It’s the first of December and we are officially approaching Christmas at breakneck speed. I find this to be equal parts exciting and scary. Exciting because I love Christmas – scary because I haven’t done any of my Christmas shopping yet.
If you’re also struggling for ideas, and you’re looking to buy for someone in your life who is into fitness – I’ve got you sorted. Have a scroll through the below gift guide and pick a present according to your budget – under $30, under $50 and under $100. I’ve also included an all-prices list just in case you don’t want to put a budget on your love for someone. (Who wants to buy me a new surfboard?)

What are you buying for your fitness-loving friends this Christmas?

My tip is to buy your GoPro from a store rather than direct online. We made that mistake last year. We got it and it was faulty. So the much awaited christmas present was a dud and nobody could help us until their call centre reopened after the holidays. We then sent it back and didnt get the replacement for a few more weeks.
At least if you buy it here you can hopefully get a replacement from the shop you got it from straight away!
Just a hint: don't buy any bikinis or sports bras for your friend unless you know her size, because not all women fit into the standard S, M, L, XL etc size and need cup-sized bras and bikinis. I've had to return a LOT of bikinis because of this (so disappointing, all were so pretty!), so it's better just to ask your friend if they have any bikinis on their wishlist and what size they'd like it in!
