WALK TO CURE “BOOMERITIS”
As any baby boomer knows, staying as active as our minds desire, and remaining fit and uninjured are often contradictory pursuits! As those who have tried Nordic Walking CO’s program will attest, getting a surprisingly challenging workout while diminishing stress and pain on the joints is not only possible but guaranteed and fun as well!
Nordic Walking CO offers diverse programs, which includes Nordic walking classes, clinics and adventures. In addition, instruction is also available for proper fitness walking and race walking
techniques. It is the ideal combination of aerobic and resistance training for an incredibly effective whole body workout.
Nordic walking poles which are specially designed for the proper Nordic Walking technique allow the walker to burn as many as 40% more calories than in regular walking, while diminishing the impact on knees hips and ankles. The poles are equipped with changeable rubberized tips for varying surfaces and terrain and are used to work the upper body while stabilizing the lower body. An added bonus is that due to the fact that many muscles are sharing the effort and being worked, the overall perception of exertion is lessened. The result? Weight loss and a fit and happy body!
Come and see what it’s all about while meeting other walkers. You will be glad you did! |
