Generally, when you mention about exercises, most of us picture a gym in mind with expensive and modern equipment that work on electricity. There is a majority of population in the world which cannot even think of exercising without modern equipment. Those who can’t take time out for a leisure walk, get a treadmill, that utilizes so much electricity. Such gross use of resources will one day put a lot of stress on environment. Why waste so much energy when you can exercise easily and effectively without electrical equipment? Such exercises are known as green exercise as they do not involve use of electricity and do not in any way add to the heavy load on the environment.
