August 19, 2010No Comments

Did you know that a lot of things that we use on a daily basis are not eco-friendly or introduce harmful material to the environment? Maybe you knew that, but I can’t say that’s the case for everyone. Wouldn’t it be nice if we removed some of these material from our world? It won’t happen overnight, but you have got to start somewhere. One of the best places to start is with sporting goods. Sporting goods can be eco-friendly too. You just have to look for them.

If you are ready to go green with your sporting goods, these 5 products are worth a look:

Schwinn Midmoor Men’s Hybrid Bike: picking up a bike is one of the best ways to help the environment. You may not want to go to your work on a bike everyday, but I know plenty of people who do that on Fridays. Every little thing helps.

Natural Fitness Resistance Toning Kit: an eco-friendly fitness kit that is useful for doing some stretching and some light workout. The ball is made out of non-toxic materials too.

Gaiam Everything Fits Eco-Friendly Recycled Gym Bag: you can’t go to a gym without a gym bag. It’s eco-friendly and has a lot of space for your clothes and other goodies.

Manduka eKO 71-Inch 5mm Eco-Friendly Yoga Mat: if you are into Yoga, you are going to love this exercise mat. This is made from non-Amazon harvested, natural tree rubber.

Lifesaver Bottle 6000 Ultra Filtration Water Bottle: it uses replaceable filter and can handle up-to 6000 gallons of water. It comes extremely handy outdoors.

These do not cover every type of green sporting good out on the market, but they do give you a good place to start. What ec0-friendly sporting products are you currently using?
