SportsArt Fitness, a designer and manufacturer of fitness equipment with many “green” credentials, is going beyond self-generating elliptical trainers that require no electricity to operate. It is now offering its “Green System.” The Green System is a suite of specially-engineered exercise machines coupled with a power inverter which promise to harness the human energy that typically dissipates as wasted heat into the atmospheres of gyms around the country.

The gym at the Hotel Grand Pacific in British Columbia will be awarding an eager gym-goer with discounts on rooms in February. ECOFit also includes iPhone apps and claims to be fully integrated with social media — so gym goers can share their results on Facebook and Twitter as they sweat.

On Ed Begley, Jr.'s Show.. he peddled his stationary bike to make toast. A great incentive to use one of these gizmos , and for those who like to watch Soaps.. or better yet Survivor.. Peddle your way through the programs you watch, and soon clothing manufacturers will have to add-on material to areas like the thigh and calves..for the extra muscle development.. lol
