It's good etiquette, when at the gym, to wipe down your machine after you use it.

After you've sweated and drooled and gawd knows what else all over the lat press/elliptical/adductor machine, it's only common courtesy to de-germ it before your fellow fitness buff steps on.

But after a cardio machine and a few weight machines, that adds up to a lot of paper towels. Add that to the paper towels in the locker room and the bathroom, and you're looking at waaaay too much paper use.A more eco-friendly alternative? Try bringing your own biodegradable wipes. Method makes a great flat plastic pack of All-Surface Wipes (easier to travel with) that you can keep in your gym locker.

The wipes are with 100% renewable and compostable bamboo fiber, and come in a "Go Naked" version that's free of added dyes, colors and scents. Grab one per workout, and you'll avoid using 20 paper towels each time you work out.
