With Christmas creeping up you may be thinking about what to buy friends and family. In this blog we will look at some gift ideas that all fitness enthusiasts will appreciate this year.
Whey Protein
Whey Protein is always a safe Christmas purchase for anyone who is involved in fitness (Vegan alternatives available). Whey Protein is perfect for anyone who is looking to build muscle, drop body fat or just maintain muscle. Whatever their goal, Whey Protein will always be useful to have around.
Types of Whey Protein
Whey Concentrate 80 - Whey Concentrate 80 is 80% protein and great value. This isn't the leanest form of protein however it still offers great macros per serving.
Whey Isolate 95 - Whey Isolate 95 is 95% protein and one of the leanest protein sources available. For anyone looking to keep calories low and protein high, Whey Isolate 95 is perfect for that.
Creatine Monohydrate
Creatine Monohydrate is arguably the most popular supplement in 2024 due to the proven benefits that it provides. Creatine helps improve exercise performance and increase muscle growth. Not only has creatine been proven to have these physical benefits, it has more recently been found to help improve cognitive function and natural energy levels.
Protein Bars
Christmas isn't Christmas without chocolate but when buying for a fitness enthusiast, they love their protein. Protein Bars not only let them enjoy some chocolate but they will get a hit of protein too. Protein Bars are something that are always handy to have around for them days when protein may be lacking.
Amino Acids
If someone is involved heavily in sports and fitness, recovery is key and this is where Amino Acids become useful. Amino Acids are the 'building blocks' of muscle. Through our diet, we don't get all the essential amino acids therefore supplementing with a BCAA or EAA can help enhance recovery and spike muscle protein synthesis.
Shaker Bottle
Everyone who goes to the gym will need a Shaker Bottle, whether they use supplements or not, a Shaker will come in handy. A shaker can be used as a normal water bottle or to mix supplements like Whey Protein. A Shaker makes for a perfect stocking filler this Christmas.
BW+
BW+ is a yearly membership that is perfect for anyone involved in fitness. With BW+ you can get a year of free next day delivery on all your supplements meaning you never miss out on the gains. If you know someone who regularly uses supplements, signing them up for BW+ would make for a great Christmas Gift.
E-Gift Card
