11. LARQ Self Cleaning Water bottle $95 livelarq.com  

The LARQ water bottle is the first of its kind.  It is truly an all-in-one bottle, with self cleaning capabilities so that you don’t have to waste time trying to get your water bottle clean.  The bottle “uses patented UV-C technology to purify your water and bottle at the touch of a button.  The bottle intelligently turns on every two hours to purify both the water you put inside as well as the inside of the bottle.  The UV-C light eradicates biological contaminants by destroying their DNA”.

12. Living Proof Perfect Hair Day dry shampoo $25.00 livingproof.com  

Every fitness enthusiast and avid gym goer knows that a dry shampoo is necessary in a gym bag.  Sometimes there just isn’t enough time after a workout for washing, drying and styling hair.  But not all shampoos are created equally.    The Perfect Hair Day dry shampoo by Living Proof is cruelty-free, paraben-free, silicone-free and safe for all chemically treated hair.  It truly absorbs the oil and sweat after a workout and hair will look amazing for days!  

13. All in Motion kettlebell, 15 lb $39.99 target.com   

The kettlebell is an incredibly versatile workout partner, and makes a great gift for the workout-at-home enthusiast.  This kettlebell is coated along the bottom with vinyl, which helps protect your floor and surfaces from scratches like a traditional steel framed kettlebell. The bright coloring makes for a cheery addition to a piece of workout equipment.   A 15 pound kettlebell is a great medium weight size, but Target also offers others if lighter or heavier is preferred.

14. Ciele Athletics GoCap Century Running Hat $39.95 jackrabbit.com

The Ciele Athletics running hat is super lightweight, comfortable and moisture wicking.  With a pliable brim and soft machine washable fabric, the hat can be easily stored and packed away.  My favorite feature is the reflective detailing on the front and back, which really helps for those early morning or late night runs in the winter.  

15. Trigger Point Grid Foam Roller $59.99 roguefitness.com

This Trigger Point foam roller is hands down the best foam roller!  It has a hard, hollow core then wrapped in foam for a sturdy yet comfortable roll.  With strategically placed grooves along the entire roller, you are sure to reach even the hardest to reach pressure points, making it seem closer to the feel of a massage.  One bonus: if you want to travel with a foam roller, this hollow core makes it great for storing clothes in so that you can maximize space efficiently!
