Plogging is a feel-good exercise that individuals, co-workers, friend groups, and entire communities are doing right now. Essentially, people are getting outdoors in the fresh air and jogging while picking up trash along the way. They are doing their part in helping keep the planet—our home—clean, while getting a solid workout in and getting social.

Before you know it, you’ll be exercising your heart in more ways than one. Plogging will give your heart a great aerobic workout, while also showing all the love to your neighborhood with a bit of community sprucing. In fact, jogging is exercise for your entire cardiovascular structure, enhancing your heart health in the process. Tim Liu, CSCS, Precision Nutrition Certified Coach tells us, “Jogging on a weekly basis can improve your heart health and will build endurance and Type I muscle fibers in your legs.”

According to a study published in The Journal of Social Psychology, doing thoughtful tasks for others will fill your soul with so much happiness. As a matter of fact, there are plenty of studies out there that prove that acts of kindness result in pretty incredible things. Additional research even suggests that when you begin to show these acts of kindness, you’ll want to keep spreading kindness.
Before you start your plogging adventure, though, be sure you’re fully prepped. Liu notes, “Start off slow, building up your volume over time. Wear proper shoes to give you the support that you need, and avoid heel striking. Learn to run on the balls of your feet with a slight torso lean.”
