Another Idea which resulted from the creative workshop. The FitnessWash concept tries to combine the two daily routines of “doing one’s laundry” and “taking exercise”. A stationary bike is being connected to the mechanism of washing machine. Direct conversion of muscularity provides an immediate experience of power to the exerciser which may thereby better comprehend the effort and energy needed for the washing programme. Different gears provide forward, reverse or spin cycle. It may be fun to alternate between the gears or to perform a “spinning” in a team. Harvesting rainwater and heating it up with a solar thermal facility guarantees a green washing procedure front to end. The used water may also be utilised to flush a nearby toilet. Whether such stationary washing bikes find their use in private surrounding or set up as non-profit fitness and washing studio, the concept can be extended it different direction.
