Gary Johnson leads a 'Nordic Sand Walking' class at Santa Monica beach during the Walking & Nordic Walking Health Expo on Sunday, May 30, 2009. One of the most effective activities for burning calories and building cardiovascular fitness is cross-country skiing because both large upper and lower body muscles are fully engaged. Nordic Walking burns 20-46% more calories than regular walking. (Source: Cooper Institute, Dallas, Texas)
