while improving range of motion. Originally, percussion massagers were mostly used by those who worked in physical therapy and practice chiropractic procedures. Now, you can get the benefit of customized recovery leading to a better workout and reduced injury risks. Check it out here.

Blue Apron

There are a lot of meal delivery kits out there, but Blue Apron continues to be a Fit with Finesse favorite.

Blue Apron is the gift that keeps on giving. Whether it’s a gift for that busy friend who loves to cook healthy meals, but needs a break from grocery shopping, or a couple looking to get healthier together, Blue Apron give you all the ingredients you need to make a great dinner. You can choose vegetarian, vegan or regular, and if you love to cook, they keep their recipes online for inspiration! Grab a $50 off coupon here.

F45 x FWF

Whether it’s teaching or just a member, F45 proved to be a FWF Favorite!

F45 is one of the fastest growing fitness studios in the world, and it’s not hard to see why. F45 is a 45-minute HIIT style workout that mixes cardio and strength-training, giving you a full-body, sweat dripping workout every time. As we both trained for major goals this year, CaCera focused on a Spartan Super race while Shawnie did a figure competition, we relied on F45 to keep us on track. What we love most about this studio is the the community aspect. It’s not hard to find your fit tribe in this space! Planning to catch up with friends this holiday season? Why not switch it up from the typically dinner/drinks routine and book you both in a class in your local city as a gift? Get moving together and catch up over healthy smoothies after.
