Merry Chrismas to you!

Hi and welcome!! The lessons here would be a great start, I have everything placed in order for you so there’s no guessing as to what to work on next! They allow you to build strength first helping prevent injury.
My tips would be work on strength building moves first, then move onto spins. Don’t practice everyday as a beginner. Always stretch your forearms and hands after you pole. This video has tips too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSYHrZjzSnU&list=PLyXWQXP3dueofybLatPPuLCbvfSPF2oSF&index=21

Was it the new brass or older mat finish brass? Also were you warmed up, with any pole you’ll find the best grip when you are very warm. The most consistent finish for me is the SV pole. Something else you could try is using Dew point and mighty grip together. It works best on PC and Brass, chrome still gets slick after a bit, but the grip aids together do make the chrome pole more useable! I haven’t gotten out my Stainless steel pole to try it but I bet it would work great on it too!

I love you’re house Saphyre and great splits too!
Jane ette, don’t be too discouraged, splits are not everything. The 6 weeks to splits is simply not possible for many people, flexibility takes time. We all have very different bodies and need to listen to them. Try to focus on the strengths you do have instead. 🙂

Issues with tg*
-
I really liked tg. However I now have a brass x-pole and love it!! I had issues with during the Vegas summers due to sweat, but brass is better (not perfect) but better when sweaty. This new brass is great! So it’s something to think about.

Hey leyrose, you shouldn’t need to add ankle weights. In fact your could stress your hip flexors by adding extra weight during the routine. The goal with the lower body conditioning is gaining control and also strengthen and lengthen, it’s not to bulk up the leg muscles. 🙂
-
Hmm, the screws shouldn’t be sticking out at all. Have you tried trouble shooting by contacting x- pole?
-
Congratulations!!!! You’ll bounce back. 🙂 I would highly recommend doing the 30 day Take off Program here. Its included with the purchase of the lessons and gives you 30 days of training. One of the best things for you would be that each day doesn’t take much time so you can get your workouts in and be done, while still gaining strength! This program focus’s on everything you need to get back into pole again. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4KzMIIbZH0

Have you tried working on the combos/routines in the lessons here? They should you how to link moves and give you ideas for changing up moves you know.

The noise you hear inside the lil mynx is the inner pole. They all have that sound and it’s not anything that would in anyway make the pole unstable. 🙂

The new x-pole brass is wonderful!

You are very welcome! xoxo

Here’s a good example of cross training with the hoop! These tricks would strengthen the hands, wrists, forearms, and even shoulders!

Pain like this is commonly an intercostal, rhomboid, or muscles of the scapula.
Prevent it by warming up of course but most of all invert with control! A swing of the leg is fine as long as the upper body is placed correctly along the pole. This is how you hold the scapula correctly and perform a proper invert without jerking your upper body. Placement, using a Side Pole Hold, is so important when inverting, use the arm pit and save your back! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJ3V_2DsxgE

The SV pole has a special process done to it that gives it a “softer” feel, than regular powder coating. It’s still grippy with out the harshness of some PC poles. That’s the best way I can describe it. 🙂
-
Hula hooping is actually good training too! When I hoop off the body, on legs, arms, wrists it strengthens those areas. It’s been great for my shoulders and wrists. When I hoop on my body is great cardio!

I made a video with some tips that work for me. I suggest starting with a clean pole, I use stream to clean my poles. https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/52ab9aba-a310-41ab-83d6-636d0a9aa0eb
