Nordic walking as a contemporary activity form of seniors
29 Mar 2025
There is a gradual aging process in every person. However, the pace of this process is individualized. This process can be slowed down in the presence of favorable factors, which include physical activity. Engaging in physical activity affects the cardiovascular, respiratory, locomotor, nervous and immune systems, reduces blood pressure problems, lowers the risk of dementia, reduces the risk of falling, increases energy when walking and improves an individual's posture. The results of the study indicate that an excellent form of activity for seniors is Nordic walking due to the possibility of individual adjustment to the individual's capabilities, the terrain of walking, the lack of time constraints and financial outlay.
