    The lessons here offer a variety of method including foam roller and I’ll be adding a new Abs and Legs routine that will strengthen AND lengthen the muscles! We’re having a sale by the way…. 🙂

    Day 19! We went hiking with the family, doggie too, and we stopped to play in the woods!

    The barn background is beautiful, I love barns, having grown up on a farm and all 💜

    I don’t clean or do ANYTHING until after I practice. If I start with cleaning or work it doesn’t happen. 🙂

    As someone who has worked from home and had to find time to workout for years now, I’d say the biggest help for me is having a scheduled time! For me it HAS to be morning, if I don’t do my pole session or workout in the AM soon after breakfast I just don’t get around to it.

    Some thing else to try. Use the 30 day take off as a guideline to structure your workouts. You can simply replace easier, beginner work with more advanced work. Also try using many of the routines here to get your practice started, then write down a short list of moves you want to work on for that session. Follow it with a stretch.

    Also, try starting a thread here with some of the girls to help keep you accountable! Really the biggest issue for me is getting my practice in during the morning…and I am NOT a morning person. lol

    October 18, 2014 at 4:27 pm in reply to: What are your favorite shoulder stretches?

    Something I always do whenever I do anything, be it, weight training or heavy poling is to stretch out between strength work. For example if I’m doing strength training for shoulders I immediately follow the strength move with a stretch for that same muscle group. I find it’s most important for shoulders and legs. 🙂

    I found I was putting my arms too far through, I keep it just around my elbows and then really contracted my whole body. If it didn’t tighten everything I always fell face first. lol I also gently lifted up on my legs with my hooked arms to anchor myself.

    I was wondering how you’ve been doing! I’m not good at remembering songs off the top of my head but I agree, I like Titanium.

    Nothing is wrong with you 🙂 try working on only Step 1 (upper body) for a while. When stepping and gripping into the armpit feels good. Then work on Step 2. I’m sure others may have suggestions too!

    I should add, I’m not rolling it the whole time, I roll first then, just laying over it and relaxing into the stretch it gives. 🙂

    I like to lay over my foam roller, moving it up and down my spine.

    Also, I’ve got a few new upper back and shoulder stretching on the way!
