Eco-Fitness = Everyday Choices

Happy Earth Day! (April 22 is Earth Day)
Even our fitness choices can help the earth. Walking and biking for regular transportation is a good place to start. But let's add some other ideas:
  • When you buy workout clothing, consider buying clothing made from natural, organic fabrics.

    Read reviews of lines that carry natural and organic clothing: be present and Lucy.
    Also see Blue Canoe and No Enemy in the clothing gallery.

  • Exercise mats are now available in recycled materials and low environmental impact and less toxic materials than those made with PVCs.

    sources include: Drishti, Hugger Mugger, and Gaiam

  • Please! No more throw away plastic water bottles!

Ultimately, our fitness and Earth's fitness are the same thing.
