    Nordic walking or what you should know about nordic walking before you start doing it

    ° What the nordic walking is

    The basic human movement is walking. Nordic walking is right practised walking. Nordic walking is solution for everybody without limits. It is dynamic walking with special poles.

    °  What you need for nordic walking

    For walking we need suitable shoes and clothes depending on terrain and weather we move.
    For nordic walking, in addition, we need the special poles. This is the basic equipement for the beginners. If you are interested in this activity and if you take it regularly, then of course you can choose from a wide range of companies specialized on nordic walking, like poles, special shoes, clothing and various accessories for different terrains and weather diversity. The are the same rules for nordic walking as for outdoor activities – there is no bad weather,  we just get dressed inaccurately.

    ° And what nordic walking will bring into your life

    • active movement and relaxation not only physical but also mental
    • return to a healthy life style
    • disease prevention (cardiovascular disease, joint disease, regulation of obesity, diabetes prevention – regulation of blood sugar values, positive effect on HDL cholesterol, reducing stress, help to stop the progress of osteoporosis, especially among women)
    • walking with poles improves physical fitness – aerobic capacity, mascular endurance, when walking uphill it increases muscle strength. It helps loosen the neck, shoulders and hips and in this way it eliminates pain in these areas, because 90 % of muscles are ivolved into the movement compared with normal walk
    • oxygenates and perfuses the brain, and moreover it has a positive effect on mental state
    • weigt loss – maintaining an adequate weight is a balancing between caloric intake and physical activity, practising nordic walking there is a higher energy output than in another sports (like volleyball, swimming), there is a higher caloric consumption than during classical walk (about 25-35% more). That is because of more muscles  involved into movement in nordic walking then in normal walking.
    • In anyway – you´ll feel better!
    • And why?

    Right walking and with right poles we straighten up –  breathe properly – muscle tension is released – pain in the joints is eliminated – we get the right step – we get futher with less effort and more pleasure – brain is oxygenated – good mood and well being will come.
