Tips for a sporty and environmentally friendly workout!

For former athlete Christina Vukicevic Demidov, plowing means a lot. She has always been environmentally conscious, but the very plowing she got over when one day she went behind someone who unknowingly threw rubbish on the ground.

-Instinctively, I started picking up the garbage can, and I then began to notice how much garbage there was actually around me! I wanted to do something about this, and then found out that plowing was something for me. Now it means a lot to me to be able to help nature to remove all the rubbish throws away, as well as show others that plowing is both good for helping the environment, as well as for getting out into the fresh air and being active with, for example, their family. !

Former athlete Christina Vukicevic Demidov is an avid plogger, and encourages everyone to take a plow trip, both for physical activity but also to take care of our environment!

Tips for a plow session

Plowing is a great activity for the whole family, so if you have children or friends who have children, take them on a plowing trip! Good habits start at a young age. Children find it great fun to be a part of influencing in a positive way! So tie sneakers, bring a bottle of water and go out and plow!

Here is a tip for a session you can take with the family if you plow for an hour:

Every five or ten minutes, do the following exercises that you share with everyone involved in the plug-in:

10 squats

10 push ups

10 spenshopp

10 toe lifts 

The group should have completed all the exercises, but you decide how much each person in the group should take!
