Just go an idea to keep me motivate to make more execise. For each 15 minutes of excercises/ pole/ stretching/ other, i will give myself 1 kilometer (or you can pick a mile). And i we see how far i can go or in how long can i reach to another veener or better to Veena's place 😀 A little bit like a airmiles system but without the chance to travel in real, to bad lol
Ok, I'm in! I did a 29 day challenge at my studio and I increased my water intake, ate as vegan as possible, make protein shakes every morning, cut out processed sugar and dairy, and washed my face in the am and pm (I'm lazy and always forget to wash at night!). I lost 2 inches off my waist and 4 mm of belly fat. Then I fell off the wagon and need some motivation. This is perfect!! My goals: Increase water to at least 64 oz a day Eliminate processed sugar (I'm pretty dairy free now) Make the delicious protein shakes again! Eat cleaner. As raw/vegan as possible with a meat type protein once a week (no beef, chicken or turkey) Cardio! Currently at one day/week. Make it at least three Practice Pole at Least 4 x per week Pilates at least 4x per week. Woot woot! Mel
Well I was the first to agree and almost missed my mark on my goal to set goals. So.. I will proabably have to add some later. To lift my tg handspring~ may be wishful thinking! Middle splits Work on back flexibility weekly Flag invert (I hope to have this much, much sooner.) Give one day to dance every week.
OH BOY! 100 days uh! Can we have our own survivor series please. -to be more flexible -work on 1 hr stretching 3 x per wk -to obtain my splits -to do pole 3 to 6 hrs per wk (this wk I did 4.5 hrs) & stretching nil (don't like stretching) -mmm...I already walk pretty much 10km's per day with my dog -to point my toes and not get cramps

It was hard to even write down my goal, but here it is. At the end of 100 days I would like to seduce my husband with a provocative dance. A while ago, I realized that I was uncomfortable being consciensly seductive. I decided to develop that side of myself but stalled. A couple of years ago, I bought a dvd to help me The irresistible art of exotic dance." I bought the cute outfit. I practiced in private for a little while. But I never went forward. I was wating to get rid of my belly, and become really good. Years later the dvd still sits in my underwear drawer. I have watched videos, been a member of this site, started pole dancing lessons, considered more dvds to buy, bought the booty clap dvd and fell in love with moves that I have seen other people do. But I am no closer in doing a dance of my own. Some things I need to do to accomplish my goal. 1. Get a dvd player that hooks up to my computer so that I can practice in private and not in the public living room. 2. Arrange for childcare ( I have had a baby in the interim) 3. Get more fit, lose more of the baby weight. (More on how I will accomplish this later)
I am so excited to be part of this 100 day challenge. I'm new to this site. Here are my goal; -Drink at least 8 glasses of water a day - I always fail at this but I going to stick to it -Finish the 90 day Julian Michaels DVD...I'm 3 weeks in! -Do the six week split -Pole at least 2x a time week/Practice floor work also. -Don't eat after 8 p.m. -Stop drinking soda -Lose 10 lbs, hopefully 15 -Get enough courage to pole dance in front of my husband -Complete the booty clap DVD -Eat Right - Everyone knows what this means! GOOD LUCK EVERY ONE!
I'm in this would be great to have others commenting on their progress maybe this way I will get the courage to post my first video :) .
Wow, I am really excited so many people are on board - of course anyone can join whenever they want. @ Black Rose: tell me about the booty clap DVD; is it good? Is it hard? @ monary: hang in there!! I think you will feel great if you can do that dance for your husband. Today I weighed myself: 161 lbs - goal weight 147...
Yes! Do tell about the booty clap DVD. I feel as if I am missing a much needed muscle that will assist me in booty pops and claps! So I failed my first day. I'm camping with my husband and bought a bunch of snacks. But, as soon as we return to civilization, BRING IT! I did, however, bring my little blender, protein powder and frozen fruit and bananas so I am making us smoothies for breakfast. (did I mention that we have full hook ups. It's not like we are in the boondocks, civilized just means near my pole) Ok everyone. Get with the challenge embracing! Oh! And I have modified my challenge. To post a monthly challenge video since I keep putting it off! I am starting next month, June. Anyone know if the challenge is posted yet? Xoxoxo, Mel
Love this, count me in. Still thinking about goals, but I know I want to devote more time to pole practice, eat healthier, and get stronger (still rehabbing from injury ) this summer. Losing some weight and building strength should make a huge difference!
I should make myself do the challenges also...I never do them because I'm too chicken! But mayeb I should take myself out of my comfort zone...
I need to dig myself out of my rut too. Will be posting a few goals soon. Major one is to get out of my poor pitiful me depression and get back out into the world and into my fitness routine again. Losing that 10 pounds I gained due to the above. Getting some of my shaky pole moves stronger and nailing an invert into Superman.
I'm in! I sprained my wrist a few months ago and lost alot of strength. So my main goal will be to get my wrist (and body) back to where it was. Maybe even nail a TG or SM deadlift. Goal #2 I want to be able to grab my foot over my head. I feel like it's something I should be able to do and it's frustrating as hell that I can't! Goal #3 Splits all ways. I need to square my fronts and get the last few inches of my middles. (and by "few inches" I mean a foot :-/ I just want to be able to fake a middle split convincingly) Goal #4 Insert hippie dippy "Eat, Pray, Love" crap here
Oooh I love this! I have been "too busy" to pole yet I have been boozing all weekend. So maybe posting this will give me some motivation... :) And I will definitely have to shame myself because I can't think of anything else that will make me get off my lazy ass! LOL 1. Get my center splits- practice at least twice a week. I have my other two but my center splits are like 2 feet off the floor I've had Alethea Austin's DVDs since February and I haven't even gotten through the whole thing yet. Ughh! 2. Pole once a week. I currently pole maybe once a month and the occasional pole move on a unsuspecting street sign. I own a pole and I really should take advantage of it. 3. Practice transitions in addition to tricks. 4. Pole moves I want to get: Flat jade, allegra, spinning scorpio, and getting better at spin mode. 5. Hula hoop every day :D And hoop with fire once a week. My goal is to start performing with hoops.
Slow changes one step at a time. Have cut way back on diet soda for starters and drinking more water. Going to up the activity levels now.

Oh I need to join this, better late than never. Get my pole in the mail and set it up Go to gym at least twice a week Use the elliptical 3 times a week Drink more water, by July no soda!!! Eat more protein, lose 28 pounds Do stretching 3 times a week. I will start with those, but I want to check in every Friday for my progress.
How is everyone doing on meeting their goals so far? I know some of you joined in more recently, so it might not be time for you to report just yet. I've been doing okay - I was going to wait until tomorrow to post but I have time to do it now. I have definitley been working out more and drinking way more water. Also, I have been getting enough rest most of the time. I would rate this past week overall as not a total failure, but I didn't do that great. The big thing I really need to focus on this upcoming week is NOT smoking (obviously). I "normally" don't smoke or smoke rarely, but I have gotten into a terrible habit of smoking daily for quite some time and I am really starting to feel like crap. I can really notice when I'm doing a workout DVD and I'm getting winded where I never used to. So, on top of my goals of BBL, water, sleep, and poling, this week I am not drinking OR smoking. It is going to be hard because my husband is such a terrible influence. It's easier to just say, "No, thanks," if he asks me if I want a beer or to go smoke because if I say I'm trying to quit, he'll just try to talk me into it. Sheesh, he's normally a very good husband but when it comes to this area, I guess not!
So I started off great last week but I did not lose any weight. I didn't drink the 8 glasses a water a day & I did not do any pole dances.I was so busy but that shouldn't be an excuse. I am very disappointed but I am not giving up. So this is a new week hopefully I will focus and see a change. As for the Booty clap DVD, It a good DVD. However, its hard to see the booty shake because they are wearing a black leggings and the background is black. I understand in the booty clap forum the reason for the black was not to show to much to make people uncomfortable or to give off the wrong impression. But I wanted to see more shaking to make sure I was doing it right. The warm up is five mins, there is a lot of explaining how you should shake, its a work out for the legs and butt. Some upper body exercise because you have your butt in the air in a few exercises. It's a amateur made DVD but a fun DVD. I heard there will be a part two but I need to get part one finished before I can move on. I was very tired by the end. Because my right knee I could not do some exercises. I like this DVD but I would wait on more reviews before someone wanted to buy it.
Black Rose - don't give up!! I am disappointed in myself about what I did/didn't do yesterday but I messed up...Arg. Just move forward with positive intent! How good at the booty moves are you right now, before the video?
My 100-day challenge goals are: 1. right and left square split 2. develop my lower abs. 3. controlled inverts both floor and aerial 4. a more bendy back (for dove and crescent). 5. lose 10lbs. 6. do cardio workout to increase stamina. 7. pole twice a week with pole practice, also twice a week. (Learn how to do moves in spinning pole) 8. cleaner tricks and longer spins. 9. learn at least 2 new transition moves a week. 10. do at least 1 freestyle exercise a week. so help me God. :)
I just signed up for Veena's Gold membership, so I am going to revamp my goals a bit. I'm excited!
