Recycled Human Energy was developed as a means to use human energy expenditure to create goodwill and human welfare. The thinking behind this was sparked by the idea that it would be incredible if we could somehow capture all that effort we put into our workouts and use it for a good cause. One idea we've put into action is that we as a gym would track a clients energy output through caloric expenditure. Based on that calculation , for every calorie burned , we would donate 1 penny towards a charity (Food4Africa). For $1.70 a child can be fed for a month , as you can imagine the efforts put forth in workouts have profound effect on the lives of many. Good friend and business partner Joss Mckernan breaks down the energy flow as such :1.You give off heat energy as you train. We can measure that in calories.
2.That energy is converted into money and then into food energy for kids
3.The kids give off positive energy from living a better life
4.You are then given back the energy in the form of motivation to workout harder. Now you know that the harder you work the more kids you feed, and the better the fitness results for yourself.
Recycled Human Energy can happen through any physical effort used for a good cause. We are trying to create awareness that our physical well being that we work so hard to maintain should be used not only for our own benefits but to benefit others as well.
