I just walk for enjoyment. Why should I Exerstride?
As people
age, certain physical changes generally occur, including weight gain, loss
of muscle mass, loss of muscle strength and endurance, loss of bone density,
decreasing cardiovascular capacity, and eventually loss of balance, confidence
and the ability to remain physically independent. These changes are by no means
inevitable if we exercise regularly. But now experts now advise we should do
both aerobic and muscle strengthening exercise. Despite the experts’ advice, fewer than one in four people participates in any type of regular program of exercise. If you already walk, you’re in the top 25% of the population in terms of fitness, but walking does little to maintain upper body muscle strength. Exerstriding simultaneously works all the body’s major muscles and in addition it more effectively prevents weight gain, helps maintain overall bone density, increases cardiovascular capacity and increases confidence by improving balance and posture. If you’re going to invest in exercise by walking, Exerstriding is like putting your investment in a “bank” with a significantly higher interest rate. Without feeling like you’re investing more energy and with no additional investment in time, you’ll reap much greater fitness returns!
