How to buy for a gym lover

Gym people have strong preferences for gear, so check the model, size and brand. Recovery, comfort and event entries are safer picks than new equipment.

Avoid weight-loss or body-shaming gifts, even as jokes.

Order dates

Shoes and watches should be ordered by early December. Class packs, entries and a personalized game can be sorted much later.
