from last Father's Day? Here are a few more items to add to Dad's Father's Day Wish List!

Make Dad the envy of the gym and score him some new kicks you won't be embarrassed to be seen with him wearing!

New Balance Men's MX20 Minimus Training Shoe, Kinetic Blue

What about a new GPS Heart Rate Monitor to get and keep him in shape (although you still may lap him on your runs!)?

Or skip the GPS and go with a traditional Heart Rate Monitor.

Need help finding that perfect gift for the graduate in your life? We have complied a few of our favorites for you!

Are they the "fitness buff"? Try a heart rate monitor or a duffel bag for the gym!

If they don't like to cook but are still concerned about their health, get them the Quest Variety Box for an easy, healthy snack!

Quest Nutrition - Quest Bar Variety Box of 12

The Vitamix is perfect for making protein shakes, smoothies, and slicing and dicing. We even use ours for juicing! It would be the perfect addition to their kitchen!

Vitamix not in the budget? Try the Magic Bullet!

And, of course, a new graduate will need a slow cooker. They can throw their dinner in it and have it cook while they are working at their new job!
