Vangle have you tied working through the invert program in the lessons here? It will help you build strength 💪💪💪

I think your best bet is just to post about it here and hope someone has either an old xpole they are selling you can take pieces from or has some spare pieces. I hope you find something!!!!

Beforever you invest more money on a new pole try using a combo of anduring mighty grip! I’ve got cold legs and don’t sweat much and this mix allows me to use any finish even when the pole is cold! Here’s a video I made https://youtu.be/jgvvc2uvcFw

I would contact xpole! Hopefully they can help put resolve the issue💜

I do, here’s why, a fundamental move is a building block to understanding and building strength for more advanced moves. Just because I label a move fundamental doesn’t mean you HAVE to learn it. There’s really no move you have to learn….in fact the most important concept for pole is understanding scapula placement and conditioning the body for moves you might learn. After that point, it’s about learning each move with correct techniques in mind. I hope that makes sense.😆

First remember that pole should be fun, unless you’re making a living off of competitive pole then no need to stress about what level you’re at with pole tricks. However, if you wanted to do the flexy program I think most days you’d have time to start with some pole work first, then finish with the suggested lessons in the flexy program.
It’s good to keep suggest rest days in programs, but you can do is read ahead in the program and see what days are full rest and what are active. Then you can plan what days you’ll pole on as well. On active rest you can do things like floor works, transitions, work on making existing “easy for you to do” moves pretty. Rest days just aren’t the days to begin working on new strenuous moves. Let me know if you have any other questions. 🙂

Yay!!!!!! Yep looks like brass that needs a cleaning…..that reminds me, mine is looking pretty sad! lol

Have you tried any of the program here? They’re all well rounded as far as flexibility and strength building. Also, if you really wanted to focus on one, I’d say try the 30 days to flexy program, even though it’s a program to increase flexibility you’ll be working on strength too. You need both strength and flexibility to help reduce your risk of injury so for me training strength and flexibility go hand in hand.
If you don’t want to try a program, train what you like and then make sure to take a time at the end of each session to stretch. Just adding in a few minutes of stretching to remind worked muscle how to relax can be helpful. Keep in mind that there are several routines that focus on flexibility or strength so you can mix up what you want to focus on, they’re all under 45 mins long!

I use brasso and then finish with steaming, otherwise the brasso seems to make it slick. Steaming gets read of the slick from cleaning. I steam more than using brasso as I only use that once or twice a year.

Look like brass. My hands never smell after anything goes but brass
-
Yeah, sounds like brass to me! My TG never has any thing other than grip aid residue come off, but my brass gets dirty!

If you were sedentary for the 4 days start over, if you were active then you can try picking up where you left off. I have the program designed to not make you super sore when starting out so if you start at day 10 after being away you might find more muscle soreness..not a big deal just something to consider. 🙂
I’m glad you’re feeling better!!

Training for flexibility before warming up fully isn’t a good idea, and does increase your risk of injury. You NEED blood flow to help increase the elasticity of the muscle. The key is blood flow to the muscle. Remember, gentle stretching is fine but actual training to GAIN should be done when fully warm.
I talk about cold flexibility in the 30 days to flexy program, so if you’re using that and haven’t come across it in the program it’s coming. 🙂 I don’t know what day I talk about it tho!! Basically I say….Cold flexibility can take YEARS to improve, or only weeks. It all comes down to if you’ve trained flexibility before, genetics, and how consistent you are with training. Improving cold flexibility takes time! You will always be more flexible when warm. Increasing your strength will also help with over all mobility too!
PS: I’ve read about studies where they’ve use ICE on muscles before stretching and that also works….it works because it does increase BLOOD FLOW to large muscle groups, they used it on LARGE muscles not small, because while the surface of the muscle was very cold, it created warmth/increased blood flow, deep inside and there for increase ROM. Cool huh? I plan on doing a FB live on this subject at some point…it’s on my ever growing list!
If you have more questions on flexibility try using the program if you haven’t already, even just listening to all of the main days will give you some good tips for your training programs!

Wow those are small, we use bigger ones for sure. If they fell out you should totally make sure you are on a stud when you install again. A hardware store should be able to help you find a better screw.
