Hey, fellow adventurers! Joan here, your trusty guide to all things BodyReady. Today, I'm thrilled to introduce you to your new hiking companions – the TrailBuddy Trekking Poles. Whether you're conquering rugged trails or wandering through serene landscapes, these lightweight and collapsible hiking poles are here to elevate your outdoor experience.
Walking poles, also known as trekking poles or hiking poles, offer numerous health benefits for outdoor enthusiasts:
Improved stability and balance: Walking poles provide additional points of contact with the ground, enhancing stability and balance, especially on uneven terrain or slippery surfaces. This can reduce the risk of falls and injuries during hikes. I particularly appreciate this feature, since walking is currently a little challenging for me, and my balance is not what it used to be.
Reduced joint strain: By redistributing weight from the lower body to the upper body, walking poles can help alleviate strain on the knees, hips, and ankles. This is particularly beneficial for those of us with arthritis or joint pain.
Increased cardiovascular workout: Engaging the upper body muscles while walking with poles adds intensity to the workout, leading to a more effective cardiovascular exercise. This can improve heart health and stamina over time.
Enhanced posture and core strength: Holding and using walking poles correctly encourages proper posture and engages the core muscles. This can help strengthen abdominal and back muscles, leading to better posture and reduced risk of back pain.
Calorie burning and weight management: Walking with poles increases the intensity of the activity, leading to higher calorie expenditure compared to regular walking. Who knew?! This can aid in weight management and contribute to overall fitness goals.
Stress reduction and mental well-being: Spending time outdoors and engaging in physical activity like hiking with walking poles can reduce stress levels, boost mood, and improve mental well-being. It provides an opportunity for relaxation, mindfulness, and connection with nature.
Overall, incorporating walking poles into your outdoor activities can promote physical health, improve fitness levels, and enhance the overall hiking experience.
Back to the TrailBuddy poles: When it comes to hiking gear, durability is non-negotiable. That's why TrailBuddy trekking poles are built to last. Crafted from strong aircraft-grade 7075 aluminum, these poles can handle whatever terrain you throw their way, from rocky paths to winding trails.
But here's the kicker – despite their tough construction, these hiking poles are surprisingly lightweight. Weighing almost 4oz less than your average trekking poles, they won't weigh you down as you journey through the great outdoors.
Adjustability is key when it comes to hiking poles, and TrailBuddy delivers. With the ability to set your desired height in seconds, from a maximum of 54" down to just 24.5" when fully collapsed, these poles are designed to accommodate adventurers of all sizes. Plus, they even double as hiking poles for kids – talk about versatility!
Ease of use? Check. The lever locks can be effortlessly operated with just one hand, making adjustments a breeze. No more struggling with two-handed twist locks – with TrailBuddy, you can focus on enjoying the journey.
And let's not forget about comfort. With padded straps and moisture-wicking cork handles, these poles will mold to the shape of your hand for a secure and comfortable grip with every step. Plus, the threaded pole tips ensure that accessories stay securely attached, even in challenging conditions like snow or mud.
I bring these when I travel, and can make them about 12" long to fit in a travel bag.
