Background: Interest around Nordic Walking (NW) has increased in recent years. However, direct comparisons of NW with normal walking (W), particularly in ecologically valid environments is lacking. The aim of our study was to compare NW and W, over long distances in a natural mountain environment. A 5mph 5K run is estimated to burn around 286kcal while a 6mph 5K estimates 306kcal. As we can see, the differences for the same distance are minimal β€” speed and overall calorie burn. But it Background Cadence (steps/min) may be a reasonable proxy-indicator of ambulatory intensity. A summary of current evidence is needed for cadence-based metrics supporting benchmark (standard or point of reference) and threshold (minimums associated with desired outcomes) values that are informed by a systematic process. Objective To review how fast, in terms of cadence, is enough, with reference
1. Introduction. Nordic Walking (NW) is a relatively high intensity activity that involves marching using poles adapted from cross-country skiing poles in order to activate upper body muscles that would not be used during normal walking [1], [2].
This usually means you have to shorten the poles a bit from the length you usually have them. If you are walking up a steep trail, you will need to shorten them to maintain that 90 degree angle. If you are walking downhill, you will need to lengthen them. The steeper the trail, the more considerable will be the adjustment. Nordic walking is a full-body, low-impact workout that consists of walking using specialized poles. When done correctly, it can engage up to 90% of your muscles and offer an intense cardiovascular and strength-training workout, according to experts. β€œThe basic concept is you add upper body activity in the context of using Nordic poles, or
Running burns more calories per minute than walking, but it’s harder to keep the high-intensity for a long time. There is a γ€œ30% difference in calorie burn between a slow walk and a moderate run for the same distance. Further increases in running speed won’t cause a dramatic increase in calories burned. Both walking and running burn
