Hi and Welcome to my group!!!
Imagine being able to walk for just 15 minutes yet get the benefits of an hour workout!!! That's what Balance Walking can do for you.
You might know Balance Walking as Pole or Nordic Pole walking. We use a set of specially designed walking poles along with shoes that engage more of your core or torso muscles. The technique is really simple and easy to learn.
Balance Walking evolved as a way for cross-country skiers to stay in shape year around. It has been proven to be 50% more beneficial than walking alone for burning calories and increasing cardio vascular exercise. It also uses 90% of the body's muscles by engaging the upper body.
Here are just a few of the many positive benefits you'll get with Balance Walking:
- Great way to begin an exercise routine.
- A convenient, effective, inexpensive way to stay in great shape.
- Is excellent for rehabilitating hips, knees, ankles and backs.
- Cross training exercise - awesome!
-Burn up to 50% more calories than regular walking.
-Improve Strength and Endurance
-Exercise your upper and lower body at the same time!
-30% less stress and force on feet, shins,knees,hips and backs
-Improve posture and learn proper body alignment
-Improve balance and stability
-Time efficient! Just 15 minutes a day will do ya!
Balance Walking will be the "next fitness wave" because it delivers what it promises.
Let's get out into the sunshine and experience the benefits of Balance Walking together.
All health and fitness levels are welcomed... I will give instruction, provide poles as loaners, and group everyone in to the appropriate health - fitness - or sports experience group.
