Özet

Nordic Walking (NW) is a low-cost, easy-to-apply, and safe exercise method that has positive effects, especially on cardiovascular and cardiometabolic diseases. This technique benefits cardiovascular dysfunctions such as coronary artery disease, arterial hypertension, hyperlipidemia, peripheral artery disease, and heart failure. Additionally, it has been shown to have beneficial effects on cardiometabolic disorders like impaired glucose tolerance, type 2 diabetes, and obesity. Studies recommend NW training programs typically performed two to three times a week, for 1 hour per session, and lasting at least 3 months. These regular applications improve cardiovascular functions and effectively reduce blood pressure. Moreover, improvements in insulin resistance and lipid profiles are observed, along with significant reductions in cardiometabolic risk factors. In conclusion, NW is an effective exercise option that can be integrated into community-based health programs to both enhance physical fitness and improve metabolic parameters. Especially for individuals at cardiovascular risk, the implementation of NW stands out as an important method supporting both health and quality of life.

Abstract

Nordik yürüyüş (NY), özellikle kardiyovasküler ve kardiyometabolik hastalıklar üzerinde olumlu etkileri olan düşük maliyetli, kolay uygulanabilir ve güvenli bir egzersiz yöntemidir. Bu yürüyüş tekniği, koroner arter hastalığı, arteriyel hipertansiyon, hiperlipidemi, periferik arter hastalığı ve kalp yetmezliği gibi kardiyovasküler fonksiyon bozukluklarında fayda sağlamaktadır. Ayrıca, bozulmuş glikoz toleransı, tip 2 diyabet ve obezite gibi kardiyometabolik rahatsızlıklarda da olumlu etkileri olduğu görülmüştür. İncelenen çalışmalarda, NY antrenman programlarının genellikle haftada iki ila üç kez, 1 saat ve en az 3 ay boyunca uygulanması önerilmektedir. Bu düzenli uygulamalar, kardiyovasküler fonksiyonları iyileştirirken kan basıncını düşürmede etkili sonuçlar vermektedir. Ayrıca, insülin direnci ve lipid profillerinde belirgin iyileşmeler sağlanmakta ve kardiyometabolik risk faktörlerinde anlamlı azalmalar kaydedilmektedir. Sonuç olarak, NY hem fiziksel uygunluğu artırmak hem de metabolik parametreleri iyileştirmek için toplum temelli sağlık programlarına entegre edilebilecek etkili bir egzersiz seçeneğidir. Özellikle kardiyovasküler riski bulunan bireylerde NY’nin uygulanması, hem sağlık hem de yaşam kalitesini destekleyici önemli bir yöntem olarak öne çıkmaktadır.
