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!
York Nordic provided the best, thoughtful customer service I have ever encountered. I had purchased the wrong grip poles, so I emailed York Nordic, asking for advice. Lauren immediately sent me new poles while I returned and was credited for the originals.
I have used Smart Crutches for about 10 years now. They are great for limited weight bearing or if you’re like me and can’t bear weight on wrists and hands so the weight is instead shifted to the forearm which helps tremendously for chronic/long-term use! Would love to have more frame color options but it’s nice getting to decorate the cuffs!
These walking poles are exceptional. After spine surgery, and then some complications, these walking poles are a godsend. Using them encourages me to be mindful of my posture and more confident with balance while building endurance. I particularly like the contoured hand rests that enhance my comfort while gaining my stride.
I think these are incredibly comfortable! My forearm sizing fell at 9.1, and I wish I’d sized down (7.5 to 9) rather than selecting the 9.1-10 option, since it fits slightly too big and rides closer to my elbows than I would have liked! Overall pretty happy, though!
