A revised and updated second edition of the popular Complete Guide to Nordic Walking.

Nordic walking, a specific technique for walking with poles that is far more effective in burning calories and whole-body toning than walking alone, is growing rapidly in the UK and worldwide.

The Complete Guide to Nordic Walking: 2nd Edition will help you understand everything you need to know about Nordic walking whether you are a beginner, a more experienced Nordic walking enthusiast or a health and fitness professional.

This updated guide expels all the myths and simply provides advice and information on how to Nordic walk, who with, where and most importantly why. Organised into clear sections to help you to find exactly what you are looking for, it is packed with tips, case studies, research, exercise plans and equipment advice. It is the complete manual for Nordic walkers of all levels.

This revised second edition includes:
- information about the latest equipment and techniques
- the most recent research into the benefits of Nordic walking
- new photographs and case studies
- updates on the sport's worldwide scene
- revised advice about the professional use of Nordic walking

The Complete Guide to Nordic Walking is endorsed by Nordic Walking UK and includes contributions from experts around the world.
