Summary: Trekking poles require training for optimal use.
Comment: Trekking poles, used optimally, can provide a complete body workout while adding strength, endurance and stability to hiking. Many people assume poles can be used intuitively. They can't. Hiking with poles is a sophisticated athletic activity that requires intense training to develop muscle memory in many muscle groups. Jayah Faye Paley has produced the only comprehensive training DVDs for using poles."Poles for Hiking, Trekking and Walking" demonstrates a range of skills for using poles for recreation and conditioning. "Poles for Balance and Mobility" provides training for those with mobility challenges. I have a PhD in backpacking and have been a Sierra Club outing leader for over 30 years. Paley's training revolutionized my hiking. Using her methods, I can hike longer and harder trails. These DVDs change peoples lives. I recommend them for anyone who walks.
