Basic Nordic Walking Technique Keep the poles close to the body. The stride begins as the heel touches the ground and ends when the toe together with the ball of the foot pushes itself off the ground. The pelvis lifts up high and the general posture is taut and forward leaning. The upper and lower torso is involved in a clearly defined counter-swinging motion during which the mid-torso muscle groups are actively worked. Opposite arms and legs swing alternately forwards and back. The basis of Nordic Walking starts with a good walking technique. A good walking technique begins with the heel strike and ends when the toe and the ball of the foot push off the ground. Nordic Walking enhances good walking technique with a sequence of pole movements that propel the body forward and increase the walking stride.
