A Total Body Work Out
How can incorporating Nordic
walking poles into your fitness routine offer you all these health benefits? Many physiological studies have confirmed that cross country skiing is the most ef- fective physical exercise for cardiovas- cular improvement and strengthening of all body muscles. Nordic pole walk- ing burns up to 46% more calories than exercise walking without poles. It also helps to promote improved posture, im- proved muscle tone, which helps reduce the risk of osteopenia and osteoporosis. It has a reduced impact on your joints by improving distribution and produc- tion of synovial fluid. Participants real- ize reduced lower back pain, increased weight loss, increased mobility, and decreased body fat stores. Hikers dis- covered they could walk more power- fully with a pair of Nordic poles, which often reduced hip, knee, and foot pain, and backpackers found relief from pain- ful backs when using poles. Individuals with physical limitations have also found that walking with poles can aid balance and facilitate walking. NPW techniques are easy to learn
and use. The poles used for Nordic Pole Walking are shorter than those recom- mended for cross country skiing and are adjustable to maintain the proper height for your workout. Nordic walking poles are made of lightweight material and come with removable rubber booties for use on hard surfaces and hardened met- al tips for trails, the beach, snow and ice. German engineered for ergonomic com- fort and safety, the Nordixx poles used in Nordic Pole Walking are superior due to the specially designed wrist straps, which provide for the upper body work- out. You walk using your usual stride, so there are no new techniques to learn.

Weight Loss and Burning Body Fat
So often people focus on weight
loss when they should focus on fat loss. If you want to lose weight you have to burn body fat. To do that you have to exercise muscles for a long period with your heart beat frequency 120- 140 beats per minute. This is using 65-70% of your maximum heart beat frequency. With NPW you exercise 90% of your
muscles and automatically enter the fat burning zone. And you not only burn fat while walking but also up to 12 hours after your session. NPW changes the biochemical process in your body by realizing moderate muscle growth, im- provement in the mobilization of fat cells and metabolism. Dr. Schwanbeck’s book includes an in-depth chapter with the formula to calculate how many hours necessary in order to lose weight, or burn the fat. Nordic Walking increases your
heart rate, oxygen consumption and caloric expenditure without increas-
ing your perceived rate of exertion. You don't feel like you're working any harder but, in addition to working your legs, you're experiencing a full range of motion that engages the abs, arms, shoulders, upper chest and back mus- cles. Clinical reports indicate that this type of exercise may prove beneficial in a broad range of conditions, including arthritis, back pain, cardiac syndromes, chronic pain, fibromyalgia, obesity, osteoporosis, repetitive stress injury, thoracic outlet syndrome, depression, mood disorders, and more.
