Sustainability has long been a goal of environmentalists around the world. But after years of warnings about climate change, increased energy costs, and surging consumer activism, “going green” is now a major corporate initiative.

One of the biggest examples of a wastefulness energy buildings are fitness clubs. The usual treadmill takes up around 1500 watts — the equivalent of 15 glowing light bulbs! Stationary bikes use a mere 10% of their energy to run the machine and rest is dissipated as heat. At the point when individuals run, bicycle or elliptical to burn their own energy, they require inconceivable extra energy input to work the machines. So much energy going to waste!

This Blog is to discuss about having green gyms, gyms that uses zero energy where all the energy that needed in the building is being produced from renewable resources inside and connected into the same building.

The green gym is not the solution to the world energy crisis. It’s simply a much better way to exercise. You get the same workout on equipment you recognise, with the bonus of knowing your energy isn’t wasted – just the opposite. It’s being used to help power the building.

This is a small part of a much larger solution. Though you can’t power your house on a workout a day, the potential of human power is not in measuring how much electricity our bodies can make, but in finding ways to live more sustainable lives, and create a more sustainable culture.
