page 64 group fitness NORDIC WALKING (Ages 15 +) Nordic walking is defined as fitness walking with specially designed poles. Compared to regular walking, Nordic walking (also called pole walking) involves applying force to the poles with each stride. Nordic walkers use more of their entire body (with greater intensity) and receive fitness building stimulation not present in normal walking for the chest, lats, triceps, biceps, shoulder, abdominals, spinal and other core muscles that may result in significant increases in heart rate at a given pace. Nordic walking can produce up to a 46% increase in energy consumption compared to walking without poles. It also has been demonstrated to increase upper body muscle endurance by 38% in just twelve weeks.

You will burn fat and shed the extra pounds more efficiently. It truly fires up your metabolism to burn hundreds of calories. There is no difficult choreography to follow. Short work intervals are followed by active rest. You can work at your own level so you'll only be competing against yourself. You don't have to try to keep up with others. As you progress you will feel fit and strong. This will enable you to work at a higher level than before. This type of exercise uses the aerobic and anaerobic energy systems, which burns additional calories even hours after your last workout.
