Lindsay Vonn Nordic Walking
Nordic Walking is an excellent exercise mode owing to its overall impact and high-energy consumption and is thus well suited for exercise aiming at weight loss. It has also many other health effects.
The Finnish Helsinki Polytechnic’s Faculty of Health Care has studied the impact of regular participation in Nordic Walking. They studied women working mainly with PCs and their symptoms in the neck and shoulder area and the mobility of the cervical and pectoral spine.
The study showed that the symptoms in the neck and shoulder are disappeared among more than half of the participants and that the mobility of the cervical and pectoral spine improved significantly.
Give it a try. I give classes in Los Gatos (San Jose area).We meet in quaint Los Gatos – a town that goes back to the redwood lumber hauling days. there was a toll road that passed thru the town. Old Mountian Charlie built it Lots of stories we share onthe streamside trail.Even duck!
I’m an AMWA master instructor and my fees are low – I want to get Americans moving.
Among older persons the use of poles is a factor of safety as they may prevent falling at the time improving mobility.
