Book Description

July 17, 2006
Nordic Walking is an outdoor fitness activity which involves about 90% of all muscles. The physical exercise and mental relaxation in natural surroundings just may be the most important reason for this sport's rapid increase in popularity. Do you know what Nordic Walking entails exactly? Do you know what to note in particular when buying Nordic Walking equipment? Do you use the Nordic Walking technique properly and never receive comments? Do you devise your own training programmes? Congratulations - you have no need whatsoever for this book. But if, like most of us, you are enthusiastic about Nordic Walking and want to know all about it, this book has been written for you. It provides all the necessary information: techniques are clearly explained and it includes assessment criteria which allow you to assess and improve your personal Nordic Walking technique. This book provides extensive information about the following aspects: - The Nordic Walking fitness concept; - Equipment - the difference between requirements and gadgets; - The Nordic Walking technique (on an even surface as well as in the mountains), including assessment criteria and tips to prevent mistakes regularly made; - Nordic Walking training and the formulation of your own training programmes; - Keeping your own training journal. This book is an essential reference for both starting and experienced Nordic Walkers. It is a practical and clear instruction book illustrated with numerous photos, drawings, diagrams, and cartoons. A must for every Nordic Walker, a wonderful present to give and an even more wonderful present to receive!
