TRX (Total Body Resistance exercise)
TRX was developed by navy SEAL, Randy Hetrick, while serving overseas, he created the original “TRX” out of his a set of workout bands and straps. Because suspension training relies entirely upon your own body weight, you can easily adjust the straps and feet or hand positions to make it harder or easier. Use it anywhere— in your home, outdoors or on trips for strength, cardio and flexibility training.
Lebert Equalizer Bars
Another fun way to mix up Dad’s training routine. These are great for upper body and core strength but also can be used for lower body and cardio.
Ultimate Sandbag Package
Use this for upper body, lower body, total body resistance. Easily adjust the weight with added sand bags. You can buy an official sandbag with the bags to fill with sand or use a sturdy duffel bag filled with sand or cat litter, etc. This can be used in a plethora of ways for interesting and creative weighted exercises. The Ultimate is $127; Ultimate Sandbag Starter Bags are $48.

Not sure what to get? Let him decide with Lumoid
Buy him a LUMOID trial. They great selection of all kinds of gadgets from wearables to cameras, sports watches and fitness trackers – your “rental” will allow you to test drive up to 5 devices for a short period of time.

Waterproof ipod: What swimmer wouldn’t want a Waterproof Apple iPod Shuffle to help make all those laps go by faster. $169 It also comes in red and blue, $179.
Yurbuds Inspire 300 Fitness Headphones (in red)

Keep the Stink Out!
Sweaty workouts can quickly lead to aromatic issues. Get your guy these odor-resistant socks, which are also environmentally friendly – it’s a win-win.
We also like EAGEGOF Organic Bamboo T-Shirts. They’re guaranteed to be more absorbent, odor resistant, hypoallergenic, with big elasticity, strong perspiration permeability, uneasy deformation anti-bacterial, odor control, moisture breathable, blocking UV rays.
We also like Vitalsox Odor Control Crew Socks;
they’re infused with silver for a natural bacteria resistant, wicking and quick drying material.
Keep it “fun.”
Choose one of these humorous gym shirts.
