Some of the Benefits of Nordic Walking
Nordic Walking can be an effective cardiovascular activity as it works all major muscle groups in the body when proper technique is used. Up to 90% of your muscles are involved as compared to 70% when normal walking without poles. It can increase your heart rate an average of 10-15% more than normal walking. NW can decrease joint impact injuries and gives less stress to the knees, hips and feet. By using poles it gives the body beneficial weight distribution, resulting in less stress on the joints. Many ex-runners Nordic Walk at the same intensity level as a runner but with less impact on the joints. Using poles also gives added stability to those who may have balance problems. Many people participate in NW for weight loss as it burns more calories (up to 25-50% more) than walking without poles. This means you can burn up to 450 calories per hour compared to 280 calories per hour normal walking. Please print out and fill out forms and bring to the first class or mail ahead.
