Looking for last minute Father’s Day gifts? Here are a few ideas, for any budget, that will help keep your dad healthy throughout the year:
• Take your dad on a hike. The Sierra Club offers easy to advanced level hikes and walks all around the Bay Area (free). Hiking and walking are not only healthy and stress-relieving activities, but spending a few hours together with your dad might just be the perfect gift for both of you.
• Get music for his swim. For dads who would like to listen to music while in the pool, you can get a waterproof iPod shuffle ($250) or a waterproof headphone system ($79.99).
Personalize your dad's workout by transfering some of your music onto his iPod.
• Send him a healthy gift basket. These gift baskets ($35-$85) are filled with organic goodies and include options for diabetic dads, for dads who keep a gluten-free diet and for those who need to keep low cholesterol and blood pressure levels.
• Buy him a book. To learn about a variety of topics including diet, exercise, and illnesses in men, check out ‘The Complete Book of Men’s Health’ and ‘The Harvard Medical School Guide to Men's Health: Lessons from the Harvard Men's Health Studies’ ($10-$24).
For books that focus on proper workout techniques and keeping a healthy diet, look at ‘The New Rules of Lifting: Six Basic Moves for Maximum Muscle’ and ‘The Abs Diet’ (~$10).
