Burn more calories than traditional walking. Nordic walking helps burn more fat than normal walking or low-impact exercise. In Nordic walking, a person uses more upper body muscles and requires considerable energy expenditure. It increases calorie burning by upto 46% and helps get the same upper-body result without increasing your walking speed. Since your foot makes more predictable motions when walking, it does a good job of measuring steps. Nice ones will also measure distance walked based on how far your foot travels and will also estimate your stride length. Garmin's will also measure foot contact time to ground and some other running dynamic stats. Leki fixed length poles generally come in lengths of 100cm to 130cm in 5cm steps. This caters for the majority of people. An advantage of fixed length poles is they only have a single section, so do not have clamps. This makes them lighter and there tends to be less vibration in the pole. r7TF7oY.
