    Santa! I would like a treadmill, a pair of adjustable dumbbells, and a TRX.

    My only goal for 2016 is to be working out just as consistently at the end of the year as I will be at the beginning.

    A home gym outfitted with enough plates to accommodate my 5X5s and hubby's lifts.

    An unassisted bodyweight pull-up!

    And...hmmm, how about enough time in the week to reincorporate a couple yoga classes.

    This is Santa, so I can ask anything, right? A big indoors heating pool would be lovely. See, I am not greedy, just one gift :) Oh, and I would need a much bigger house to fit the pool in, but this is not really a second gift, it is only so I can have the pool...
    But, I suspect that Santa will not really bring this, same as he will refuse to bring my kids the approximately 1000 euros worth legos and real light sabers they would like to get each.

    So, to limit my wishes to something more likely to come true, a fitness ball would be nice. A TRX would be even nicer, but I suspect it is definitely over Santa's budget for this year.

    As for goals, being able to get back to running this spring would be nice, after taking one year off. Or finally being able to do a handstand (more of a mental block there at the moment).

    2. Do 1 arm push-ups/handstand push-ups

    A lifetime supply of my protein powder
    A Manta shoulder holster for when I do heavy back squats
    A paid subscription to all ITunes radio channels so I can get psyched for my lifts

    Personal Goals:
    Dropping down to 10% BF by the end of March
    Gaining an additional 1-2 lbs of muscle, preferably in my shoulders and quads
    Finally getting a 6 pack instead of a four pack

    A cybex arc, my own personal heated pool and weight room! Not asking for much! Would need a larger house for all that to fit! Or just plastic surgery to remove all this excess skin!!!
    Goals for 2016: lose this last 50 lbs and get to about 15% bf.

    I want some lululemon leggings from Santa bc apparently they are the best in the whole wide world but I'm not paying $90 for one pair of workout pants. I also would like a set of bands. And idk, my gym membership paid for a year would be nice.

    Some fitness goals:
    I really want to increase strength, I really want to be able to do a pull up, or a chin up. I would love to bring my squat and deadlift to the next level.

    1. Fractional plates so I can try and improve my bench press without being so hung up on it being a big increase to the next weight up.
    2. 12KG kettlebells
    3. A regular appointment with a sports masseuse as my shoulders are so tense!
    4. To be able to do an unassisted pull-up.

    Pleeeeeeease!!!!
