Which poles suit this program

The Walkathlon suits a condition where good days and bad days differ. Its moveable locking system holds the poles rigid for support alone on days when that is all you want, and unlocks to 4 kg of resistance when you feel up to more, with a free upgrade to 6 kg included. Being able to drop back without changing equipment matters when symptoms fluctuate. The Number One is the simpler alternative if fixed 4 kg resistance is all you need.
