if you go through other threads you will see I am dying ot try an amatuer night not naked but just for fun just once had my chance years ago to work at a club just wasnt comfortabl w the idea i would love to try it but not sure if i could do it for a living ok as a kid (before i could ewen talk) i was obssesed w flowers i was always poitning at them and when got older was always in trouble for picking flowers out of yards than when i was 13 and started high school i took up floriculture (arranging flowers ect) as my major ( yes we had majors at my high school it was an agriculture school w/animals canoeing, cross country running thu woods ect just an amazing place) than when i was 17 i got a job in a florist shop/greenhouse as soon as i was working with flowers bc i had to i stopped enjoying it i think thats how it would be w the pole for me i told sascha we’re going to have to take a road trip to find an amatuer night somehwere https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif

I dont and never have waxed although i am open to ther idea i have heard sugar wax kits hurt less as they stick less to th skin and target the hair more there are hair removal creams (bad smell, but no pain and no hair for 4-7 days) shavin is quick and easy just be sure to use atleast a 3 blade razor and i personally find shave gel much better than cream

remeber to to go at your own pace better to learn safe and slow than rush to try the next thing i learned to invert from a squatting position on the side of the pole rather than standing so if fell not far to go i learned the thigh hold relese ( sitting on the pole and using just your inner thighs to grip the pole as you "fall back" w no hands ) by sitting on the pole w no hands and getting really comfortable with that before started leaning back def. use big cusions or pillows make sure your skin (not just hands) and pole are clean & dry i have never had a spotter for anything and there aren’t classes around here if you use precautions and dont try to advance too fast I think you will be ok just remember saftey first if there is a specific move your trying for I’m sure myself or someone else could give you advice for trying it w/o a spotter although if you can get a friend to spot you that would be best of all I don;t really have anyone to pole w my bf’s friends seem to be more into it than mine maybe bc there guys and they are use to swinging and jumping on things from when they were kids the girls try and get so frustrated when they cant immediatly get something and give up well good luck and let us know if you need help w anything https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif

thanks! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif wasn’t sure this topic would take, but it’s nice to see people using it to discuss diffrent issues https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif I am sooo looking foward to getting on pole in little bit as have the day off have been doing pretty good with the diet/exersise ( or play as i like to think about it i usually keep it fun so it doesn’t feel like working out dance, wii, walks w/dog ect) am actually excited to get back on scale mon ( i weigh self 2x week) and since one person was brave enough to lead the revolution of weight admission i’ll go next last i checked was 158 not happy bc i had been 153 goal originally was 145 now is 140 as it’s a better weight for my height (5’7) it actually kind of feels freeing to just say ya this is how much i weigh and?.. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/alien.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/bom.gif
so basically would like to lose 18lbs total
tone/tighten lower belly, inner thighs, and butt ( i call it the "gravity zone")
be able to do 10 regular push ups ( can do 25 on knees, but would like to do 10 reg. to help build strength)
limit sat. fat/tans fat and refined sugar (white bread/rice/ect)
acheive full splits and straddle (have been stretching, but not warming enough to really work range of motion)Ithink it’s great that we’re getting comfortable enough w/each other to really be open with things https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

again thank you so much i find little tips like that very helpful i am actually just learning to use elbow grip (have been able to catipilar for awhile, but just learned reverse climb using elbow grip ) i feel fairly secure with grip but am going to try pointing elbow up like you said to see if that feels more secure https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_elephant.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_spiderman.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_safesex.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_fish.gif (just felt like using these poor guys that always get ignored https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cat.gif )

ya thats what i thought this morning better break it down to a smaller number so dont lose heart I frustrate myself bc I keep getting thisclose to my goal and than its like i sabotage my efforts https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif well i did my kickboxing video last night and did 48 lunges this morning ( 2 sets of 12 on each leg) https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif anyone have any tushy toners? I hear squats and lunges but unless i am doing something wrong ( i know not to have knees going past toes as strains knees, keep my back straight, put weight in back of heels ect) i always feel it in my thighs (which is great as am also trying to tone upper thighs) not my butt i am looking for results so any exersise anyone could recommend to tone & lift https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif would be great thanks! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif
i think when your trying to lose weight it is also important to reward yourself regardless of what the scale says
if you planned 4-5 workouts and completed them I dont think you should punish or deny yourself a (non-food) reward such as a new lipstick, a good book, maybe even a new piece of workout gear ( a new cute sports top or a new workout dvd) it can be frustrating when you let the numbers run your life also when i want say BK, and i say no that food is "bad" https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_twisted.gif i end up eating all sorts of other "healthy things" and eventually give in to my craving anyway so have just added tons of calories i have learned if i want BK its better to have a kids meal with a diet soda than to deny myself til i either go nuts and end up w/a shake and lg fries https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_porc.gif or eating an apple, string cheese, crackers ect and finding myself at the drive through an hr later https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheese.gif just had this convo w/friend this afternoon was talking about how its better to have a small portion of the "real" stuff say 1 or 2 real oreos than to have 10 low-fat (usually means high sugar) cookies that tatse like cardboard and dont satisfy meno matter what I am proud of my body and love it reagardless of what some lit up numbers say on a scale i just want to be healthy, strong, and feel good about the way my body feels https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
