Forget about what exercise does to you (I mean it’s benefits), check out what it’s doing for the community.<\/p>\n

Al Saada Park at the Dubai Ladies Club is turning\u00a0kinetic energy generated by exercise into electricity to power devices. The park, which is a project by\u00a0Dubai Electricity and Water Authority and\u00a0Dubai Ladies Club, has three zones which\u00a0feature\u00a0physical, entertainment and educational elements.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The initiative is also a way of teaching the younger generation the importance of\u00a0preserving the environment and generating clean energy. And this is perhaps one of the most fun ways to do it.<\/p>\n

Eight exercise machines generate\u00a0a maximum of 800 watts per hour<\/h3>\n

This happens when eight people use the machines\u00a0at the same time. The electricity generated by these machines will be\u00a0stored to power the park’s lights, water coolers and even mobile chargers.<\/p>\n
