Hot Healed Girl Gift Guide 2024- Pilates Princess
This gift guide is for the pilates princess in your life! Pilates has absolutely taken off this past year and it seems like everyone and their mother went from lifting to pilates overnight. That being said, I am absolutely sure that you know at least one pilates princess and she would love anything on this list.
I myself still do a bit of hybrid training but I absolutely love my weekly pilates and would love to strictly do pilates if there was a studio close enough to me. So if you have a pilates lover in your life & don’t want to just pay for her membership or get her an online membership (like Sculpt Society or Form which yearly is the price of a nicer Christmas gift) this is the list for you!
Protein powder- Every pilates princess wants to get in enough protein to rebuild muscle after her class. Equip is the only protein powder that I love myself and recommend to clients. The ingredients are soooo simple which you know I love, it doesn’t taste chalky, is made from 100% grassfed beef, and actually tastes delicious & mixes well. The vanilla is a personal favorite so if you’re a morning smoothie person this is the one I recommend the most! Plus you can save on every order with code THEROOTEDINHEALTH.
Grip Socks- If your pilates princess goes to solidcore, lagree, or any pilates class on a machine (megaformer, xformer etc) she definitely has & is always in need of more grip socks. These ones from pila barre are soooo cute & they have multiple different colors & quotes on them to go with any outfit. I love the hot girls do pilates grip socks so much!
Eye Masks- When I went to a 7AM solidcore class I was in my car before going in & saw a girl with these eye masks on then she took them off before going inside. I asked her about them & she said she loves to habit stack and wear her eye masks on her drive to her morning workout and I thought it was genius. Plus these eye masks are nontoxic and the best bang for your buck that I’ve found for any nontoxic eye mask!
Brumate- Alllll the girlies have been hyping up the brumate as the best tumbler out there. Why you may ask- it has a metal straw so you’re not drinking out of plastic 24/7, it has a lock on the lid so you can turn it upside down & if you hit it over during your pilates class it won’t spill. Plus the bottom will fit in any cupholder & it is a 40 oz cup so you can stay hydrated even if you’re out all day.
Mat bag- If your pilates princess goes to a studio where she needs to bring her mat but also loves to go run errands after this is the perfect gift! This bag has is a built in place for your mat but also a spacious bag to fit anything you need before or after class. I love this personalized one from etsy for a personal touch but there are plenty of other options on Amazon & etsy if you don’t prefer this one or want another color!
E11ement hypochlorous acid spray- Hypochlorous acid spray has gone absolutely viral this year & for good reason. Many people know the Tower28 version but personally I love E11ement. It is made of only water and salt to create Hypochlorous Acid. I love keeping the mini version in my gym bag & car to spray it on my face after a work out to prevent breakouts via killing bacteria. It is a naturally occurring substance that is safe use for all ages and skin types. It also helps with skin redness & irritation so it’s greatttt post any workout!
Pavoi earrings and necklaces- Just about everyone at my pilates studio wear earrings & necklaces during class so they look ready to go run errands or grab a matcha after. Pavoi has beautiful water resistant jewelry at a great pricepoint, I have some of their jewelry and it does not tarnish. Solid gold would probably be the best option for 100% waterproof jewelry but if you’re on a budget this holiday season it is a great second choice!
Bala on the go kit- If your pilates princess doesn’t already have bala bangles, they’re on her wishlist I promise. Even if the studio she goes to has bala bangles I’m sure she would want a pair for her at home practice or traveling. You could get the bangles alone if that is your budget or get this on the go kit that also has the beautiful bala handheld weights too. It’s the gift of pilates anywhere you go!
Electrolytes- Electrolytes are the perfect gift f your girl attends heated pilates especially, but genuinely anyone who sweats is in neeeeed of electrolytes for optimal mineral replenishment after a workout. I prefer pickleball cocktail(found on fullscript) or the relyte linked for optimal mineral ratio(I prefer equal parts sodium, magnesium, and potassium but no electrolyte has that so these are the closest) and mixed berry is my favorite flavor. These also make a great stocking stuffer if you want to break the sticks up and give to the whole family!
Cloud Slippers- Any pilates princess has multiple slide on & slide off shoes to make it easy to take them off before and after class. I love these cloud slippers, which look like ugg dupes but for a fraction of the price. Personally, I get sweaty feet so I refuse to wear $100+ shoes with sweaty feet so I always have separate cheaper shoes just for pre & post class but am not willing to sacrifice style. These are perfect for anyone who lives somewhere with cold winters & never misses a morning workout class.
Sherpa- If your pilates princess lives somewhere that has cold winters she absolutely has a sherpa collection that she wears before an early morning class and she probably would love another. I got this one from Old Navy this year even though I absolutely didn’t need another sherpa but it is soooo soft and cute and I want it in more colors. You can’t go wrong with a sherpa to wear before class & also throw on after for errands or to go get a coffee or matcha.
Puffer Bag- I really wanted to gatekeep this bag so bad so I can get it in every color. This puffer bag from Target is absolutely huge & I throw everything I need for the day in it before heading out the door. It is so massive it can also double as a gym bag or hold your favorite bala bangles or anything else needed for pilates. And at a $25 price point it’s no wonder I want it in every color.
Paragon matching sports bra and leggings- By now I’m sure you already know I am an absolute FIEND for paragon. It is one of the only activewear brands that I wear these days! The leggings don’t have any front seams(a must), they are high quality and don’t pill even after years of wear(unlike some other brands), and are a fraction of the price compared to many other brands. I personally am obsessed with this outfit from paragon, it is highly compressive & holds up in any workout (especially pilates)- I have it in both ink and black and have been eyeing the blackberry for my Christmas list. Plus code THEROOTEDINHEALTH will save you 10% on your entire order!
