What are the best Christmas Gifts for Gym Lovers

There’s no easier person to shop for than a gym lover. The possibilities are endless — protein, snacks, lifting accessories, clothes, gym bag, shaker. I could go on.

 

New products, just for Christmas...

Impact Whey Protein - Pumpkin Spice & Cinnamon Danish

Get festive with your flavours this year and mix up your post-workout shake with Pumpkin Spice and Cinnamon Danish Impact Whey Protein. The same high-quality whey protein, packing 18g per serving, wrapped up in comforting seasonal flavours.

Haters may say pumpkin spice is as basic as it gets, but this Pumpkin Spice Impact Whey Blend is anything but. And Cinnamon Danish packs a flavourful punch to let your taste-buds know, Christmas has definitely arrived.

 

Hotel Chocolat is back...

They quickly became a cult classic last year, and so they're back again for Christmas 2022. This time, there are two brand-new flavours coming. But you'll have to wait until they're released to get the details.

But what we can say, is that one Hotel Chocolat Layered Bar packs loads of festive, indulgent flavour, while still delivering a whopping 18g of protein. Thank us later.

 

Gingerbread Layered Bars

Another festive favourite is the Gingerbread Layered Bar. Another perfect stocking filler for anyone always on the hunt for a quick protein snack. Six layers of taste, texture and flavour, packing a huge 20g of protein. Get festive with your post-workout snack, you know you want to...

 

Clothing Gifts for Men

One thing you can never have too much of — gym clothes. The more you have, the less you have to turn your washing machine on, which sounds like a win to me. So, this Christmas, give the gift of style, and let your gym buddy be better dressed than you.

Limited Edition MP Men’s Oversized T- Shirt - Dark Olive

An oversized fit is a staple in any gym wardrobe. They go with pretty much anything and they’re super comfy — especially after treating yourself to more than four servings of Christmas dinner. Actually, you might just want to buy this one for yourself.

Limited Edition MP Men's Dynamic Training Shorts - Washed Black

When style meets function — a true Christmas romance. But seriously, these should be going straight in your basket. But only your favourite gym partner deserves something as nice as these. (But shh, don’t tell the others.)

MP Men's Rest Day Hoodie - Black

Whether your mate likes to train in layers, or just chooses to protect themselves from the elements on the way into the gym. Whatever their motives, they can’t go wrong with a simple black hoodie.

MP Men's Original Drop Armhole Tank Top - Black

For the friend that likes to give the rest of the gym a free ticket to the gun show. Let them show off that pump in style.

MP Men's Rest Day Joggers - Navy

A trip to the shops, lounging around on the sofa, working from home, training with mates — all perfect opportunities to wear MP joggers.

MP Men's Crew Socks - White (2 Pack)

If you fancy taking on the role of mum this year, then buying socks for everyone is a sure-fire way to achieve that. And I guarantee you that the next time you see your mates they’ll be sporting their fresh, crisp new socks.

 

Clothing Gifts for Women

Even just getting ready for the gym as a woman can be an ordeal. So many great fits to wear, and only one body to wear them on. And I wouldn’t have it any other way. Go on and make your friend’s life that little bit harder for them when deciding what to wear. I dare you.

 

Limited Edition MP Women's Training Seamless Leggings - Dark Olive

One of the downsides of the festive period — limited edition goods that you’d like to be available all year round. And these leggings are no exception. Encourage everyone in your kettlebell class to get a pair and workout in style.

Limited Edition MP Women's Training Seamless Sports Bra - Dark Olive

There’s nothing like a full set. It’d be rude not to get the matching sports bra too.

MP Women's Power Mesh Slim Fit Jacket – Black

If you’ve been anywhere near “FitTok”, you’ll be clued into the BBL jacket. And this is our version. Maybe give this one to your PT and she might even avoid putting split squats in your workouts in January.

MP Women's 1/4 Zip Fleece - Black

This will fast become a daily staple for whoever's stocking this fleece ends up in. There’s handy pockets at the front with zips to keep their phone, keys and headphones safe. Oh, it’s also thermal and super toasty.

MP Women's Velocity Ultra Cropped Gilet - Black

Whoever is on the receiving end of this gilet must be up there with one of your favourite people — because this is a gift and a half. We’re talking style, comfort and practicality. And forget just the gym — this is for all day, every day.

MP Women's Power Cross Back Sports Bra - Black

Whether you train in just a sports bra, or like your sports bra straps to show up through your backless gym top — this is the perfect edition to any gym wardrobe. It’s just too nice not to gift.

MP Women's Power Open Back Crop Top - Orchid

The aforementioned backless gym top. Super-flattering back detail and an elasticated waist, it’s a perfect match for high-waisted leggings.

MP Women's Rest Day Relaxed Fit Joggers - Grey Marl

For lounging around, or to chuck on over some shorts on the way to the gym in those crisp January months. Either way we’d consider them a necessity, and we think your friends would too.

MP Women's Shape Seamless Cycling Shorts - Navy

You might think it’s the wrong season for cycling shorts — but that’s where you’re wrong. These are a guaranteed crowd-pleaser no matter the season, but you might want to double them up with the joggers from above when putting them under the tree.

 

What are the best nutrition Christmas Gifts

Bundles. It’s simple. Our bundles are the best nutrition Christmas gifts out there. The elves at Myprotein have been working away to make sure the bundles are carefully crafted to include the best combination of supplements and treats. Basically, everything you need to fill a stocking, all in one place.

Vitamins have actually never tasted this good. And they’re good for you too.

The Gainer Bundle

For the friend waiting until their New Year’s resolution to take over to reach their goals – help them along the way with the popular gainer bundle. It’s bulking made easy.

Pancake Bundle

The essential ingredients for an Insta-worthy pancake stack. Gifting done right.

Christmas Bundle

It wouldn’t be the festive season without a new bundle to treat your friends to. But watch out, when they’re gone, they’re gone. Damn you, limited edition products.

Christmas Gifts for Home Workouts

Home workouts have become a common activity for many of us. Saving money on a gym membership, saving time on the commute, and being that much closer to the protein cupboard post-workout — we can see the appeal. And we’ve got plenty of goodies to fill your friends' home gyms.

Multi Use 11 Piece Resistance Band Set - Multi

Two leg straps, two foam handles, one door anchor, five resistance tubes, and a nylon carry bag. Now that’s what I call a Christmas present.

Ab Roller

A tool to destroy their abs quickly is at the top of the list for many gym-goers. Don’t try to understand it.

Exercise Ball and Pump

The possibilities are endless with exercise balls – the perfect partner for all kinds of workouts. And it arrives deflated, so don’t worry about having to use an entire roll of wrapping paper wrapping it up.

Grip Strengthener

Don’t let their grip strength prevent them from meeting new PBs. And they can strengthen their grip while binge watching their go-to TV show. Win. And there’s no better gift than the gift of grip strength.

Yoga Recovery Mat - Grey

Yogi or not. Everyone could do with a yoga mat tucked away in the back of their cupboard.

Booty Band - Heavy - Grey

The extra bit of resistance needed to really burn the glutes. Tucked up nicely in a handy bag — it’s basically made for gifting.

Metal Shaker

And finally, the gift at the top of everyone’s wish list — a shaker to replace the one that’s probably seen a little too much action. And, since it’s Christmas, why not take it up a level and treat your friends to a metal shaker?

Take Home Message

If you know anyone struggling to think of gifts for gym lovers, you may as well send them this gift guide. What more could you want? It’s basically a bible of the ultimate presents for gym-goers.
