The history of Nordic Walking goes back to Scandinavia in the early 30s, when professional skiers of that time began to look for ways to maintain their shape in the summer, in the absence of snow.
According to clinical studies on Nordic walking:
About 90% of all muscles of the body are trained – this is a fact confirmed by physiologists.
Due to the sticks, the pressure on the knees and joints decreases, the load on the lower back, hip and knee joints decreases by 35%.
It burns 20% more calories than when walking normally. The muscles of the lower and upper body are in good shape at the same time.
Metabolic processes are activated, fat metabolism is accelerated, and the level of endophrines in the blood increases by 5 times.
