This gear can help relieve stress and tension, get you in shape, and make workouts more enjoyable. A bit more about the images above (clockwise, from top left):

 

Kettlebells

What: Improve strength, core power, balance, flexibility, coordination, heart health, and even posture and grip with these USA-made cast iron kettlebells. When you can’t go to the gym, these weights provide an all-in-one, fat-burning, muscle-building workout.

 

Cost: $69 to $129 at USA-iron.com. Active duty military and veterans get 5% off.

 

Injinji Socks

What: A favorite of runners, Injinji socks help toes align and splay naturally, providing better stability and comfort. They also reduce blisters and hot spots by preventing friction between your toes, and the sweat-wicking material keeps your feet drier than regular socks.

 

Cost: Starting at $11 at Injinji.com.

 

Jade Starter Kit

What: Yoga helps relieve stress and anxiety, both in abundant supply this year. This yoga starter kit comes with a rubber mat, a yoga block and a yoga strap, plus 20 days of free online yoga classes from Yoga International. Mats are eco-friendly, and Jade plants a tree for every one sold.

 

Cost: $64.95 at jadeyoga.com.

 

Theragun Mini

What: Used by professional athletes, gym enthusiasts, and those in between, the compact Theragun Mini uses percussive massage therapy to relieve soreness and pain. It has 150 minutes of battery life and three speed settings, and it can go anywhere you go.

 

Cost: $199 at Theragun.com. Active duty, National Guard, Reservists, retirees, and military dependents receive 20% off any regularly priced Theragun device.
