Nordic Walking

Nordic walking is a full-body workout that involves walking with specially designed poles, similar to ski poles. Originating in Finland, it enhances the walking experience by engaging the upper body, improving posture, and increasing calorie burn compared to regular walking. The poles help to distribute weight and provide stability, making it suitable for various fitness levels. This low-impact exercise can be done on trails or urban paths, promoting cardiovascular health, strength, and endurance while being easy on the joints. It’s a popular recreational activity and also used in rehabilitation and fitness programs worldwide.
