Hi everyone! I’m on my way to Tahoe, but I was lucky enough to get an email from a reader asking to guest post on Apple of My Eye! While the holidays may be over, the post-Christmas sales are here and ready to be taken advantage of. I know from experience how hard it is to think of the perfect gift for the men in your life, especially since I love to give personalized gifts, so Quinn’s post about finding great active gifts for guys really hits the nail on the head for me!

That being said, it is sometimes hard to find the perfect gift for guys who like to stay active and healthy. The great news is that there are tons of gifts out there that are the prefect way to please any health junkie. Here are five gift ideas you may want to consider for that fitness nut in your life! Personalized Golf Balls
If there is one thing that men love to do, it is play golf with their friends. If that special someone you love is a big golfer, chances are that they have most of the essential golf items that they need. That is when personalized golf balls are a great gift. You can customize them any way that you want! It also helps the person that is receiving the gift to stand out on the golf course when they play with their friends. I bought my husband some from RedEnvelope’s Gifts for Dad site last spring – safe to say, more of them landed in the woods than on the green. Gym Membership When buying a gift for a health nut, what is better than buying them a gym membership! Buying them a gym membership not only gives them something that they can actually use, but it also shows them that you support their active lifestyle. A gym membership is a gift that just keeps on giving and is a great way for someone to kick off the New Year. Weighted Vest
If the person you are buying a gift for is into cardio, you may want to consider getting them a weighted vest. This is a great gift for people who are looking to make their cardio workout just a little bit harder. The weighted vest is the best way to not only build extra muscle, but to really increase endurance as well. It is simply perfect for anyone who likes working out at home or at the gym! Workout Gloves Workout gloves are always another great option when buying gifts for active people. When a person lifts weights, cracks and calluses can form on their hands. This can make it painful and uncomfortable to work out. If it gets too bad, it can keep that person from doing what they love to do, which is staying physically active. Workout gloves not only help give them a better grip, but they can also help protect their hands from damage. Healthy Cookbook Working out is just half the battle when it comes to staying in shape, but sometimes eating healthy does not always taste good. Ensure that your guy does not become bored with his diet by buying him a healthy cookbook. These books are full of different meals that can help him build up the energy that he needs for the perfect workout. Finding the perfect gifts for people is hard. This goes double when they are into working out and staying physically active. However, by using some of these tips, you can rest assured that you will find the perfect holiday gift for your special someone!
