:happy: Hi I am a new member and was wondering if anyone knows how many calories you burn nordic walking. I am not sure what to fill in. If anyone is looking for a activity to try to get you moving You might want to give this a try. Its easier walking with the poles and you burn more calories because you are using your whole body. Thanks cynma

    If the info isn't on here, it's often worth looking at caloriecount.com

    It's a pleasure. You might need to up that a little based on your weight (that link was presuming 150lb - not sure how that compares to you?)

    ok, do you know how much I would up it for lets say for example every 10 pounds past 150. I have quite a bit to hopefully loose. I am new at this and am not sure what you mean. thanks again for your help cynma
