Hello super healthy weight lifting people. I am after your wisdom please. I’m one of those weird super early Xmas shoppers GrinMy son - grown up twenty something - has asked for gym supplements and gym gear for Xmas. Now he knows what he’s doing, has been doing weights and gym lifestyle for a while, doesn’t live at home, already has numerous gym things, supplements etc so I really don’t know what to buy. I tried looking around protein supplement sites and stores but am WAY out of my league. Not a clue.
Is there anything you’d recommend? Any brand? Any accessories?

Ask him to either be specific or give him money/vouchers to buy it himself. It really depend what his gym sessions are like, what his goals are etc.

I agree. The details matter about kit.

Thank you ladies. I stalked his Instagram closely Grin and got him a top from a company I saw he wears at the gym and some vouchers for his fav local supplements shop.
