    April 20, 2010 at 6:29 pm in reply to: Abnormal Pap

    Even if in 6mths it does come back abnormal..Don’t worry..I had pre cervical cancer from when i found out i was pregnant with my youngest (who will be 5 in September) Until about a year ago. I went through colposcopys (where they cut a chunk out of your cervix) a bazillon paps ..and finally a leep (where they take a electric loop and cut off all the bad cells) The Leep finally got it and i’ve had great paps since then.. Even abnormal cells on a pap most of the time aren’t anything to worry about..there are only 2 strands to be a little concerned and since they caught this early even if it is that (which its most likely not) They caught it early enough! So RELAX please..stress does no good on the body https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

    Okay, I am seriously impressed, and a little intimidated LOL

    I watched your clips from your first and third day, and your already doing cool stuff, and awfully flexible too!

    Did you do a dance studio class before hand, or is this literally like – I got a pole and on day one this is what I can do?

    Please dont be intimidated, I edited the crap out of those lol. Had a LOT of soreness the first day. I was in gymnastics, cheer ect growing up. but that was 10 years or so ago..The only other thing i’ve done since i’ve had my kids was coach competitive cheerleading and hip hop for little girls. Im out of shape trust me, i get really tired really fast..its going to build up over time..and you have to tell yourself that.. The difference in my stamina was dramatically different between the two days..the first day i didn’t know what to expect, the 2nd day was a little easier, and the 3rd was a little easier..just like with anything it takes time to build yourself into. Im a smoker unfortently..been trying to stop forever now..but we know how that is. You can do it as long as you are determined, which seems you are!

    I have no usefull advice here, but i also have a week old xpert..From what i can tell, they are moody poles lol. I had a similar thing happen this morning that basically made me stop my work out 15 mins in..i could do spins fine, but it seemed to get super slippery when i tried to sit and no matter what i did (windex, warming it up more ect) i could not get a good grip https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif

    April 13, 2010 at 12:46 am in reply to: Conflicted on Which Pole!

    My honest advice, get the xpert..it "said" have two ppl..but hubby was sleeping when i got mine and i put it up by myself with no problems and its SUPER stable.. Im short as well (5’2) so its not like i was tall to help myself there lol. It is easy to take up and down..with what you are describing you need, i definetly would go with the xpert.. Hope i helped https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

    April 12, 2010 at 10:41 pm in reply to: The official splits progress thread

    So, when doing splits (or at least trying to do the splits) should our front foot be flexed or pointed? Just wondering if there is a set way to do it or if it’s just a preference either way?

    April 12, 2010 at 2:39 am in reply to: I need help with flexibility

    For the splits, what i do..and what i have my girls i coach (little girls cheer ect) is to hold your splits as far as you can get down..and each time after try and go a little farther and a little longer..it takes some time but you will definetly get there!

    For the flexibility part..Personally i use my pole. If you can do a good elbow stand, thats a great way to start. Just lower your legs having the pole hold your bottom up and try and stretch those muscles with your feet going to your head.. Im sure others have some more wonderfull tips for this as well!

    April 7, 2010 at 3:37 pm in reply to: Upper Body Strength

    i got the 60 day lessons this morning and im enjoying them https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif My wrists are pretty good from always working them out in cheer (i coach) but they still need some more strength. I practiced and practiced my pole sit down this morning (i know i shouldn’t have but it was driving me nuts tempting me sitting next to me in my living room) legs don’t hurt so much today..but got my plank for a few seconds..I was proud of that..but off to rest till friday when my youngest goes back to preschool and the older two are in school. They hog my pole when they are home lol. But anywho.. thank you guys for your imput..and thanks for making the lesson video’s https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
