Review: VIP Ski Walking Fitness Poles

Thursday September 8, 2005
I've been nordic walking lately - walking with fitness walking poles. The VIP Very Important Ski Walking Fitness Poles are a special design of nordic walking poles. Compared with "normal" walking, walking with fitness walking poles burns 40% more calories per mile, plus you tone their upper body and abs while relieving strain on the hips, knees, and ankles. Even better, while burning more calories you feel the same or less exertion.
