1. WODBOM
WODBOM is a monthly box delivery service that was created by a husband and wife team of CrossFit enthusiasts.
Their boxes contain a variety of different types of CrossFit gear, apparel, and snacks that aid CrossFitters with their training.
Why Subscribers Love Them
The main reason people love WODBOM is that they’re a specialized box service. All of their snacks, apparel, supplements, and equipment are catered specifically for CrossFitters and are top-of-the-line.
As CrossFit has grown, so too has WODBOM’s ability to partner with top fitness and nutrition companies. Due to these partnerships, they’re able to provide subscribers with a box that provides a tremendous amount of value.
Pricing
WODBOM’s pricing structure is almost identical to Runner Crate. The only difference is that WODBOM does not offer a year-long subscription, and instead sticks to month-to-month, 3-month, or 6-month subscription options. Just as with Runner Crate, the month-to-month subscription is $35/month, the 3-month subscription is $34/month ($102) and the 6-month plan is $33/month ($198).

2. Gainz Box
Gainz Box has quickly developed a strong reputation in the fitness clothes subscription arena.
Their boxes feature a mix of premium apparel, snacks, equipment, and gear catered towards strength training enthusiasts.
Why Subscribers Love Them
The main thing customers seem to love about Gainz Box is that they’re committed to being a premium service. They guarantee a value of $75 with each box, which is $10-$20 higher than the value provided by most other options on this list. Another major perk of Gainz Box is that they allow you to customize your box based on gender, top size, bottom size, and underwear size. This helps ensure everything you receive in your box will be useful.
Pricing
Gainz Box offers four different plans. Their month-to-month plan is $32/month but also comes with a $6 shipping charge. A 3-month commitment costs $31/month ($111 w/shipping) while the 6-month subscription is $30/month ($216 w/shipping).
If you’re looking to commit for a year, you’re looking at a price tag of $29/month ($420 w/shipping). While the high shipping price does make them a bit more expensive than similar options, they definitely provide more value, at $75 per box.

3. The Bodybuilding Box
The Bodybuilding Box is a fairly simple fitness box subscription service that sends subscribers workout apparel on a monthly basis.
Members can customize their box based on gender, size, and preference of a shirt or tank top. Then, each month, you’ll receive a tank or shirt that features a surprise logo on it.
Why Subscribers Love Them
The Bodybuilding Box hasn’t developed much traction as of yet. For those that do subscribe, however, the number one reason they seem to enjoy their box is that of the simplicity of the service.
The fact that their prices are so low compared to other subscription box services seems to be another major draw for subscribers.
Pricing
Their pricing model is very basic. You can do a month-to-month plan for $12/month, a 6-month plan for $10/month, or a 12-month plan for $9.50/month.

4. The MMA Pack
The MMA Pack subscription was created by mixed martial artist enthusiasts and include a mix of MMA shirts and gear.
Why Subscribers Love Them
Subscribers love the MMA Pack first and foremost because they’re one of the only options available for MMA enthusiasts. All of their shirts and gear are top-of-the-line and the variety of items, from hats and shirts to shorts and gloves, is also something that subscribers enjoy. They even promise a monthly value of $100+, although that’s hard to confirm. Subscribers also rave about the community and social media presence that the brand has on Instagram and Facebook. The sense of community that they’ve created is second to none within their niche.
Pricing
Their pricing structure is simple, as subscribers pay $39.99/month.
Unfortunately, they do not offer long-term commitment discounts, although they do provide coupon codes for 20% off your first box.

The Spandex Box fitness clothing subscription delivers a pair of leggings to the active, busy woman, every month.
Why Subscribers Love Them

Each pair is also designed for dual-use, meaning they can be used as both active-wear and fashion-wear.
Pricing
Their pricing model starts with a month-to-month price tag of $24.95/month. Their longer term subscriptions are relatively light on discounts, as a 3-month commitment is priced at $24.75/month and a 6-month is $24.49/month.

While their leggings are rather bland compared to Spandex Box, they do deliver very similar quality and at a price tag that is $8/month less than their competition.
Pricing
The Enjoy Leggings box starts at $16.95/month for a month-to-month subscription. If you’re looking to commit for 3-months, you’ll pay $49.95 overall.
