Eco-friendly workouts have plenty of benefits, from reducing your carbon footprint and helping the environment to spending more time in nature and breathing in fresh air. Here are some great eco-friendly workouts you can do right now.

Hiking

Spring is the perfect time to cancel your gym membership and take your workouts outside. Hiking is the perfect full-body workout that can help you improve both your physical and mental health, and you’ll also get to spend more time in nature.

Try Plogging

For those of you who are still not familiar with this amazing eco-friendly activity, plogging is a combination of jogging and picking up trash. When you go out for a run, bring a trash bag with you to pick up trash along the way, and that way you can help the environment and your neighborhood as well.

Use Household Items For Workouts

There’s no need to buy expensive workout gear when you can use furniture and other everyday items in your home for workouts. Use a chair or a couch for doing triceps dips and grab a bottle of water instead of buying weights.
