2001 had major back surgery and using poles really increases the amount of time I can walk. As a former body builder my arms are very heavy with the mass I have across my shoulders and chest it is a no brainer to use them.

More news shows should feature such vital information.

The announcer mistakingly said to adjust the poles long for up hill and short for down.

I thought that was correct.

No, the general rule is to keep the poles planted in the downhill direction.
