About Nordic Walking
Nordic Walking was originally devised by super fit cross country skiers as a way to keep training during the summer when there was no snow. It soon became evident that this simple but effective activity could be used to improve the mobility and fitness of everyone from other sportsmen/athletes to those that prefer a slightly less active form of exercise

Not to be confused with 'trekking', Nordic Walking is an enhancement of ordinary walking where the use of poles helps to tone and strengthen the upper body as well as the legs whilst increasing the heart rate. Listed are just some of the benefits:-

• It burns up to 46% more calories than ordinary walking
• It reduces tension in the neck and shoulders
• It lessens the impact on the knees and joints
• It is fun, sociable and suitable for everyone

However, it is not simply a case of grabbing a pair of poles and swinging your arms about! Nordic walking requires the correct technique in order to utilise 90% of the skeletal muscles of the body and to increase the calories burned

The specially designed Exel poles are used in order to facilitate the action and to fully impact the whole body - they also allow people to work harder than they would normally without feeling it! Nordic Walking is the ideal way for people of all ages and fitness levels to simply get outdoors and get active!
