BICEPS AND TRICEPS FOR 30TH BIRTHDAY IDEAS

30th Birthday Ideas For Boyfriend Who Needs A Little Help!

I have had some weight problems for a long time and have been going to a gym to try and lose some of those extra pounds I have been carrying around.  They have been coming off slowly and Adam, my boyfriend, noticed that too.  He told me how proud he was of me and mentioned that he wished he could do the same.  But Adam works long hours, often comes home late, and is too tired to trudge out to a gym to exercise.  A typical day for him after work is to have a meal at home, watch T.V., play with the dog, and turn in around 11:00 pm., exhausted.  He was always too tired and needed the rest before starting early every morning with his commute to work.  It was mostly on weekends that we had some real quality time together to enjoy each other’s company or to go out some place new.  It didn’t happen often anymore that we did something fun or went out with friends during the week.  He had mentioned more than once that he wished that he had more energy so that we could do more things together during the week.  That’s when it hit me.  He had a birthday coming up, so why not try to get him re-energized without him having to go to a gym.  Get him something that he can do at home without too much trouble or taking up too much of his time.

So, what ideas did I come up with for his 30^th birthday?

Since I had been going to a gym myself, I knew what kind of equipment would be on the market for home and personal use.  I wanted something for Adam that would help him with toning, strengthening and re-energizing his physical and mental state of health.  And what I came up with was a set of 2.5 lbs. individual ankle/wrist cuff weights with Velcro for easy use.  I also found an Ab roller wheel carver, which works his abs and allows him to gain upper body strength.  This small piece of equipment is especially good as it does not require a large area in which to work, and needs only to be used for short periods of time. These pieces are not boring and won’t torture you, plus they produce results very quickly.  So you can actually see some improvement before too long.  I figured that this is what Adam wanted.  But that was not all.  I also found some brightly colored Power Flex bands.  These you use for upper and lower body strength and to add definition to biceps and triceps.  With that I added 10 lbs chrome dumbbells that have cushioned grips with weights at the end that are removable.

Well, I can tell you that these gifts for Adam were a humongous hit with him, especially the Power Flex bands and the dumbbells. He now takes about 10 minutes, and sometimes less than that, about three times a week to use the weights at home.  In fact, I do the weight and band exercises together with him, which makes it twice the fun.  We both have noticed how much his energy has increased since he started working with them.  And what is even more awesome is that his biceps and triceps are beginning to show some definition.

A typical day after work for both of us now includes a quick 10-minute workout at home, a nice light dinner, then maybe even a short evening walk before plunking down on the sofa for a relaxing hour or so of TV time and playing with the dog.  And since Adam feels so much more energetic now, we even indulge in an occasional get together with colleagues for happy hour and dinner. He doesn’t look so exhausted when he comes home from work, and he actually looks forward to using his new equipment.  I can’t imagine why not – he looks good, feels good, and is good all around, if you know what I mean.

So, what is a good gift for a boyfriend on his 30^th birthday?  Well, here you have it.  A birthday gift that benefits him and you as well.  What more can one expect, eh!  Go for it!
