We all have a friend who’s constantly in the gym. In fact, the gym might be the only thing they ever talk about! When it comes to your gym-bunny friends’ birthdays, you may be a bit stumped for gift ideas. There’s no point buying them chocolates or candies; how about buying them something they can use for their training sessions? Here are some fab gift ideas for your gym-obsessed mates!

1. An awesome gym bag

We all get bored of carrying the same old bag with us each time we head to the gym. I’m sure your friend will love a change! Especially if it’s a good quality, trustworthy bag. That means one that isn’t going to break after a couple of uses. It needs to be large enough for the days he or she has their yoga, spinning and pilloxing classes one after another. And that means plenty of space for a spare change of clothes!

2. A new foam roller

You can’t have too many foam rollers after a hard gym session! Using one of these can help with all those aches and pains. We’re sure your friend will be over the moon when they unwrap their roller. If they haven’t used one before, their workout life will be changed forever! Simply rolling one over post-workout muscles helps relieve any painful exercising aches.

3. New gym clothes

You can never have too many clothes – this also includes gym clothes! From chic yoga tops to a pair of stylish leggings, your friend will appreciate some stylish clothes. Make sure you know buy some gear that fits in with their workout of choice. There’s no point buying a swimmer a new pair of running shoes!

4. Some new weights

If your gym bunny friend loves pumping iron in the gym, buy them some dumbbells or kettlebells so they can start training at home. You’ll need to get an idea of the kinds of weight they are already lifting, so you can buy yours accordingly. There’ll be no point buying weights that are either too light or way too heavy, as it could cause an injury.

5. Training technology

In today’s modern world, you can buy many accessories which are great for tracking workout sessions. Why not opt for a Fitbit so your friend can track their diet as well as how many calories they are burning on a daily basis. If your budget can’t stretch to a Fitbit, there are cheaper alternatives. You can keep it very basic and buy accessories that simply track how many steps the wearer does in a day.

6. A slap-up meal

What does every trainer want after a gruelling gym session? Loads of protein and carbs! Why not take your friend out for a meal in their favourite restaurant? As well as tucking into an amazing meal, you can both enjoy a long overdue catch-up and compare your gym stories.
So now you know exactly what to buy your gym-obsessed friend, you’ll be wishing birthdays came around more often than just once a year!

Wojo Nutrition Brings Health Home for the Holidays

Whether you’re looking for on-the-go energy or the perfect gift, the Wojo Holiday Gift Set has a carefully crafted pick-me-up that’s right for you.

Bring health and happiness to everyone on that holiday list, with Wojo Nutrition's Holiday Gift Set and its unique, wellness-inducing formulas.  

Every day brings its own surprises, so why take a one-size-fits-all multivitamin? At Wojo Nutrition, they have created a series of single serving liquid supplements that can be blended in any hot or cold beverage to deliver specific results like a boost of energy, a sense of calm, or a ray of focus. 

Each of their supplements are crafted with ingredients that support one’s overall health and metabolism. Depending on its intended use, its base formula of 6 B vitamins is then enhanced with a blend of herbal extracts, or naturally derived amino acids and vitamins. As an added bonus, their creations are free of sugar, artificial sweeteners and flavorings, and chemical masking agents.

Not only are Wojo Nutrition's liquid supplements an easy way to stay healthy during the busy holiday season, but also a gift that will keep on giving. 

They have recently released their Wojo Holiday Gift Set, featuring one pack of each of their three current offerings: wojoENERGY, wojoCALM, and wojoFOCUS. From students to office workers to marathon runners, there’s something for everyone hiding behind its fun trimmings.

In honor of the season of giving, Wojo Nutrition will donate $2 for every gift set sold on their website throughout the entire month of December to the National CASA Association, a non-profit organization who has been advocating for abused and neglected children since 1977. 

Wojo Nutrition spent over two years developing their special formulations before bringing them to market in January 2015, and have only continued to improve on them. Carol Knowles, CEO, launched the brand as a way to provide men and women with a supplement that lets them focus on their journey—not just surviving from day to day. Sometimes that means harnessing more energy, focus, or a better mood to face what’s ahead, and that’s where Wojo gives the body and mind a gentle nudge in the right direction. 

Chili Technology has officially launched our "Gift of Sleep" campaign that we are running throughout the holiday season. Chili Technology is giving away a ChiliPad Cube this holiday season to one deserving individual with a compelling story who is nominated by a loved one.

ChiliPad is a temperature-regulated mattress pad that regulates the surface temperature of each side of the bed so that users sleep comfortably all night long. It uses water to achieve a wide range of in-bed temperatures. With this technology, the water can change from 55 to 110 degrees fahrenheit.

With the heavy emphasis of consumerism during the holidays, the purpose of our contest is to shift the focus and help out someone who is in need this holiday season. The end of the year is a stressful time for everyone and Chili Technology understands how vital a good night’s sleep is to overall well being, which is why we have chosen this time of year to giveaway a ChiliPad Cube to someone who is in need of a restful night’s sleep.
