Nordic walking is defined as fitness walking with specially designed poles. It evolved from a summer training activity for cross-country skiers in Finland, to become a way of exercising year-round, developed in co-operation with sports equipment manufacturers, researchers in sports medicine, and other fitness professionals.
Nordic walking can be done year round in any climate and anywhere a person of any age or ability might otherwise walk without poles. It combines simplicity and accessibility of walking with simultaneous core and upper body conditioning similar to Nordic skiing.
