Holding the handles correctly

The natural movements we are aiming to achieve are all facilitated by the unique features on the WALX handle.

As tempting as it might be to ‘grab and go’ taking a few minutes to practice getting a light relaxed grip and the correct pole angle will make all the difference to the results you will get from pole walking

Note – If you do not have WALX poles, I do not recommend that you replicate a light grip with handles not designed for that purpose and that a straight pole shaft could compromise wrist angles when practising the drills outlined in the total body walking section.
