This is part of the journey. When first starting, we all have a tendency to over grip. However, calluses are a normal part of poling and will exist whether or not you over grip.. If they are achy, try soaking them in Epsom salts. This will soften them up. Use a nice, emollient moisturizer afterwards. I have been poling for 2 years and my calluses are toughened up. On occasion, they will tear during a practice and I just put some neosporin on them to prevent bacteria from invading.

I hope you get some responses to this. I know that a few Veeners posted clips using their GoPro. My husband has one that he uses for his Motorcycle track days, but I haven’t used it yet. One of these days I will have to try it. Have fun!

Haha! Thanks, grayeyes!

lol, Veena!!!

Thanks everyone…KSLICE, yes that is me! CHEM, I know, right? What a stupid thing to ask. PDR- I love you!! AMILOO He did respond. Basically he said, “I figured as much”. He was really jealous when I started dating my husband and he just went through his second divorce. Maybe he was checking to see if I was bored yet, lol. I have post what another poler added to the thread. I don’t think she is a SV member, but this was great:
“Ummmm. Jeff,……susans husband is incredibly proud of his wifes accomplishments and quite frankly so are all of us.. so back the fuck off and keep your closed minded opinions to yourself!!!
Thanks and happy new year..
… oh yeah.. and if you have nothing good to say, shut up or unfriend her!” -
Happiest of Anniversaries to you!!!!

I really like nymphdancer’s goal. Sure, there are a few things I would like to have (deadlift Shoulder Mount), but I just hope to continue poling as long as my body will let me!

I just read every single word of this Charley! I was seriously laughing out loud, but it is all so true! I think sanitary is the key word here. Even when I wear my tiny VS boy shorts, you can be guaranteed I am wearing a thong underneath! The only exception was my professional photo shoot. I cleaned the pole myself when I was finished. Thanks for sharing! – Susan

There’s always Brazilian waxing! I remember visiting a totally nude strip club about 10 years ago and I asked the dancer how she got her muff so perfectly clean, without any razor bumps. She told me she shaves using baby oil, washed thoroughly with soap and water and then dried. She then applied deodorant! I do this every so often and it works pretty well. I do use my Salicylic Acid cleanser there, nowadays. It really does work. If you’ve never used it in that area before, use it sparingly at first. It can cause irritation until you get used to it. Use a nice, gentle moisturizer or Arnica Gel after.

I own the SV pole and a Chrome X-Pole. I also have sweaty hands, but I use a clinical strength deodorant on them at night. It helps a lot! Anyway, what I absolutely love about the SV pole is that I do not have to use a grip aid. Not on my hands or my body (I use grip aid with my chrome). I specifically purchased it for the humid summer months and it was money well spent. The only thing I found is that if I poled for more than about 2 hours, I started to get too sticky, lol. That didn’t bother me one bit. My pole is in a room above my garage (brr), so in the winter I use my chrome. I saw my SV pole peeking out from the head of my bed last night, and I said, “Hello! I miss you!” Hope this helps!

I’m also in the “Older Poler” category at age 49. I started to pole at age 47 so I wasn’t sure what to expect. 2 years later I am in the best shape of my life. I remember a physician telling me that it is not practical to expect my body to ever look or act like it did in my 20’s. While my skin tone cannot be reversed, my muscle tone is fabulous. Way better than in my 20’s! I used to be quite a gym rat, but I could never get my arms, abs, or legs to get any definition. I think it was probably because I didn’t push myself hard enough. With pole, you are pushing beyond limits you ever thought possible. The best news is that you don’t always feel like you are because it is so much fun!!! Pole has easily been the most incredible way to get in shape. Hands down.

So far so good and I’ve been using it for about 8 months now.

Makasha, I use Clinical Strength deodorant (works the same as Dri-clor). I put it on my hands at night, before getting into bed. In the morning, I wash my hands with soap and water which eliminates any reside that can stain clothing or discolor metal.

Ah! Thank you for that icon trick!! I was just trying to figure out how to do that, yesterday!

Here is a vid of a move from SM I learned in an Aerial Amy workshop. It’s super fun!
