I am having this problem in both hips within the last week and it only started after working out for about 6 months. I hope that it is sign of something getting stronger and that I need to strengthen the opposite muscle. 🙁

I don't think she was doing the basic fan kick though because they kept calling it the cradle fan kick. Nevertheless, it was interesting to watch her struggle in attempt to do it. There is so much strength required with pole that if it does emphasize anything else, it does emphasize strength and weaknesses. That is what I love about this particular sport–sexy and strong=beautiful!

But, Charley I think you are right we can't expect to see what we know as pole on network tv anytime soon. It did look hard and impressive to the general public and the fact that he said he wanted to showcase her strength by using the pole was great!!

I think the best thing this performance did was to help to see pole fitness as a form of dance and as a form of fitness.

After I watched it again, I get the climb is not the best display but I love the syncronization and we do have to consider that there was dancing before and after. I did like the performance.
Charley which transitions are you referring to? And Chemgoddess1, you are right. The training poles were x-poles. And the media sucks!!
I thought that Wynona's display on the pole did more damage than good quite honestly. I was not impressed not because of lack of skill but the genre of display. Just my humble opinion, of course.

She did a pole climb, some sort of spread v, a descend and a few fan kicks with some great dancing. However, I have to admit I was expecting more from the pole display….but I that must simply mean that you ladies set a very high standard with all the tricks and inverts that I see on here.

I wear size 9 regularly but had to get a size 10. The 10's are even a little snug. I'd suggest one size higher.

Veena's lessons are awesome. I take a pole conditioning class at a studio every Sunday and Tuesday with a very touch instructor. Yet Veena's conditioning still kicks my butt. This says a lot about her expectations and understanding of the body mechanics. The 30 day challenge is by far the way to go and can be done in conjunction with other exercises, especially straight cardio,.
