Not familiar with Nordic walking?
It's basically walking with specially designed poles. It was created by cross country skiers as a way to cross train during the summer. Now it's catching on in the UK and I promise that once you try it, you'll never want to walk without poles. I'll admit it sounds unbelievable, but the benefits are huge. You burn more calories walking with poles than without because you're using up to 90% of your skeletal muscles. If you do it right, you can even get the same intensity as running but minus the impact. You also strengthen your upper body and core muscles and improve your posture. This all encompassing, outdoor workout is good for the mind body and soul. We Nordic walk in west London and Surrey in the various parks, woods and green spaces along the Thames riverside. We keep fit, have fun and meet new people.
