Jake Short (Fletcher Quimby, A.N.T. Farm)
What's your favorite way to exercise—but still have fun?
I play soccer and basketball, and I love to snowboard and skateboard. I also enjoy trampoline, acrobatics, and martial arts. They're not only fun but also a great way to exercise.
What's your favorite recycling tip?
Where I live in California (as well as many other states), you pay a little extra when you buy aluminum and plastic, but you can get that "deposit" back by returning the items to a recycling center after you use them. So you can help the environment and earn a little spending money.

Amanda Beard (Seven-time Olympic medalist for swimming)
What's your favorite way to exercise—but still have fun?
Exercising with friends makes things so much more fun. I also like to get outside and do adventurous things that still count as exercise. My favorites are hiking and mountain biking!
What's your favorite recycling tip?
I make recycling as easy as possible so it's just a part of my routine. For instance, I put my recycling bin right by my trash can so I don't even have to think about it. That makes recycling effortless.

Nolan Gould (Luke Dunphy, Modern Family)
What's your favorite way to exercise—but still have fun?
I love to do outside activities like parkour [includes running, jumping, vaulting, and other moves to overcome physical obstacles], surfing, and rock climbing. Parkour can be done just about anywhere, but make sure you get some training first so you won't get hurt.
What's your favorite recycling tip?
Take your lunch to school in reusable containers instead of plastic and paper bags. You can wash it at the end of the day and you won't be creating trash.
