The Nordic Team

The Nordic Track cross-country ski machine may not be providing accurate training or proper exercise for competitive or recreational cross-country skiers. This topic interests the Nordic team because one day we too aspire to be avid Nordic Track users and take advantage of its supposed benefits. In addition we thought it would be enjoyable to analyze cross-country skiing.
