Nordic Walking involves walking on a flat or hilly terrain using a specific technique of movement with specially designed walking poles. It originated in Finland and was designed as a substitute for cross-country skiing.
This training technique reduces muscle tension in the neck and shoulder belt, increases flexibility of the spine and upper body muscles, strengthens the forearm, shoulder, abdominal, chest and back musculature, strengthens ankle and knee joints, reduces knee joint load in overweight people. At the same time, using special poles increases the safety of movement on sloping and uneven terrain as well as increases calorie consumption by approximately 20% compared to regular walking.
