Maybe your best friend is a new mom celebrating her first Mother’s Day and you want to help make the day special, or you’re just racking your brain trying to think of the right gift for your mother-in-law. What about the mom in your life who says, “I don’t need anything.” That’s not particularly helpful when it comes to gift ideas, either. Stressed out about the holiday? Don’t worry — we have your back.
When it comes to the #Momlife, there are few things that scream self-care better than gifts aimed at working out and relaxing. Moms have it rough sometimes — from juggling their lives as parents to working on their careers, to balancing it all on three hours of sleep, they need designated time to take care of themselves. So if you have an active mom in your life who lives for that hour-long Pilates class, escapes for 45 minutes at the gym, or loves to keep track of her fitness journey, we have everything you need to master Mother’s Day. Here are the best gifts for active moms.

This exercise ball is perfect for at-home workouts
As noted by the product’s description, the URBNFit exercise ball can be used for Pilates exercises, yoga, stretching, and more. Not only can it be used for workout purposes, but it also doubles as a pain relief tool (because we all have back pain now, right?). The great thing about this particular exercise ball is that it’s really easy to set up and quickly inflates. It comes with instructions, two air stoppers, and a workout guide as well, so it really does make the perfect gift.

These trekking poles are perfect for the hiker in your life
The TrailBuddy trekking poles are made of aluminum, so they can absorb pressure like a champ (and are more effective on difficult terrain than carbon fiber hiking poles). They’re super lightweight, only weighing less than most other aluminum hiking poles, so you won’t have to worry about adding any bulky weight to your mom’s hiking adventure. They’re easily adjustable, really comfortable on the hands, and are available in a multitude of colors — for every mom that’s a fan of hiking on the weekends, this is truly the perfect gift.
This running belt is perfect for moms on the go
What’s more is that the designers behind the E Tronic Edge running belt came up with a pouch that would fit plus-sized phones, so if the mom in your life has the biggest iPhone on the market, there’s no need to worry. To top off a great gift, the E Tronic Edge running belt is adjustable, so it can fit a 22-inch to a 46-inch waist.
