Fitness gifts that get results

Since the Christmas shopping frenzy is in full swing, I thought I would give my recommendations for fitness gifts.

As you go through the list you will see it is not equipment that you will see in most homes.

That being said, most fitness equipment in homes (treadmills, stationary bikes, bowflexes, etc.) just end up being a clothes hanger anyway.

Why buy one piece of equipment for $4,000?  It really only does one thing.

With the items listed below, you will get lots of variety, which means you won't get bored, which means you have a greater chance of sticking with your training, and which means a greater chance of success.

I created the list with three ranges, depending on the space you have available.

All equipment listed is available through Rogue Fitness.

I am a big fan of their stuff.  It is well priced, high quality, and can take a beating.

Small space (under 100 sq. feet):

Kettlebells (12kg, 16kg, 20kg, 24kg)
C2 Rower
Rings or Pull-up rig

Medium Space (100-200 square feet):

Kettlebells (12kg, 16kg, 20kg, 24kg)
Squat rack (with pull-up bar)
Olympic bar
Bumper plates
Skipping rope

Large space (200 or more square feet):


Kettlebells (12kg, 16kg, 20kg, 24kg)
Squat rack (with pull-up bar)
Olympic bar
Bumper plates
Glute ham developer
C2 Rower
Skipping rope
D-Ball
Plyo Box

From the items listed you could spend anywhere from a couple hundred bucks to $5,000.

It all comes down to the space you have available and your budget.

Rogue Fitness also has a variety of packages listed on their website that may be more of what you are looking for.

Contact me if you have any questions.

Have a great Christmas!
