When you move, the interior steel balls roll through the tube, to up the challenge of strength, flexibility, balance and cardio to your workouts.

AcuMobility: Save 15% on AcuMobility Products + Free Shipping (No Code Needed).

Also, their amazing Eclipse Roller is like no other, as it has targeted zones that help you dig into trigger points and break up facia faster so you can get back to doing the things you love most! AcuMobility also has other gear like floss bands and mobility balls too!

Rocket Book:  When I’m writing up my workouts and tracking progress, it’s sort of an ordeal to take an old-school notebook to the gym. Pages get sweaty or ripped, it’s bulky, it’s a waste of paper. But with a Rocket Book, I can write out everything I need to remember on the reusable, wipe-clean pages with the included Pilot FriXion pen and then blast out my notes to Google Drive, Dropbox, Evernote, Box, OneNote, Slack, iCloud and email – then I just pull up the info on my phone at get busy! Prana save 25% code JFISprAna25

Prana: Save 25% with my code JFISprAna thorugh 12/31/18 and free shipping until 12/13/18. If you’ve ever seen my Instagram, it’s safe to say that at least half the time . . .if not MORE, I’m dressed in clothing from my favorite brand, prAna. I love the mindset of this company that uses organic and recycled textiles along with other sustainable fibers that are known to be super eco-friendly, like hemp. I gear myself up for all my adventures like yoga, travel, fitness, and just lounging around or hitting Austin’s laid-back scene. You can find something for everyone on your list, with clothing for both men and women –plus holiday and Christmas gift items.I love the Myobuddy for workout warmup and recovery! Thefitfork.com

Myobuddy Massager: Use code SPJEN to save big time ($100 off), it’s stackable on the already $70 sale price – so you’ll save A LOT, plus free shipping.  I’ve had my Myobuddy now for over a year and it’s an amazing way to bring professional grade deep tissue, warming, trigger point and cutting-edge vibrational massage to soothe sore muscles and easy myofascial pain. The “percussive” vibrations which resonate deep into tissues and increase blood flow to the muscles thusly quickening repair were sweet music to my aching body. The edge can be used to help break up scar tissue and adhesions. Since I have been pulling my rib muscles over and over this year (ugh), it’s been a great addition in my recovery tool box, helping to reach places a traditional foam roller can’t go. Plus, the cord is really long so I can reach it all the way to the couch! 

Desk Cycle: At first, I wasn’t sure if this under desk exercise bike and pedal exercisers was worthy of my, ya know . . badassery. Wink, wink! But, honestly, I was feeling the burn in my quads and got a little extra cardio in the process. Desk Cycle features more than twice the resistance of other pedal exercisers, with eight calibrated resistance settings. I’m a little embarrassed to say I had to set mine in the bottom half.  It’s super low, only 10-inches and can work under desk as low as 27-inches. This desk bike has a pedometer and calorie calculator . . and is also very quiet – this means that if you take it to work, your cubicle neibors won’t have any idea that you are racking up the miles!

Jennifer of thefitfork.com test out Total Gym (and loves it for light workout days and active recovery).

Total Gym: Channeling my inner Chuck Norris (ha, the brand’s spokesperson along with Christie Brinkley) on the Total Gym – it’s an awesome piece of home workout equipment that’s been helping me get a full-body workout in on the days when I can’t make it to the gym. Because the Total Gym creates resistance with your bodyweight and the angle of incline, it can be set as easy or hard as you need – there are literally HUNDREDS of exercise you can do (see my past post here). It also comes ready to set up in just a few minutes (seriously, I set up my own alone) with no tools necessary.

wiivv custom sandals and custom insoles - salve 20% code FITFORK20

Wiivv Custom Footwear: Save 20% with my discount code FITFORK20   Wiivv has been SAVING MY FEET with both their custom insoles and custom sandals. From a touch of plantar faciitis and just old tired dogs from all the fitness things I do, Wiivv makes my feel feel so happy — you can check out my past post on the Custom Insoles and Sandals.  It’s really cool how these orthotic-like footwear items are made — you simply take pictures of your feet as prompted by the phone app, pick out the customizations you want — like color, prints, size, and then submit through your phone. They show up on your doorstep a week or so later.
