Mandarin Leisure, the Personal Training club in Lincoln, is excited to announce a special event focused on Gymstick Nordic Walking. This popular activity, which originated in Finland, has been used by cross country skiers for their summer training programmes for over four decades.
So, what exactly is Gymstick Nordic Walking? Well, it involves using poles in a cross country skiing action while walking. This unique combination activates not only your legs, but also your arms, pelvis, and upper body. The rhythmic swing of the arms and legs during Nordic Walking leads to a fantastic 20-25% increase in aerobic fitness. And let's not forget about the significant improvement in upper body muscle tone and density!
But the benefits don't stop there. Nordic Walking has been proven to be incredibly beneficial for individuals with walking difficulties, including the elderly and those with conditions like MS, ME, and Parkinson's disease. It's also a great option for rehabilitation purposes.
The best part? Nordic Walking can be enjoyed by people of all fitness levels. Whether you're a seasoned athlete looking to take your fitness to the next level or just starting your wellness journey, this activity is for you. It's not only an excellent way to improve fitness and increase muscle tone and range of movement, but it's also a incredible opportunity to socialise and connect with others who share your passion for staying active.
At Mandarin Leisure, we offer both individual Personal Training sessions and group classes for Gymstick Nordic Walking. You can choose the option that suits you best. And hey, if you're a fitness professional or a gym owner interested in becoming a Gymstick Nordic Walking instructor, we've got you covered too!
