Sunday Sounds: A look back at Guy Lombardo's last New Year's Eve performance. Make this your last year for putting off exercise as you think about your resolutions.
Nordic Walking Guy's 3 rules: (1) Walk with purpose (2) Be consistent (3) Don't eat like a teenager!
Nordic walking for patients with heart failure
Of different
parameters measured, patients improved in the following:
- They could walk farther than the control group
- More regularly engaged in physical activity
- Great right hand grip strength
- Fewer symptoms of depression
The researchers did
not find significant changes in peak aerobic capacity, left-hand grip strength,
body weight, waist circumference, or symptoms of anxiety.
The overall
conclusion was Nordic walking yielded greater benefits during the 12-week study
than standard cardiac rehabilitation care.
