BY EVAN MONROE.

Jaxon Lane Deluxe Skincare Set

Taking pride in your complexion doesn’t challenge your man card, but if you’re a bit behind on where to start, this comprehensive grooming box makes it easy. The award-toting and dermatologist-approved medley includes everything the modern gent needs for smooth, soft, hydrated skin: nourishing sheet masks, eye gel strips, repairing moisturizer, powder enzyme cleanser, and a daily sunscreen. $120.

Monk Smart Ice Bath

Soaking your body in a cold plunge boosts energy, reduces inflammation, and sharpens focus, all in just a few invigorating minutes (although yes, five minutes in an ice bath feels far longer than your favorite Coldplay song). This smart tub from Monk makes the experience as seamless as possible, allowing plungers to fill and set the temperature of their ideal bath from afar. Its corresponding app offers tons of goodies, from guided audio tracks and soundscapes to breathwork routines. It’s self-cleaning and energy efficient, and since it doesn’t require a plumbing line, it easily slides into a home gym, wellness studio, or even your backyard. $8,495.

Centr Fitness Equipment

Launched in 2019 by Thor himself, Centr couldn’t boast a more impressive pedigree. But star power aside, the digital fitness service has enjoyed rave reviews from its 200,000+ subscribers, who all have access to one-on-one coaching with experts in movement, meals, and mind. Recently, Chris Hemsworth expanded his biz with the addition of equipment, including fitness kits and accessories like adjustable dumbbells and weight machines, plus full home gyms. $20+.

While post-gym soreness can feel like a badge of honor, aching muscles can steal the extra pep in your step and even lengthen the time between sweat sessions. Made with magnesium, tart cherry, and carbohydrates, this mighty blend from Gainful supercharges your body’s recovery period, reducing inflammation and promoting glycogen the primary fuel source for muscles during exercise – production. Consume directly after your workout and again before bedtime on rest days for maximum benefits. $22+.

Purported benefits include enhanced relaxation, stress reduction, and improved mood and brain function. $10,000.

Samsung Galaxy Ring

The tech giant’s wellness wearable is as handsome as it is helpful, packing a suite of tech forward smarts like an accelerometer, optical heart rate sensor, and skin temperature sensor that track sleep, exercise, and heart rate data. AI uses these metrics to calculate an “energy score” for the wearer, so you can easily keep tabs on your daily progress.
