Day 9! Was finally feeling well enough to workout again!

[Veena]

Day 8! Wearing my pajamas ha! Monster always wanders in and sits by me when I stretch, he’s so silly!

[Veena]

If you use a computer for long periods of time make sure to take breaks! Try doing some of the conditioning for forearms and hands during your break from typing. End with a few stretches for the hands and forearms. 🙂

Everyones day 8’s look great! I’ll do mine when I stretch to night.

Rolling can feel like a workout in its self when just starting!! I remember thinking how tired and awkward I felt the first few times. If rolling doesn’t work right now, you can also just stop and “sit” or “rest” on any spot that feels tight, just the pressure on the knot can help release the muscle. 🙂

I’m not sure what you mean by twingy, but foam rolling shouldn’t cause any issues or damage when do properly, even when not done totally right it’s generally pretty safe. I warm up isn’t necessary but you might find it less intense on the muscles if you warm up first. I think in the descriptions or one of the lessons I mention coming up onto fists if the wrists bother you. Also be sure you are not sinking down into the shoulders when you hold the body up. You are holding your body weight so it can take time to build up stamina so keep at it. The yoga blocks are a find idea if they help but also make sure to not sink down into the shoulders while holding.

I’ve had mine on a vault and it worked great! If you look on my profile you’ll see many videos of myself using the Lil mynx on vault and other places too! https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/52d4a79b-84d8-4cc2-9480-4bc50a9aa0eb

[Veena]

Ugh, day 7. Achy, stuffy, runny nose and head hurts but I was folding and putting laundry away soooo might as well take a minute to gently do this pose…that’s the story of day 7.😋

[Veena]

Yes to everything! If you don’t want to spend too much try a tennis ball! You can use it on feet and other places!!

[Veena]

Beautiful day 7 everyone!

I have a whole section of free videos for pole dancers on Youtube…however PLEASE be cautious when learning only by youtube, because nothing is in order and many times when someone claims a move is easy or beginner its not. You can really learn terrible habits and form that is hard to break if you don’t have direction. The best way to learn to pole dance is to build up strength so you can progress without injury. The lessons here are all in order and you can contact me on any lesson with questions and I’ll help you out.

Here is my list of free videos on YT, I believe there are about 40! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLyXWQXP3dueofybLatPPuLCbvfSPF2oSF

Crossfit can be super demanding. Here’s a thread I found discussion cross fit and pole https://www.studioveena.com/forums/view/50d1fef2-a830-4ca2-bc19-05f80ac37250

Have you tried watching yourself dance? I all for “feeling” the movement but I find I personally do better when I can see my movements and have instant feed back of wow that looked great or oh that was bad, or should slow down or change this and that. Slowing down and being sexy just takes practice most of all. You could also practice moving slowly by working on the Flowmotion routine, I’m not a fast mover but it’s challenging for even me to move sloooowly though the stretches.

There are at least 30 combos that don’t require any inverts in the lessons here. 🙂 https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view_category/routines-pole-lessons
