Designer drinking

Credit: Camelbak.com

Because plastic water bottles free of the potentially dangerous chemical bisphenol A (BPA) just became available in 2008, we're betting that you may not have one yet. Fill that gap with a limited edition Better Bottle from Camelbak ($13), available in cute, festive designs like Midnight Stars and Red Argyle (shown here). They’re dishwasher safe, have an easy-to-carry handle, and sport the trademark Big Bite Valve, which means you don’t need to tilt it to take a drink.

For the disorganized yogi

We all have that one scatterbrained friend who loses her keys, her phone, and her wallet at least three times a week. If this sounds like you, you're in luck. The Yogoco yoga bag ($89) has zip-up compartments not only for a mat, but also for everything else you could possibly take to a class, to the gym, or with you for the rest of the afternoon. This way, you can concentrate on getting your Zen on, instead of where you put your towel.

Work-day workout

Credit: Gaiam.com

For the person who’s stuck behind a desk all week but really wants to move: The Gaiam BalanceBall Chair with pump ($99) provides the benefits of sitting on a stability ball—improved posture, activation of core and abdominal muscles, and encouragement to wiggle around and burn calories—but with ergonomic back support, and without you needing to worry that it will roll away if left unattended. The BalanceBall is removable, so you can add fitness-ball basics to your daily routine, and it comes with a desktop guide to get you moving.

For the gadget lover

Preorder the hottest new fitness gadget of the year for delivery in early 2009: The tiny Fitbit ($99) clips onto clothes or slips into a pocket, and monitors movement in three directions, serving as a calorie-counter, a pedometer, and even a sleep tracker at night. It wirelessly uploads data to the company’s website where the user can track his or her progress toward a personal goal.

Better backpacking

Hikers, campers, and anyone who likes to travel light will love this Evernew collapsible water bottle ($11) that can keep them hydrated but won’t weigh them down. When empty, the 2,000-milliliter bottle rolls up and ties neatly to be stored while packed away. Drinking water isn't only important during a workout session: Sip it all day and you'll boost your energy no matter what's on your schedule.

Winter warmth

Featuring patented Tec Touch technology designed for use with music players, cell phones, and PDAs, 180s Puffy Quilt gloves ($40) have built-in pressure pods on the thumbs and forefingers that allow the user to operate mini–electronics without having to get their hands cold. The quilted nylon exterior is warm, breathable, and wind-resistant, while a microfleece layer traps heat and wicks sweat away from the skin. A soft, supple leather palm maximizes durability and grip, even in the snow or rain.

Better buds

Credit: Amazon.com

If you know someone who’s struggled to exercise with her iPod or iPhone only to lose an earbud with each bounce, Innovelis BudFits ($9) are a great solution. Just pop these onto the factory-issued phones and they’ll flex to fit around your ears and hold the buds in tightly. Instead of carrying a whole second pair or having to wear wraparounds (which can get uncomfortable when worn for long periods), the BudFits gives you extra security only when you need it.
