Many of you know that I teach Nordic Walking on Crystal Cruises. I get to go twice a year – I visit he Serenity and Symphony. Crystal is rated the BEST cruise line for the last 19 years. Two Fitness Directors teach the rest of the year.
We teach complimentary classes at 7:30 and 5:00 per day. Every day. That means I get little sleep and have to miss some tours. We go around the 1/3 mile deck. This is unual as most ships now only provide a short walking area above the pool. You have to turn every 20 steps!

Here is a video I took of a few happy campers on the Serenity. Listen to their fun. Many purchase poles for use back home. The orientation we give is enough to light their fire.
Remember, about 20% more calories are burned for the average person who does it correctly. The big carrot is the higher heart rate you will enjoy. Yes, it’s better than just walking!
Enjoy.
