My x-pole has been up for two weeks now. I let it lay in the box for a solid week before I finally felt confident enough to assemble it.
The first thing I did was set it to spinny mode and I almost threw up and was dizzy and nauseous for two days. So avoid fast spins right away! Its tempting but I learned my lesson, lol.
Since I scared myself off the pole for the first two days, I watched the beginner lessons for a couple of hours and I tried to visualize the moves.
Once I finally got on the pole, it was SO much fun! I closed the curtains and blinds, blared some music and it was such a blast that I never even tried the basic moves. Now I'm working on technique and focusing on good form but I'm also freestyling half the time and just enjoying myself.
I understand the hesitation since everyone on the forum looks so sexy/fit/acrobatic with their advanced moves. Its a ton of fun and once you start dancing and goofing off, it doesn't even feel like a workout until you're barely breathing and your hands are sweaty.
Congrats on your new pole and enjoy yourself! I love dressing up and dancing to my favorite songs.

If you ever find the spinning video, would you send me a link?
I'm only just getting started but I REALLY like the intense spins.

Thanks for the replies everyone!
I think I just became very impatient! Usually I learn very quickly when it comes to sports and exercise and so its frustrating to feel so…newbie-ish.
I really pushed myself yesterday and felt all kinds of new muscle development.
So my conclusion is: continue (patiently) building up strength and push myself to be less scared (like Sarah).
Thanks again everyone!
