Nordic Walking in the rehabilitation of Amazons
29 Mar 2025
The use of poles, as additional utensils to supplement a training program involving brisk walking and pushing off from the ground, resulted in increased cardiovascular and respiratory loads and increased energy expenditure, without experiencing greater physical exertion. In addition, marching with poles engages large muscle groups of the upper body and arm extensor muscles. These obvious benefits of regular Nordic Walking,find their application both in health-promoting prevention and in the physical rehabilitation of orthopedic patients, cardiac patients, patients with obesity, diabetes, osteoporosis and also, based on many scientific studies, in a group of oncology patients, especially after partial or radical mastectomy surgery.
