I’m always game to get my sweat on with cardio kickboxing, cycling and running sprints set to some of my favorite songs. And, I must admit, there is nothing quite like an exercise-induced adrenaline rush on a warm, sunny day.

Busy schedules and faltering willpower means I’m not even the most hardcore exercise enthusiast (shoutout to my aunt who literally lives to exercise). For her, exercising every day of the week is a non-negotiable feat, even during cold, rainy and wintry months. Trust me, if I asked her what she’s doing right now, well, she would probably be on a Stairmaster machine during the call.

How We Made Our Decision

First-hand Testing

I’ve noted the products where I have personally tested and recommended a product. Our goal is that every recommendation that comes from the Atmosphere content team should have a personal stamp of approval. If it’s not something we would highly recommend to our friends and family, we won’t add it to our list.

Comfort

For our cold-adversant friends and family, heat, comfort and product quality was of the utmost importance when curating this list. Fabric quality should be comfortable, moisture-wicking and warm for those outdoor adventures.

Price

Everyone has a different threshold for gift giving, and our intent was to offer a variety of items at different price points for every budget. From a pair of budget-friendly gloves to handy home appliances, we made sure to include a number of different price points for every shopper.

Reviews

We let the reviewers speak for themselves. If a product has few (or no) verified reviewers, or the complaints outweigh the purpose and price of the product, we won’t feature it in our lists.

Price accurate and item in stock at time of publish.
