Here are a few basic tips to greenify your workouts (yes I know ‘greenify is not a word, but I just made it one).. Now you may do a few of these things already, if not, consider it. We are all inextricably linked so when you help the earth you help yourself directly or indirectly.

1. Buy a water bottle (aim for bpa free if plastic )… Why??

• First, this can greatly cut down on space or amount of water bottles you need to carry throughout the day.
• its stylish and cool 🙂
• you have the option to purchase insulated bottles that can keep your  drink cool
• Easier way to keep track of the ounces you’re consuming
• cuts down on the waste and harm done to the environment
• you can use this bottle outside of workouts for normal day to day use

2. Bring your own (sweat) towel to the gym

• it’s eco-savvy
• If you’re a germaphobe like me, you don’t use everyones products etc… truth is, instead of taking a risk with the towels given at the gym, use your own and you’ll have no questions
• Gyms/facilities may also have paper towels to use instead of regular towels… If you are as intense as I am, those little paper towels don’t do much and are wasteful
• towels are meant to absorb water so if your gym only offers paper towels this can be quite damaging to you your skin

Happy Fitness!!!
