Pole walking turns an excellent aerobic activity into a total body aerobic exercise.
By activating or incorporating the muscles of the upper body, we find that people burn
more calories and they effectively tone and tighten those muscle groups that are largely
neglected in regular walking.
We've seen through clinical studies that you can actually expand or burn up to 40% more
calories with pole walking as compared to regular walking.
And that has major significance as it relates to individuals achieving their weight loss
goal.
We know that lack of time is the number one reason people are not participating in a regular
exercise program.
By maximizing the effectiveness of an aerobic exercise program by using or incorporating
poles, you'll find that people are able to achieve those goals much more effectively
and stick with it longer.
Mall retailers hope that these mall walkers will use their increased energy and time to
burn as many dollars as they do calories.
