Nordic Walking For ALL Ages and ALL Fitness Levels

Nordic Walking has been proven to help improve aerobic capacity, increase oxygen uptake and maximize calorie burn compared to regular walking.  Nordic Walking Poles also help to eliminate many joint pains and they help to improve upper body mobility as well.

Cross country ski racers have been hill bounding and ski walking for decades as a means to get a jump-start on ski season when deprived of snow. Nordic Walking Poles can help you get a jump-start on ski season as well.

Real Nordic Walking Poles are equipped with removable rubber Nordic Walking Tips/Asphalt Paws – ideal for pavement and other hard surfaces. Nordic Walking can be done on any surface – including indoor/outdoor tracks and even in the mall. Remove the rubber tips and the metal tips provide traction on trails, the beach, snow and ice.

The best Nordic Walking Poles are equipped with special Nordic Walking Straps – kind of like a fingerless glove. SWIX and EXEL Nordic Walking Poles utilize comfortable straps patented by the Salomon Ski Company. The best cross country ski racing poles are also equipped with these proven and tested straps patented by the Salomon Ski Company.

The American Nordic Walking System provides three basic levels of exertion – providing at least one comfortable level of intensity and effectiveness for any age and any fitness level. 

Level 1 – burns up to 20% more calories than regular walking

Level 2 – burns up to 30% more calories than regular walking

Level 3 – burns up to 40% more calories than regular walking

Go to: The American Nordic Walking System for additional info and instructions

REAL Nordic Walking Poles differ from typical hiking and trekking poles in that they can accommodate the rubber tips/paws. Nordic Walking Poles are typically lighter – especially the one-piece poles that prove to be safer, lighter and much more durable than cheap twist-lock and flip-lock poles that often rattle, vibrate, collapse/fail and or freeze up. One-piece poles that are sized correctly prove to be user-friendly and hassle-free.

The Nordic Track is also a great way to get ready for both downhill and cross country skiing. Downhill skiers will benefit from cross country skiing as a means to get ready to hit the slopes too. Snowshoeing with poles (Nordic Snowshoeing) is also another great way to get ready for ski season. No snow? No problem – try Nordic Walking. No snow, no skis required.

We just received a call from a happy customer ordering her 3rd and 4th pair of one-piece Nordic Walking Poles from us – quality one-piece SWIX and EXEL Nordic Walking Poles. They had two pairs of expensive twist-lock poles from REI and she referred to them as “garbage” due to the noise (rattle) from the twist-locks and the hassle of the poles locking mechanism. We hear this type of feed back every day about 2 and 3 piece telescopic/collapsible poles – twist-lock and flip-lock. Skiers only use one-piece poles and they prove to be ideal for Nordic Walking when sized correctly by a professional.

I just got off the phone with a lady that just returned some expensive poles from Dick’s Sporting Goods because her husband, who has MS, couldn’t get the poles to stop collapsing. She ordered one-piece poles from us costing half the price. Our one-piece poles will prove to be far superior and stronger. Individuals with balance issues should avoid twist-lock and flip-lock poles.

Brother Culture has recently released a single with Reggae Roast the first for the newly established record label, check their press release below…

“We are proud to present ‘Willing & Able’ the first of a number of releases on the newly formed Reggae Roast Record label. ‘Willing & Able’ is the debut single from producer Exel and features the vocal talents of Brother Culture and Ghetto Priest, two of the UK Roots scene’s most captivating artists.

‘Willing & Able’ is a prime example of the versatility, and distinctly vibrant style that Reggae Roast has become synonymous with; a consistently positive and conscious message combined with earth shattering bass-lines and booty shaking beats. The track encompasses the full force of the UK Dubstep sound, while staying true to the foundations of Roots Reggae.”

i decided to weight myself yesterday. i was alone in the room with the scale and i just felt like i had to know. and what do you know? i was 106 pounds.

i suppose i wished it were less… 100. 90s. something like that, but i wasn’t upset. i wasn’t happy, though… just neutral. i guess that’s ok.

AAAND i measured it midway through the day after eating and chugging 32 oz of water (i was/ am sick… with swine flu ) and i was bloated because of my big p…. ok, now i’m just making excuses, but i’m guessing that my true weight is more like 105.

but whatever. the point is that either way my exel document that tracks my calories and calculates my suspected weight loss is actually right on which is pretty cool. it means i’ve been pretty darn accurate in guessing calories. (yay)

erm… yeah.

if i can just lose 7 more pounds i’ll be happy. 98. it’s a nice number

CORSO + ESCURSIONE AI LAGHETTI DI ACCUMOLI

Che cosa è il Nordic Walking
Il Nordic Walking consiste nel camminare con dei bastoni appositamente sviluppati per questo sport. Offre un modo facile, naturale e molto efficace per migliorare la propria condizione fisica e per tonificare la muscolatura del corpo indipendentemente dall’età, dal sesso o dalla preparazione fisica. In più, è divertente e rilassante. Nel Nordic Walking si utilizza circa 90% della muscolatura del corpo, senza sollecitare in modo eccessivo le articolazioni, con tutti i benefici che un allenamento così completo comporta.

Benefici
Il Nordic Walking è un’attività sportiva completa, che allena contemporaneamente sia il sistema cardiocircolatorio che la quasi totalità della muscolatura del corpo (circa il 90%). Oltre 30 ricerche scientifiche internazionali dimostrano i benefici effetti sulla salute derivanti dalla pratica di questo sport.

REAL Nordic Walking Poles From WWW.SKIWALKING.COM and the American Nordic Walking System

Nordic Walking definitely helped to get event participants out walking – including those that utilize canes and walkers. The most enthusiastic group tested the poles for about one-mile. Many climbed the steep hill above the parking lot and everyone was shocked at how the poles made climbing hills easier. When Nordic Walking poles are sized correctly and the right technique is used, the biomechanics are such that balance, stability, posture and gait are radically improved. The perfect length poles also help to radically reduce the stress to the shins, knees, hips and back.

Nordic Walking’s winning combination of improved posture, a unique 4-Wheel-Drive type action and shock absorbing benefits – helping many individuals to walk comfortably again. Nordic Walking Poles are helping individuals with balance issues, knee issues or new knees, hip issues or new hips, back issues (including those with rods in their back), weight issues, multiple sclerosis (MS), parkinson’s (PD), neuropathy, arthritis, bursitis, scoliosis, lumbar stenosis, fibromyalgia, post polio, osteoporosis, stroke recovery, cancer recovery and other limitations to walking. Nordic Walking poles are helping thousands of Americans get off the couch, successfully get outside, start walking safely and effectively launch much needed walking campaigns.

Here is what Mike told us after taking his new poles out for his first solo test drive: “Friday evening I walked nearly 2 miles with them WITHOUT PAIN! I was so, so pleased – just tickled me to death. Can’t say enough positive about them. Now I’m trying to find my pedometer, as I have made a covenant with myself regarding 10 miles per week. I am so looking forward to achieving it!”

Some of the participants commented that they had twist-locking poles at home and most reported problems with their twist-locking poles. They also commented on the comfort and effectiveness of the straps included with all of our SWIX and EXEL Nordic Walking Poles – patented by the Salomon Ski Company.

It is a hassle for me to travel with so many different sizes of quality one-piece poles, but they are safer, lighter and much more durable than cheap twist-lock and flip-lock poles from China. I have been receiving a record number of calls from Nordic Walking Instructors that report problems with their twist-lock poles and the embarrassment of trying to teach a class when their twist-locks don’t cooperate.

At SKIWALKING.COM and The American Nordic Walking System we carry 14 standard lengths of Nordic Walking Poles, plus we can do custom fitting for extra tall individuals – 6’ 7″ and above. One-piece poles prove to be safer, lighter and much more durable than cheap twist-lock or flip-lock adjustable length/telescoping/collapsible poles.

When looking for quality Nordic Walking Poles be sure to zero in on the correct length, look for poles with Salomon patented Nordic Walking Straps and avoid cheap twist-lock/flip-lock poles.

Walking with poles is the best!

The origins of Nordic Walking may be traced to Finland, where, in the early 1930s [1], cross-country skiers began using poles to positive effect during their summer training. In the 1980s, clinical studies correlated the use of trekking poles with fitness levels. Subsequent studies in the 1990s demonstrated that this simple, efficient exercise increased cardiovascular activity, significantly enhanced muscular and aerobic fitness, and improved overall vitality.

Nordic Walking was developed by Finnish sports equipment manufacturer, Exel Oyj, in close cooperation with sports medicine researchers and other fitness professionals [2] [3]. As a defined fitness exercise with specific training equipment, it was officially launched in 1997. Today, some 760,000 Finns regularly participate in this activity [4], and the trend has since spread throughout Scandinavia and Europe, where it is estimated that about 3.5 million people now do it regularly, urged on by some 3,000 trained instructors [5].

As educational programs sponsored by industry leaders promote the benefits achievable through correct use of the technique, interest is growing in other countries around the world, including the Australia and Japan [6]. In North America, EXEL, LEKI, ANWA, and others provide organized programs, demonstration clinics and training aids for the growing number of individuals expressing interest in or already practicing the technique, on their own or in a local group.

…The reasons for the sport’s popularity are many, according to Theo Walther, who runs the Theo Walther Nordic Walking School in Bonn. A trained Nordic Walking instructor since 2002, Walther said a growing interest in preventive medicine in Germany has raised interest in Nordic Walking.

“I think more than 50 percent of Germans have computer jobs. They don’t move enough and have health problems as a result,” Walther said. “Nordic Walking can be tailored to people at all ages and stages of fitness or ability… It can be done like a competitive sport, but we also do it with handicapped people and in old age homes.” [7]

Nordic Walking can be adapted to individual fitness levels. It isn’t just for the fitness enthusiast who wants a high-intensity, total body aerobic workout. Virtually everyone who can walk, and many who have difficulty walking, can go Nordic Walking.
