What are the benefits of using trekking poles?

Trekking Poles help keep your body in balance and prevent any falls or stumbles as you travel along the rugged terrain.

As you cross the river, the pole adds another fulcrum to your body, helping you maintain balance in a fast-moving, slippery river.

Trekking Poles reduce the impact on your legs, knees, ankles, and feet, especially as you descend. A 1999 study in the Journal of Sports Medicine showed that trekking poles reduced knee compression by 25 percent

Using Trekking Poles while walking allows you to establish and maintain a constant rhythm, which speeds up your pace. Especially in non-technical terrain, flat land, the performance is more obvious.
