Walking Poles

Jan 11, 2009

A friend told me about walking poles - much like ski poles.  I have begun using them and think they are great.  Found them at Target for $19.99 a pair.  It says on the pkg that you will burn 45% more calories using the walking poles than you would walking without them.  I have no idea whether you actually burn that many more, but I do believe I can tell I am burning more.  I recommend them.  I tend to slump over when I walk and, if nothing else, they are helping me improve my posture.
