Nordic walking is a great form of physical activity using a pair of specially designed Nordic walking poles. It is a safe way to improve your natural walking technique alongside fitness levels by allowing the body to work in a balanced way. Using nordic walking poles means your walking becomes more efficient and increases the muscles working in the upper body. This means 90% of the body’s skeletal muscles are used, turning your normal walk into an all over body workout A Better Medway are offering a free to attend taster session of our free to join a Nordic walking program.
