Go beyond the traditional Father's Day gifts this year, foregoing the tie, shirt, and cologne. Instead, make an investment in dad's well-being by presenting him with the gift of good health. With professional gyms and studios across the country limiting their capacity, it's the perfect time to bring his workout closer to home.
Here are some suggestions:
- A jogging stroller for new fathers. Armin Brott, author of many books on fatherhood, tells WebMD that this stroller is a great way for dads to get into shape while keeping an eye on their offspring.
- Suunto 7 Smartwatch. According to Men's Health, this smartwatch is ideal for the outdoor adventurer. It has a built-in GPS, barometer, and heart rate sensor, along with 70 activity tracking modes.
- Adjustable dumbbells. These adjustable dumbbells are really smart. Bowflex makes the SelectTech 552 series that ranges in weight sizes from 5 to 52.5 pounds in one piece of equipment.
- Crossrope weighted jump. This super cool gadget combines the best of both worlds: a jump rope for cardiovascular fitness and weights to give you resistance, according to Men's Health.
- Everlast PowerCore Freestanding Heavy Bag. Here's an ideal gift for the dad who loves throwing punches and wants to release the built-up tension of the past few months in the comfort of his own home.
- Under Armour Beyond Stainless Steel Water Bottle. This is a really cool thermos that keeps water at the perfect temperature and won't get squashed in his gym bag.
- All out Studio App. According to Women's Health, dad will have his pick of hundreds of workouts with world-class trainers designed to help you get fit at home.
- Men's Wool Runners. Made by Allbirds, these super-soft running shoes fit his every move, according to Women's Health.
