In the spirit of March basketball madness we wondered how many miles a player moves in an average game?
The distance a basketball player moves during a game can vary based on several factors such as playing style, position, and the specific dynamics of the game. On average, a professional basketball player covers around 2 to 3 miles (3.2 to 4.8 km) during a game. This distance is often covered through a combination of running, sprinting, and shuffling on the court. Keep in mind that these figures are general estimates, and individual player statistics may vary. Advanced player tracking technologies, such as those used in the NBA, provide precise data on player movements during games.
Well, we may not be playing basketball but we do like to move! Walking poles for balance, stability and exercise...enough to be a player! Let's Get Out There!
I have enjoyed using these so far (had several days now). I like the variety of patterns to decorate with. The flexibility of the crutch tips are very useful; I didn't realize I needed that feature until upgrading from my standard crutches! The ease of changing crutch length far surpasses that of standard crutches, and my wrists are VERY happy with reduced pressure.
I do fall almost perfectly between measurements for forearm length and circumference which is unfortunate because both options are a little uncomfortable. I also don't love how much incredibly visible branding there is compared to most mobility products.
Overall I’m happy with these poles. I love the fact they are adjustable and affordable. The only concern I have are the locking mechanisms on the poles - mine don’t snap down so occasionally one pole or the other begins to collapse.
The net pocket is so perfect for holding phones and the internal pocket has plenty of space for wallets and other stuff without being too big. This was exactly what i needed.
