Nordic Walking
Burn more Calories & Increase Muscle Strength While you Walk!
Nordic Walking is an effective, low impact activity that can burn up to 46% more calories with less time and effort. By using specially designed poles, individuals simulate a technique similar to cross-country skiing while walking. Incorporating poles while walking increases upper body strength, reduces impact on joints and delivers an amazing cardio workout. Nordic Walking increases your heart rate without increasing your perceived rate of exertion - simply put - you get a better workout without feeling like you are working any harder. Nordic Walking is an activity that you can do anywhere, anytime, of the year!
