Nordic Dry Land Training --- DoublePole Vaulting? Lunging?
maybe lurching?
I have been enjoying my running with ski poles thing for a couple of months now and was hoping to get some advice on variations. I have found that I can make some very satisfyiing "double pole vaults" running up hills if I place my hands on the top of the hand grips rather than grasping the hand grips. It feels good kind of like flying a little bit and provides some upper body conditioning. I am not experiencing any wrist or rotator cuff discomfort and since I am going up hill on a soft dirt path the foot strike is light. Anybody have any thoughts on this topic. Thanks much, Ed V. |
