Simple solution:
When/if you get it peirced then request the first jewelry to be a short barbell. I was playing full contact ice hockey and doing martial arts when I got mine peirced and I never had any problems. You can still move it like you would a ring to teach the skin there is a hole there now and it cleans just as easy.I had a custom made clear plastic barbell that was like just a smidge over the length of the actual peircing site and had a flat top and a rubber band instead of a ball to screw on made for me for the time I went to army basic training. Obstacle courses and all kinds of torture…not only did it not catch but even the drill sgts could see it

If you spend time on hold then try a static contraction of your abs. Contract like your in the up phase of a sit up but the trick is to find the kind you can do while still breathing (normally!). Time yourself how long you can hold it for and try to beat it in like an hour or so.
Also calf raises while at the copy machine are pretty common place now…
If kneww extensions get too easy and you can knock out like 100 of them in a row then find yourself an inexpensive latex workout band. Create a loop for your foot and have it sit about your ankle while the other end is teathered to a main support of your chair. The band should create some resistance and actually make your muscles fire in order to extend your leg out in front of you. Start with very light tension and gradually shorten the band to make it more difficult. Also remember to switch legs lol!
Keagles aren’t exactly weightlifting but can amuse you for a while without anyone noticing loL!

congrats!
Ive noticed a lot of the site members have consideribly better posture in thier later pix and videos compared to thier first "dont laugh I have no idea what I’m doing" posts. Might be a little bit of that self confident swagger going on there too lol!

Ouchies!
My degree is in sports med and I do a TON of rehab work for athletes coming in and out of casts or crutches. Hit me up if your looking for way to modify/adapt a work out although I have like no pole experience

Honestly….POWER TO YOU GIRLFRIEND!
I had an "i hate everything" post because not only did I buy a peekaboo (I was uneducated, forgive my sins lol!) but while my man was out in the field I was tried and found completely INCAPABLE of installing my own.
You’ve got it up, down, maintenance and then working on up again. Yeesh, you have kicked my sorry butt all over the hardware store babe!
Power to the polers!

Thats so awesome! Im super proud of all the girls who just waltz right on past the stigma and also also who come outside thier comfort zone.
If you decide this is something you want to do on a more regular basis then please please please ask and shop around before buying a pole. Biggest mistake I’ve made so far and one Im seeing lots of other girls do too.

Welcome!
For creaking joints try adding a daily vitamin (brand doesn’t matter) and possibly a joint compex suppliment (this is where no namers are going to fall short). Also avoid buying a Peek-a-Boo pole. Then you could end up with cracking joints and a sore jaw from grinding your teeth the way I have been with mine.
Welcome!!

Don’t forget to give yourself credit. This stuff is hard! Wow, I had a reality check last night!!
Just like with dance, gymnastic or anything else the visual feedback is important. What I would do when I was figure skating was to tape myself before I was too terribly comfortible with my new move, a couple repetitions and then throw it on my laptop, password protect the video clip and then LEAVE IT ALONE!Come back the next practice session and check it out while warming up. Pick specific things to look for: "I’m going to evaluate my hand placement without making any judgements about myself as a person" (chant if need be)
I had to do a lot of mental/coaching work in my medical area so I’ve got the subject matter down but not the technique….

OMG yes it is a peekabo and I already regret it!
I guess I had assumed the dvd inside would have some moves on it not just another, louder, and equally as unclear version of how to get frustrated…I mean install the damn thing. UGH!!!!
-
it just clips into place. I thought it looked like a good idea but another one in the box almost fell on my head while I was looking at the display one. Yeah, near death….lol!
My bf actually suggested those tap lights that run on batteries that look like little hockey pucks. You could use TickTach to set em up there far enough out you wont kick them…just a thought

if this is something you are truely looking into here are some very medical centered things to keep in mind:
CONSULT THE CRAP OUT OF YOUR SURGEON!!
HE is interveiwing for the right to work on your hot little bod, not the other way around. If he claims he’s certified byt medical board XYZ…go to thier website and you can check or find the number to call and check him. Your body is a temple…dont let the highschool janitor work on it.KNOW WHAT YOU ARE GETTING INTO!
If at any point during your multiple pre surgery visits he or she starts using some medical jargon you dont know…SPEAK UP! Smile and nod are the most dangerous things you can do in a doctors office.SET LIMITS!
Set price limits, time limits, personal boundries. I looked into a breast agmentation when I was younger and dumber but I would NOT get over the idea of a surgeon going in via armpit or navel so I ended up calling it off (which was good that I was stubborn because I was being stupid)POST SURGERY—HAVE A PLAN!
Do not expect to be up and moving around when you get home. You will be groggy, drugged up and not exactly feeling a million bucks. As much as you want your family around you when you feel yucky….recovery days are PERFECT times for the kiddos to go visit grandma. It is totally unrealistic to thing you are going to provide care for anyone other than your damn self when you feel like frankenstein.I havent’ been under the knife myself but I do many surgical and post surge rotations so if there is anything medical I can help with let me know!

Your mate, your house, your kids, your rules or YOURE (meaning your sister) GONE!
WHy have something in the house that kids arent allowed to play with?! Thats like those living rooms you feel uncortable just walking through. Heaven forbid your kids have a happy environment in the courtesy of your house where they can play!
If its going to be in the house it had better not be off limits. Just unrealistic for people with kids.
Don’t know your family so I’m not touching any of the issues behind your sister’s retarded worldveiw.

Our agreement is that if I drop myself on my head I had better be able to yell loud enough to get his attention. Was wondering if anyone else wasn’t feeling super sexxxy being watched during practice.
Yup, they are pretty simple. They can be morons but remember…they are our morons

congratulations! I guess I should stop lurking too…glad I’ve found an instructional site that is very classy. Googling for pole dancing lessons was…interesting. Glad you’re here
