Helpful Nordic Walking Instructions - The American Nordic Walking System:

Pete - LOVE 'EM LOVE 'EM LOVE 'EM!!!! Now, I probably will never do my walks without my nordic walking poles ever again! Yes, your instructions were very good and I can see that my skiing will be even better this winter! What a sport! Yesterday I biked up in NH at the Franconia Notch State Park and I was thinking while biking, "wow, this trail would have been GREAT with the poles!".
Be thankful for our United Stated of America. Thanks!
cheers,
Tina

Nordic Walking For Weight Loss:

I think I have been Nordic Walking almost every single day since we met with you. The nordic walking poles have been highly motivating. I continue to feel that I get a much better overall work out and have lost both inches and pounds with the inches being from the mid-section!
Again, thank you so much -- Hope to see you again at some point!

Nordic Walking Lowers Blood Pressure:

Hi,
Purchased your nordic ski walking poles a few months ago. I continue to LOVE them! Keeps my blood pressure down 30 points from 148/90 to 118/70. My previous doctor said I couldn't get results with life style changes fast enough to avoid medication, guess she never tried ski walking. My new doctor thinks ski walking is a great lifestyle change. I must say I keep forgetting I don't need to walk as long to get good results but I enjoy it so much I still continue to increase the distance. The relief it offers the arthritis in my hip (no I am not old!), knee and ankle which I injured in a car accident is a benefit like no other.
Thank you, thank you,
Sharon

Loves Nordic Walking:

Thanks for the information about Ski Walking. I love the ski walking poles and am the talk of the neighborhood. I am trying to convince my neighbors to get a pair. I actually look forward to my daily walks and jogs. I have lost weights due to the poles and sugar buster meals. I second the motion from your other users. WOW!

Nordic Walking great for NEW knees:

The nordic ski walking poles work great for me. Give me support and makes it easier walk. I have two knee replacements and one is not working properly - collapses on occasions, and the poles keep me from falling. They are great!

Nordic Walking Success And Parkinson's:

I just returned from a 14 day trip to London and Ireland. I was able to do almost everything using my nordic ski walking poles or "walking sticks" as they call them in England and Ireland. I could not have considered this trip without my "walking sticks" and I am grateful for them. I hope all Parkinson's patients will be able make use of " walking sticks".

Again, thanks for making my once in a lifetime adventure a reality.

Nordic Walking Poles Increase Walking Speed:

HI Pete!

Oh my gosh! I am amazed by the workout with these nordic ski walking poles. I walk at 3.8 to 4.0 mph anyway. These poles seem to increase my speed (which I thought to be virtually impossible), and they certainly increased the impact of my workout.

I love the poles! Thank you very much!

Nordic Walking - 100% Positive Feedback:

Hi Pete.

The nordic walking poles came today. They look great. My husband really liked the looks of them as well. The straps feel good, too. Your generous upgrade along with the extra tips was really above and beyond. No wonder you have 100% positive feedback.

It finally stopped raining this a.m. so I had already been walking once today. Again I was pleasantly surprised with the arm/shoulder workout.

Enjoy your spring/summer. I will have fun ski walking! Thanks for all your suggestions, support and generosity.

Nordic Walking Success And MS:

My husband bought me your nordic ski walking poles for my birthday last week. I LOVE them. I have MS and walk with a slight limp and my balance is off sometimes. I am now walking in the park at a brisk walk every day for about 1 1/2 miles. Thank you so much. They make a big difference in my walking. I told him they are the best birthday present he has ever bought me.
Thanks again.

Nordic Walking Eliminates Knee Pain:

Hi Pete,
I tried out the nordic ski walking poles yesterday on a 2.5 hour hike and had to battle with my friends to use them as they all wanted to try them out. I was amazed that for the first time in years...I hadn't any knee pain at all...they're fantastic!!! We've all been skeptical because the only people you see using them in LA are the wealthy....and usually it's a fad....but I'm completely sold! Thanks to Dr. Northrups newsletter encouraging the use the poles and your terrific company, my walks/hikes will be thoroughly enjoyable now. I know what I'll be buying for gifts now!
Regards,
Rebecca

Nordic Walking Success And Arthritis:

I received your "Swix Nordic Walking Poles" and would like to thank you because they do work.

I am 56 years old and because of arthritic knee pain I gave up walking about 1 year ago and switched to a stationary bike because it creates less impact. Since receiving your Nordic Walking Poles about 2 weeks ago I have been walking 1 1/2 to 2 miles a day and have had no reoccurring knee pain. I know this is because with your poles I am able to transfer some of the weight to my upper body therefore reducing the jarring to my knees. It's almost like having 4 legs! So far I've only used them in our South Florida urban setting, but in 3 weeks I'm taking them to Colorado, and the Wasatch Range in Utah.
Thanks Again
Wayne

Nordic Walking For Weight Loss:

The nordic ski walking poles arrived on schedule. I have been walking with them for about six weeks now. The nordic walking straps are very comfortable. I walk every day and am up to 1.5 hrs. I have lost 15 pounds and have taken 4 inches off my waist.

Couldn't want for better results. My arms and upper body are getting into great shape. I still need to shed about 20 pounds but I am confident that the poles will do it for me. Fifty years ago I was very active in gymnastics and was in really excellent health and condition. I am beginning to feel my muscles returning. The spring is coming back in my step.
Don't know what more I can say but Thanks, love the poles.
Clay
