15 Best Gifts For Personal Trainers in 2023
Diana Muresan
Finding the right gift for a personal trainer is not as hard as you imagine. Whether you’re looking for a gift to offer as a client or you simply have a friend who is starting out as a fitness trainer, I’ve prepared some ideas for you.
If you’re into fitness yourself, buying something for a personal trainer is way easier, as you have an idea of what a personal trainer needs in his or her daily lifestyle. However, if you need more guidance, here I am.
First of all, you must know that your personal trainer is a very important presence in your life. Even if you didn’t think about it yet, your personal trainer is the one who motivates you when you need it the most.
Well, we love personal trainers and we hate them at the same time, right? Because sometimes it gets so hard, and sometimes we simply want to give up on everything. But the personal trainer then comes again and reminds you why you started.
It is not an easy job. It’s not easy maintaining a 6-pack, and it’s not easy motivating people and always being there for them. Well, after all I’ve said here, do you agree that at special occasions, you’d better look for a gift for your personal trainer? For sure they deserve it after all the efforts. Well, here I’ve prepared for you a list with 15 best gifts for personal trainers in 2023. Holiday season is coming, so keep an eye on these gift ideas. 🙂
1. Gym Backpack
You never know when a backpack is welcomed. Personal trainers are often dressed in sport items, so if they have to carry something with them, a backpack is just perfect. Whether you think she/ she might like an eccentric, colorful backpack or a classic, black and white one, here I found one that is cheap and pretty at the same time.
2. Personalized T-shirt
Finding a useful and funny gift for personal trainers is not really hard. For example, this T-shirt is one that can be worn both at the gym and in the street, with a pair of jeans. If you want more ideas about what quotes you can print on a classic T-shirt as a gift for your personal trainer, check out this fitness quotes article.
3. Gym Water Bottle
You know that moment when you’re at the gym, looking for your bottle of water, and you see on the desk 5 bottles from the same brand? Well, to avoid taking someone else’s bottle, you’d better have a personalized one. As a gift idea for your personal trainer, I’d recommend you to choose a water bottle even more suited to his/ her profession: a dumbbell shaped water bottle.
4. Funny Fitness Coffee Mug
The first coffee in the morning is the “strongest” part of the day. Not to say that personal trainers need more caffeine than others, as they put in more effort. Well, a good way to enjoy the coffee even more is by drinking it in a pretty, personalized fitness trainer mug.
5. Microfibre Gym Towel
A towel is a must have in the gym, but why do I say a microfibre one? Because microfibre towels dry out very quickly, which means they are fast and easy to clean, and they don’t retain moisture during the training sessions.
6. Activity Fitness Tracker
This is a wow gift for everyone who’s practicing sports. This watch has monitoring tools like estimated wrist-based heart rate, stress tracking, relaxation breathing timer, body energy monitor, activity timers for walks, runs, strength training, yoga, pool swims and others, and vibration alerts for all your notifications, including calls, text messages, etc.
7. Fitness Trainer Inspiring Books
Books are always a good idea. If you’re looking for useful gifts for personal trainers, consider these book recommendations I found for you. Business management, nutrition, motivation, or fitness advice from experts are just some of the topics that a personal trainer might be interested in.
8. Inspirational Desk Calendar
I’ve tried it myself, and believe me, when you have such a desk calendar, you can’t wait to get out of bed in the morning. Simply the fact that for every new day in the calendar you have new quotes -that you might identify yourself with-, makes you feel better and start the day with a good mindset. Well, consider it a thank you gift for your personal trainer and hurry up and get one.
9. Portable Speaker
Sometimes we feel like doing something different, about changing something in our daily routine. What exactly can a personal trainer change? Well, for example, the environment where he works. Just organizing out of nowhere a fitness session outdoor. But the trick is that he needs a portable speaker to do that. Without some good music, where’s the fun in working so hard? 🙂
10. Running Phone Holder
I’ve recently noticed that fitness trainers prefer to do their cardio sessions outside, running. As nature is one of the best running destinations possible, every runner has to be well prepared, with all the accessories with them. One of the most important accessories in this case is a running phone holder. It is simply a phone case that can be sticked on the arm, making the running session safer and more comfortable.
11. Six Sided Exercise Dice
If your personal trainer constantly does the same training sessions and you think it’s time for a little change in your workout, well, these six sided dice are the perfect way to make a spontaneous change in your workout. This gift for personal trainers is ideas when we talk about group fitness sessions, but it can be used for individual ones too. The dice has funny exercises on its side, including jumping jacks, crunches, squats, push ups, and the rep counts are 30, 60, 90 seconds or 10, 20, 30 reps. How does it work? Really simple: you roll the dice and you perform the exercise written on the upper side.
12. Healthy Snack Box
We’re all crazy about snacks, and it is really hard to resist when you see some of them on the table. If you want to make a fitness trainer happy, spoil him or her with a protein snack box. Those shacks are low in carbs and contain many proteins and healthy fat.
13. Protein Shaker
The holy protein after a workout deserves a pretty personalized shaker, don’t you think? As to myself, the moment you enjoy the protein is the best part when you go to the gym. For dissolving the protein powder properly, you must have a shaker especially created for this drink.
14. Pain Relieving Creams
If you ever had a muscle tension or suffered a joint pain, you know exactly how important a pain relieving or an anti-inflammatory cream is. Because of tiredness, wrong posture in performing the exercise or simply because of too much effort, some joint or muscle pain can appear. Well, a useful gift idea for personal trainers is a cream that can be applied immediately in order to reduce pain or to relax the muscles.
15. Compression Knee Sleeves
Compression sleeves also help to stabilize the muscle and decrease the amount of muscular vibration, resulting in decreased fatigue. They also increase the blood flow and quicker the recovery process.
