She’s projecting her own journey onto those around her.
The best way to keep it friendly is to honor each other as individuals.
Don’t make the other person wrong so you can be right.
Live and let live.
Breathe and revel in our humanity.
Peace. Love. Pole. -
This is fantastic! Thanks for sharing it. I am a HUGE fan and practitioner of trigger point therapy. Direct pressure on muscle knots (trigger points) sometimes result in a miraculous “reboot” of the muscle and you feel like the muscle was never ‘injured.’ Other times it takes a few days of direct pressure on the knots for them to give up their contraction. Then there are times that direct pressure doesn’t seem to do enough or fast enough.
Self- treatment by trigger points is a worthy pursuit. It’s saved me from being all stove up many times over the years. Go forth and press on thyself.

Posterior tibialis is not as deep and inaccessible as you might think. It is possible to work it with massage therapy.

For “sickled foot” I wonder how effective massage treatment of the posterior tibialis coupled with strengthening of the peroneals would be? Anyone ever try it?

ROLFING is a form of bodywork and named after its creator, and one if my bodywork heros, Ida P. Rolf (Google it.)
Rolfing is wonderful for increasing range of motion, freeing up fascial restriction caused by trauma and / or chronic postures.

I’m about a month-and-a-half in, too, MPole! 🙂
I started by going to group lessons and very quickly discovered that they were way over my head. I’ve been an exerciser most of my life, but the pole makes me look and feel like I’ve never exercised a day in my life!I don’t know if I would have made it this far without discovering Veena’s lessons. They are totally worth the investment. Save up for them if you have to. I imagine that with your own pole (I wish I had one of my own) Veena’s lessons and their systematic approach you’ll be we’ll on your way.
Cheers! 🙂

I kept waiting to see your moves. 🙂

I’m a massage therapist, too. I simply use alcohol on towel for my hands – so far, so good.

gilt1414, that sounds like a good plan – 30min a day, 4-5 days a week. I’m gonna copy you. 🙂

Right now I can barely do a pole hold (as demonstrated in Veena’s lessons). I can make it up the pole for one climb and that’s about it. Now that I’ve got the subscapularis and triceps trigger points settled down from my first fervent week of classes, I can put in place the conditioning exercises Veena offers. My pole studio doesn’t even talk about conditioning. It’s like being thrown in the river to learn how to swim!

I’m curious as all get out to see how long it’s going to take me to “get it.”
Wow, WebJunk, there are a ton of post in that over-40 thread you suggested. Thanks for pointing it out! 🙂 -
Well, alrighty then. I’m 46 and I can’t see any reason why I can’t be upside down and in booty shorts, too! I’ve never been so excited to be in an over-40-club. 🙂
