NORDIC WALKING

Nordic Walking en provenance des pays scandinaves est une simple activité en plein air, une légère séance d'entraînement qui construit endurance,  force et  fitness. il est suffisant avoir  de chaussures de randonnée, confortable robe, deux bâtons de poignées et de rien d'autre ...

Nordic Walking est plus efficace que la normale marche sans bâtons. Environ 90% de tous muscles  participe à l'activitè. Grâce à l'utilisation de bâtons le poids du chargement sur les articulations, le dos et les genoux est moins intense et l'exécution correcte de la technique permet de corriger les erreurs de posture.

Pourquoi avons-nous utiliser des bâtons pour la marche nordique?

The Nordic Walking is  a gentle sport that favors  workout without contraindications; it is more  effective than a normal walk  thanks to use special sticks, it also trains the upper body: shoulders, arms and back.

The Nordic Walking is also  healther than running because body's weight rests not only on one leg (such as jogging) and doesn't stress joints.

Indeed, especially when we run, hip, tibio-tarsal and knee joints  load a multiple of their body weight. This overloading varying  depending on the terrain and the technique of race (over the asphalt racing is  essentially more stressing that in a wood). By Nordic Walking tecnique at least one foot is always on the ground, the athlete does not jump, but in a controlled manner puts one foot in front of the other. The back foot is raised only when the weight  moves to the front foot and the opposite stick while when we run weight is already on the other foot.

For this reason Nordic Walking is a suggested activity to people who are overweight and want to fit or for people who have phisical problems in joints. Even runners choose the Nordic Walking permanently or temporarily, for example when they have problems in their knees or hips, or when they have to recover completely from an injury and  follow periods of rehabilitation.

Another difference  consist in the speed during the sport activity. Those who practice running smoothly reaches a  double speed compared to those who practice  Nordic Walking. Using the right technique and the muscles of the legs  who run  can gradually increase its speed as he likes.

In Nordic Walking speed is determined by performing the motion. The length of the step can be increased according to its natural limits.

These factors limit the degree of fatigue and  the movement will give benefit without exceeding the maximum limits. Condition that allows the practice of Nordic Walking even to those who have heart problems.

In short, Nordic walking, if done correctly and on the guidance of qualified instructors becomes sport for all!
