Have you see people walking with long strides using what looks like ski poles? You have probably watched someone exercising using the Nordic Walking technique, the exciting new sport that has taken Northern Europe by storm.

This is a low impact, full body workout that requires high levels of co-ordination and which increases calorie consumption by up to 46%. At the same time it stimulates up to 90% of your muscle mass and greatly enhances upper body muscle endurance.

Nordic Walking is a fun socially interactive exercise activity that positively influences co-ordination, power, flexibility and endurance.

Look for a Salovita Nordic walking  program near you.  (www.salovita.co.za)
