This year, get your Mum a gift that's functional and life-enhancing. If you've got a Mum who likes early morning jogs, weekend Pilates or just getting extra steps in, we've got you covered with hundreds of discounted products this Mother's Day.
Here are our top 5 picks for pampering your fitness Mum.
The machine that needs no introduction. The Pilates Reformer is becoming one of the most popular ways to improve fitness, mobility, stamina and flexibility. They're powerful tools for a low-impact, full-body workout that can be catered to all fitness levels. It's also a workout that's gentle on the joints, making it a great choice for seniors.
If you've already got a Pilates Mum who goes to classes at a studio, then why not let her enjoy her own machine? This allows her to get a complete Pilates workout in her own space and in her own time.
Lifespan Fitness has a range of Reformers that are designed to fit neatly in any space, including compact, foldable models as well as commercial-grade studio machines.
Another iconic piece of home fitness equipment is the Walking Pad. These clever machines are designed to fit seamlessly into anyone's space and anyone's lifestyle. If you have a busy Mum or just one who appreciates being neat and tidy, the Walking Pad is the perfect solution.
With clever smart features like adaptive speed control, child locks and an LED display, they're designed for an effortless hop-on-and-go experience.
It's a stylish, practical gift that gets in your daily steps without even having to try.
We have to mention Rowing Machines here because they're one of our favourites when it comes to low-impact, full-body workouts that deliver exceptional results.
Rowing Machines are a one of the kind, delivering a comprehensive cardio and strength workout that traditional machines just can't beat.
By getting your Mum a Rowing Machine, you're unlocking one of the best ways to achieve full-body fitness from the comfort of home.
A classic home cardio option is the spin bike. This a great choice if you're Mum doesn't have a particular leaning to any one kind of workout. They're great all-rounder fitness machines that can be catered to anyone's level of fitness or mobility.
Spin bikes work to boost stamina, burn calories and build endurance, all while building lower body and core strength.
If your Mum has extra mobility issues or joint pain, you could also consider a recumbent bike. These are designed with a reclined position to place less stress on the back and create a safer overall experience.
For Mums who want a full-body, low-impact workout that's easy on the joints, a cross trainer (or elliptical) is a smart choice. With a Cross Trainer, they'll enjoy a smooth gliding motion that's kind to knees and hips. They're especially beneficial for those recovering from an injury or looking for a gentler way to stay fit.
Lifespan Fitness ellipticals are also quiet, space-efficient and simple to use, making them a great fit for home use.
For a machine that targets both the upper and lower body while protecting the joints, the elliptical delivers results with comfort and convenience.
You don't have to get a full machine to pamper your Mum this year. We have a range of smaller tools and accessories that can still deliver a great workout.
Dumbbells, kettlebells and weight plates are underrated tools for achieving a solid functional workout that scales to your needs and goals. Your Mum can use free weights for building strength, amplifying a cardio session or for complementing their routine.
These diverse and adaptable tools will please any fitness Mum, especially if you find good quality set that will last.
Skipping ropes are also somewhat underappreciated in the fitness world, creating a fun, high-intensity cardio workout that increases speed and agility. Get this for the energetic Mums who want to build some serious stamina.
Aerobic Steps are nifty little tools for step workouts. These are also for the Mums that love a real cardio burn, but they can also be modulated for a more basic mobility workout.
No home fitness setup is truly complete without some good quality flooring. If your Mum already has a fitness space they use regularly, then one of the best gifts you can give her is a supportive base to complement it. Flooring helps cushion and protect joints during your workout, as well as protecting your floors and your equipment.
Order early to avoid delivery delays and make this Mother's Day one to remember and appreciate. Shop the collection now! Need help choosing the perfect gift? Get in touch with our friendly team here.
