Not all at once!
If you think about it and look at people, it doesn't look difficult at all. I take poles in my hands and admire the beauty of nature. Nothing could be more wrong. We have to be careful and choose the right one exercise technique. We can't just walk around, because it can do us more harm than good. In the beginning, it was a good idea to go with a trainer.
