Weighting Game


Small Changes Add Up
If 10,000 Chicago Biters buy an eco-mat instead of a PVC one, we'll avert the weight of 167 yoginis in nonrecyclable plastic.

Cocktail Tidbit
After incorporating yoga into inmates' routines at Walpole Prison, MA, recidivism ($100 word that means "relapse") decreased by 40%.

Wanna lose the muffin top already, but sick of waiting for Chicago's first green gym? In the meantime, lean on these: Natural Fitness's sustainable and eco-friendly bamboo blocks, fitness equipment, and yoga products. We're set to downward dog on the all-natural rubber, PVC-free mats (sustainable and nontoxic) in outdoors-inspired colors such as sky blue and ivy green. And if yoga's not your thing, the South Side-based company's eco gym line includes dual-grip medicine balls, resistance tubes, and burst-resistant exercise balls for core training. So you can still start getting fit...without weighting.

Wanna Try?
Bloom Yoga Studio, 4663 N. Rockwell St. b/t Leland and Eastwood Aves (773-463-YOGA). Journey yoga mat, $40; bamboo yoga block, $16.
Chicago Home Fitness, 2000 N. Clybourn Ave. b/t Racine and Magnolia Aves. (773-770-0162). Medicine ball, $35; professional resistance tube, $13.
