Pole Walking
The purpose of this exercise is to use two poles, often called hiking or trekking poles, to add a new dimension to walking as an exercise.
Pole Walking is an easy, efficient and low stress activity that engages the whole body in a workout.
You get a greater increase in muscle endurance and toning in your shoulders, back, chest, upper arms and abdominals.
The poles provide stability and add more “spring” into your steps as you push along.
The use of poles helps to reduce stress in the knees and other joints.
Pole Walking loosens up tensions in neck and shoulders which is beneficial if you have a job where you sit in one position most of the day.
Your posture improves with right technique and arm motion and it is up to 40% more effective as an exercise than regular walking.
Your oxygen intake increases significantly, and your heart rate is 5-17 beats more per minute, compared to when regular walking.
To organize an individual or group demonstration or for further information call 6118 2716.
