The Workout That Cleans the Earth

The Workout That Cleans the Earth

Plogging is the simple act of picking up litter while you jog. By adding squats and stretches to your run, you turn a standard cardio session into a full body workout that helps save the planet.

This movement began in Sweden in 2016 as a creative way to combine fitness with environmental action. Instead of just running, you incorporate deep bends and lunges every time you spot a piece of trash. It is now a global phenomenon with millions of people participating across 100 different countries. It proves that you can improve your health while simultaneously cleaning up your neighborhood one mile at a time.
