ibodyWALK Logo and Branding ( wants to here from you )
What happened before my one minute pitch during the Shark Tank interview for the show was clear to me that we are on track to break the stereotype that most think of when they see someone walking with poles. The change is here to overcome the stereotype whether you walk or do not with poles. There is so much more and with that the rising tide of participation in the U.S. raises all ships 😉
I presented to a seasoned Fitness Professional who saw these images above before I pitched my ideas. He said; “no need to say anything, I get it, in fact I see poles out here in Santa Monica, California a lot. Really was not attracted to doing it myself, as I am a runner. Yet these images add something that gives me more and opens up to doing it with others anywhere….”
If you have an opinion, of course give me what you like and do not like, or what you hope for to grow ibodyWALK…

It’s EASY!! Fitness Poles + Freehand + Stretchcord Exercises designed for 6 and up; health challenged, fitness training for beginners thru advanced and the very athletic that are looking to x-train or stay in shape in off-season.
Health Challenges – (mobility, stability, prescriptive and rehabilitation)
Fitness Training – (cardio endurance, strength, flexibility and weight loss)
Sport X-Training – (core, agility, off-season)
For 20 years now in the U.S. Pole Walking, Nordic Walking or Fitness Walking which we can call the generic term describing a multitude of brand names (Google any generic to find a brand name). Most all brands have been well intended, yet without long-term participation and as such have gone virtually unnoticed for years. This I have discovered is primarily due to the focus on a limited participant demographic by an equally small number of active pole walking leaders. I commend their intentions.
The final “ibodyWALK”tm products and programming will be a result of key partnerships (released soon) which will bring a great deal of excitement and activity. We will set up demos at no charge in; churches, schools, corporations, neighborhoods, active living communities, health and medical facilities in order to build on this unlimited venture.
The proof of concept has been successfully demonstrated by the consumer demand beginning in the spring of 2012 thru spring of 2013 in my previous Pole Walking initiatives. This has led to over 3000 participants from around the country and counting who own poles and have begun to pole walk. In response to 100s of personal conversations and the overwhelming requests I needed to support this growth with a concept name. Drum roll for the Next PC of Walking — “ibodyWALK”tm. This will quickly create a movement that will take “ibodyWALK”tm to be the “Next Health and Fitness Wave of this Millennium”tk. There will be easy to learn online videos, instructional materials which can be combined with any Fitness Walking Pole as we launch in to spring of 2014.
The key motivation for me with “ibodyWALK”tm is a purposed solution that quickly answers the lack of human movement (physical fitness) in our busy day using a simple to use tool and activity. The multiplying health effect of walking with poles with proper form and effort can deliver near to 2 x the benefits of that of regular walking (the field testing study at the Cooper Institute by Church and colleagues in 2002 is one of many Pole Walking research studies). When the programming of “ibodyWALK”tm makes the additions of the Poles, Freehand exercises and the Stretch-cords the benefits to a wider cross-section of participants cannot be matched anywhere.
Come and join us!! Let us change the way we WALK, why we WALK, where we WALK and of course who we WALK with for better health, fitness and sport in the U.S.. By doing so you will be joining millions of other walkers who will “Take Your Walking to the Next Level”.
