September 4, 2006 (Press Release) --
Nordic Walking US http://www.nordicwalkingus.com/ was started in Vienna, Virginia in October, 2004.
Our goal is to convince as many people as possible both in the US and abroad that Nordic walking is one of the best, most comprehensive all-in-one exercises in existence.
What is Nordic Walking and Why Should it Interest Me?
Quite simply, Nordic walking could be described as walking PLUS +
Unlike walking, or even running, Nordic walking provides you with a whole-body exercise - lower body, upper body, plus a great aerobic workout - comparable to cross-country skiing
Nordic walking is really taking off in Europe. Millions are participating in this great, whole-body exercise.
If you already walk, power walk, hike, or run, Nordic walking will enhance your fitness level. In addition, walking with poles is a lot more interesting and engrossing than plain walking.
It also saves wear and tear on your legs and knees, while providing balanced exercise for both your lower and upper body.
Haven't you ever wondered if it would be possible to also exercise your arms, back, abs, shoulders and chest, while walking? As it turns out - you CAN!
When you finish your walk, or run you don't have to hit the weight room. You don't have to get down and do ab crunches. You've got it all done in one nice package.
Find out during our free demo sessions and classes why cross-country skiers (and now Nordic walkers as well) are considered to be some of the best-conditioned athletes around, or simply get some poles and read the many instructional articles on this site and learn to Nordic walk on your own.
You could, I suppose get by by modifying a pair of ski poles, or making something from scratch, but well-designed Nordic walking poles are really a much better and a more elegant solution.
Walking, with the active aid of Nordic walking poles gives you a considerably better cardio workout than plain walking, while exercising some 90 percent of the body's muscles. And remember that the more muscle you have (within reason, of course), the more calories your body burns.
The markedly higher calorie consumption during Nordic walking, as compared to plain walking, or even power walking, provides one of the best weight loss strategies around. Most people can walk much farther and longer than they could ever run, burning more calories in the process, and as a bonus exercising both the lower and the upper parts of their bodies.
