ODESSA, FLA.—Green Lodging News has added SportsArt to the Fitness Equipment section of its Green Product & Service Directory. As the green fitness company, SportsArt believes movement is energy and that our human energy can make the planet more sustainable—one workout at a time. SportsArt’s mission is to create superior fitness equipment that helps people find their best selves while being as environmentally friendly as possible.

SportsArt, a green fitness brand that develops sustainable gym equipment, introduced an addition to its energy producing ECO-POWR line, the ECO-POWR Elite Series. This new compact gym equipment has the same build quality and ECO-POWR technology as the original Status Line, while designed to accommodate smaller fitness spaces like those seen in boutique gyms, hotels, and multi-family housing.

As a concept, sustainability focuses on meeting the needs of the present without compromising the needs of future generations. The concept of sustainability is composed of three pillars: economic, environmental, and social (also referred to as the three P's: profits, planet, and people).

Andrew Karr’s 9-month-old son, Arthur, is learning to walk and talk. Andrew is now relearning those same skills after being diagnosed with Guillain-Barre syndrome in December. What started as a persistent cough led to pneumonia, causing his body to attack his nervous system. The new dad spent three weeks at Methodist Hospital in Omaha, very weak and struggling with coordination.
