Download or read book Nordic Walking written by Claire Walter and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2009-06-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nordic Walking The Complete Guide to Health, Fitness, and Fun A primer to one of Europe’s hottest fitness activities, this is the first major book about this easy, fun, and effective new sport Nordic Walking, a type of fitness walking with poles, was developed in Finland in 1997 and spread across much of Europe. Today more than 6 million people worldwide engage in Nordic Walking regularly, and participation is growing fastest in the United States. The 87.5 million Americans who already walk for fitness have been coming to Nordic Walking in droves. The motion is similar to cross-country skiing or snowshoeing but without skis, snowshoes, or snow–and akin to the Nordic-Track, Crosswalk Treadmill, and other apparatus but done outdoors in the fresh air and scenery. Easy to learn and easy on the budget, Nordic Walking can be done anywhere and has many advantages over regular walking, including: • The specially designed, lightweight poles relieve some of the stress on the ankles, knees and hips and transfer it to the upper torso, making it a full-body workout. • Nordic Walking burns up to 45 percent more calories than walking without poles. It is equally effective for new exercisers just off the couch, dedicated walkers, long-time runners who are now trying to favor their knees, anyone rehabilitating from an injury, and even too-sedentary seniors. Nordic Walking is a recreational and fitness activity for the 21st century–and Nordic Walking the first complete guide to how to get started with this fun and healthy new sport.

Since more people than ever before are spending an increasing amount of time outdoors, professional walk-leaders and individuals are also choosing to enhance the experience by incorporating a Fitness on the Move(TM) approach.This means that more Nordic Walkers and Trekkers than ever before are performing powerful and proven isometric exercise routines to exercise their whole body with gym-quality workout sessions during scheduled walk breaks in almost any location they choose.These improvised workout sessions primarily use walking poles as what we call IIED's - Improvised Isometric Exercise Devices.

Also, walk-leaders and fitness professionals can use this book as a handy resource guide to devise new, fun-filled and effective exercise sessions during group walking breaks.NOTE: This is one of two companion books that together form a set. One book focusses on exercises that can be performed by individuals, and the other book focusses on exercises that can be performed in partner-pairs. Since the background exercise science remains the same regardless of whether one trains as an individual or in a partner-pair, the introductions and relevant exercise science sections to both books are essentially the same. The important difference between the two companion books is the exercise resource section, with each book specifically focussing only on one aspect or the other.
