    Thank you Crystabel, that article helps me to understand better. I will keep piling and exercising otherwise which will burn off this fat. Got it!!! That makes sense.

    Yes, Chem that is true.  For me it is obviously more than that weight and yeah, my body is genetically coded for large muscular arms, I guess. I like the cuts that are coming in them though.  If I can get rid of the chicken wings, then I'll be fine—I guess.  I just don't want to get new clothes or have to start getting size 10 pants and 12 tops–especially since the boobies are bigger too……(shaking my head).

    Jessilee, yes, I thought that might be the problem.  I already kickbox once a week but maybe I will add another class.  I was thinking some cardio might help….melt it away theory.

    XxMy, you are absolutely the pole stars and SV polers look great….agreed.  And you do not have giant arms…well toned, nice muscular arms yes.  Your arms look amazing.   But these things I have are giant…..:) Not beautiful….probably some of that coaching big woman psychological stuff going in my head.  However, don't get it twisted I am not going to quit poling…I love it way too much but I was hoping there was some cure for it.  It will fall into some place overtime, I am sure.  I'll just keep at it and see where it goes…….

    So Chemgoddess1, are you saying that doing the low weights is not going to make a difference at this point.  I do the SV lessons on strengthening and then I go to the sudio and do the kick butt conditioning with a wonderful instructor.  I can do a body weight lift about 4 inches off the ground now and we practice this alot, along with the tucks and climbs during the aerobic parts of the class.  And if it doesn't get the better through low weight/high rep will the fat at least burn off at some point? 🙂

    Thanks Sasha…..I like muscles too.  I just don't like the arms to be big with muscles.  I'd like small and muscular but realistically, the best I will do is medium and muscular.  I will start doing the low weights, high reps.  And if it doesn't work, then I'll have to get used to big, muscular arms, I guess.

    Also you can do planks without the pole because they help a lot too. You must also have strong abs so work on your abs.

    Hello Shanz15,

    I am doing the 30 day lessons and Studioveena has great lessons for builiding strength. I am very new also as I just started poling on December 29 but I have found that her lessons are great. The pole holds, pole squats and many others. The lessons are in order of difficulty and they really work. It is so worth the money.

    Thanks Megan, I'm sorry that question was for pawsandheels. I just wanted to know from the originator of this thread what it felt like to her.  I got confused and used the last post and not the first post….my bad.

    Thank you VV! I just have to do something to try to get some of this weight off and then I think I will need less strength to move on to the next levels.  I appreciate you sharing your triumps but I see you are killing it on the split grip.  So, you do have lots of strength now.  This is a journey and I know it.  I will keep taking it one day at a time.  I enjoy it so, so much even with the frustrations.

    Thank you all. I took today as a rest day!! My arms and legs are extremely sore. I’m resetting my mind too! Chem I did not know about the expo but I am considering it now.
