Would you guys like me to start a new discussion so you can view the newest clips on IG of what I’ve just posted? You already see new lessons in the daily update, but I thought it might be nice to have a running thread recently posted QL. This way I can keep the lessons in order according to difficulty and if it’s pole, floor, chair etc, on the lessons page, yet from the thread you can look to see what is most recent. Does that make sense? Would that be helpful?

Any type of repetitive motion that’s done and not followed with stretching can make you tight. So running can actually be a great way to warm up for flexibility training, as long as you stretch or do flexibility training after running, lifting weight, horse back riding, biking. You will not hinder progress BUT you have to be diligent with it or it can tighten you up.
The science on Relaxin and knee injury in women is out there, but there’s not a definitive answer as to if it truly is an issue. I side on the better safe than sorry end of it.

DO NOT USE A CHAIR!!!!
If you are doing a Split or True grip Half or Full Cartwheel mount using a chair is NOT safe. The videos where you see a chair “helping” them are where they are using a TWISTED GRIP. I don’t use the Twisted grip in my Cartwheel mounts so if you are hoping to achieve the same results it won’t happen because a Mount with a twisted grip and mount with Split, or True grip does not use the same technique! 🙂
There are different techniques for Cartwheel mount, Handspring mount and Twisted grip mount. Everyone uses the names interchangeably and it causes confusion :/ ……Handspring mount and Twisted grip mount are the closest to the same. Cartwheel you’re headed in a totally opposite direction.
This video (it’s sooooooo old) shows a FULL CARTWHEEL, CARTWHEEL MOUNT and HANDSPRING MOUNT so you can see the difference. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sag8kwfYBmU
Check out the lessons for proper hand placement. 🙂

@Allyson, Don’t use weights until you’ve been stretching constantly for a few months. If you use weights your technique should be spot on and you need to be very warm and know your body well.
@Phoenix, how hot is your bath? I make mine so hot I can hardly stand it, by the time 5-10 minutes go by I’m literally sweating. Hot tub stretching is also amazing, but it has to be hot not comfortable to where you could sit for more than 20 mins. I mean HOT. lol
I have something I’ve been working on and I’m hoping to finish soon, I think you will all love it. 🙂

We do tend to be more flexible around our period, this is why we need to be cautious of knee injury during that time as well. ðŸ‘

Polekat is correct about flexibility training before heavy workouts 😊

Mishakitty, do you go to a studio in town at all? The lessons can be viewed on most smart phones and tablets, so you could watch them there if home doesn’t work for you.

This will help you build strength and learn the muscle memory nessisary for inverts and othe more advanced pole work.

Poleisnewtome….there are TONS of non pole lessons here. Some of the best things you can do at home are conditioning, none of these lessons require a pole. I’ve also got a bunch of Flexibility lessons, and routines along with a few other full length routines that do not require a pole.

Yes, it looks great! If you find you need more rest in between, try doing splits training on the same day as lower body. 🙂

This thread came to mind and I wanted to update everyone. For those who were craving content we have added a new section call QUICK LESSONS. I’ve been added to them almost everyday, and sometimes up to 2 new lessons a day! These lessons include, tons of combos, workout tips and I’ve already added spinning pole, Advanced and Elite pole work. I’ll be added Chair and other fun things to these lessons as well. Here’s a link to an example of one of the new quick lessons. https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/548db28d-2b84-4941-b388-27ed0a9aa0eb 🙂

As you learn to engage your core more the back will flatten out. Being aware of it is great, many times a person doesn’t notice. ðŸ‘
