New Year, New You….. FORGET THE GYM, LET’S GET FIT WHILE TAKING CARE OF YOUR DRAINS

This tongue-in cheek fitness routine combines everyday plumbing maintenance with a workout guaranteed to work up a sweat and put a smile on your face. 

Ready to swap your lunges for plunges?

Warm-up: The SINK STRETCH

Before you get started, shake out those legs and roll those shoulders. Now Stretch those arms to reach your trusty rubber plunger…. You’re gonna need it!

Exercise 1: The Plunge

  • How to do it: Grab your plunger and give your sink a vigorous plunging workout. This strengthens your arms and clears minor blockages
  • Reps: 12 plunges per plughole.

Exercise 2: The Grease Toss

  • How to do it: Pour leftover grease and cooking oil into a disposable container instead of the sink. Lift and toss the container into the bin. This improves aim through hand eye coordination and prevents future fatbergs.
  • Reps: Once after every meal.

Exercise 3: The Shower Tray Squat

  • How to do it: Place a cover over your plughole. Bend your knees into a squat for extra effort. This keeps the debris out and tones the legs and thighs.
  • Reps: 6 squats rest and repeat.

Exercise 4: The Vinegar Sprint

  • How to do it: Grab a bottle of Vinegar in one hand and a box of Baking Soda in another. Pour them down the drain and a sprint to the finish to fetch hot water for the rinse.
  • Reps: Once a month for effective drain maintenance.

Cool-down: The Pipe Check Pose

End your workout with calming satisfying inspection of your pipes. Take a deep breath and exhale slowly and admire all your hard work.

And make a note to call Happy Drains for a professional check up if needed.
