There’s more to being active than going to that yoga class every week or meeting new goals on the treadmill. Here at The New Health Cycle, we’re going to take your health workout to the next level along with your athleisure wear and make you think about the health of the environment while you’re working up a sweat.
We all know You need the right clothes that move with you and breathe as your body releases all that sweaty good workout heat.
Not only do you need those qualities in your athleisure workout clothes, but they also need to be eco-friendly as workout clothes get worn down and thrown away the most out of any part of a woman’s wardrobe.
Women’s workout clothes are commonly made of synthetic fibers making their way into our oceans as microplastics being consumed by marine life thus being consumed by humans as we eat the fish consuming the microplastics from our pollution and round and round the microplastics go.
It’s a scary unhealthy cycle for everyone and the environment. Here at The New Health Cycle, we seek to break that unhealthy cycle and start a new cycle bringing awareness to all and recommending healthy eco-friendly alternatives in everything we do in our lives. This includes our workout routines.

These eco-friendly athleisure wear workout clothes are the most eco-friendly out there but unfortunately, not 100% eco-friendly. This is an improvement from 0%. Workout clothes require that added stretch that can only be found by adding a small number of synthetic fibers but fortunately, the majority of the fibers made for these sporty outfits is from natural organic fibers including bamboo, cotton, or other natural fibers that will degrade completely.
