FitWalk Clinics
(A walking session for all the family and all levels of fitness) (TBC)
Recent surveys suggest that ‘physical fitness’ is a key motivator for walkers. Unfortunately, many walkers gain very little in terms of physical fitness. This is because we need to walk at a higher level of intensity in order to optimise heart/lung benefits and fat-burning benefits. That does not necessarily mean walking faster sometimes it’s just a matter of adjusting your walking technique!
Attendance at a FitWalk Clinic will teach you how to squeeze every ounce of fitness from your walks. In particular, the clinic will demonstrate:
- Warm up (simple exercises to loosen up)
- Demonstration and practice of good walking technique and posture
- Information on how to improve aerobic fitness and body tone
- How to incorporate walking into everyday life for good health and ENJOYMENT
- Demonstration of use of Nordic poles (optional)
Duration: approx 45 mins Cost: FREE
Places limited: 16max. (Issued on a first-come-first-served basis and are subject to demand)
The FitWalk Clinic’s are facilitated by a qualified tutor. The clinic is a mixture of theory and practical sessions (so ensure you wear suitable clothing). Participants should be in good health and have a reasonable level of fitness.
