How to Make Your Workout More Sustainable

How to Make Your Workout More Sustainable

Wellbeing isn’t just about moving our bodies. It’s also about the choices we make along the way. 

At The Remedy, we believe in building routines that support both our health and the planet. And that includes the way we work out. With a few small switches, you can make your workout more sustainable, kinder to your skin, and easier on the environment.

Choose Planet-Friendly Essentials

One of the biggest impacts we can make is through the products we use every day. Instead of throwaway, plastic-heavy options, swap in long-lasting, eco-conscious alternatives that are designed with both performance and sustainability in mind.

  • AKT Deodorant – A favourite in the store for its non-toxic, aluminium-free formula that actually works. Designed for performers, it’s built to handle sweat and movement, while still being gentle on skin. Right now, we’re offering an AKT Deodorant plus an Assistant key for £25 (RRP £34). A great time to give it a try! This offer is while stocks last and is valid until 2nd October 2025.
  • Olixa Gummy Cleanser – Perfect for a freshen-up after a run or class, this nourishing cleanser removes sweat and impurities without stripping the skin, leaving you glowing and comfortable.
  • AKT Body Wash – A rich, plant-based wash to rinse away the day while keeping skin balanced and hydrated.
  • EYEAM Magnesium Body Oil – A post-workout essential. Magnesium is known to support muscle recovery, improve sleep, and ease tension — the perfect ritual after stretching or showering. (Available in store only)

What Else Can You Do?

Hydrate Consciously - Instead of grabbing single-use plastic bottles, invest in a reusable aluminium or stainless steel bottle. Fill it with water, or make it more exciting by infusing fruit and herbs. Staying hydrated supports your energy levels and your skin, while cutting down unnecessary waste.

Take Your Workout Outdoors - There’s no better way to embrace sustainable movement than stepping outside. Running or walking along the beach (or in your local park) is not only free but helps you reconnect with nature and soak up a little vitamin D while the sunshine lasts. It’s simple, joyful, and good for your body and mind.

Rethink Recovery - A sustainable workout isn’t just about the activity itself — it’s about how you care for yourself afterwards. Prioritise rest, nourish your skin with products that are gentle and effective, and choose natural support like magnesium for muscle recovery. Small rituals create a big impact over time, and they help you stay consistent without burnout.

Movement with Intention

Sustainability is about awareness and small, intentional choices. Whether it’s swapping to refillable deodorant, washing with planet-friendly products, or carrying your own bottle, these habits add up to something much bigger than your individual workout. They’re steps towards a lifestyle that supports your health and the health of the planet.

At The Remedy, that’s what we’re here for - to help you make those swaps, discover new rituals, and find products that align with your values.
