Depends on what you feel smooth is….If you mean it catches and stop then starts again, or makes clunking noise, then you could call xpole so they can trouble shoot with you. If you had over tightened it before it may not spin nicely again. If the pole doesn't spin as long as you think it should, it could just be a matter of technique.

If its a slight bow there's nothing to worry about. If it's brand new and really bowed then you need to contact whatever company you bought the pole from. Like everything we buy, there are bound to be duds in the bunch.

if your xpole is bowing, then you've more than likely over tightened it!! I have many xpoles and have not had any horrible bowing or warping on any of them. There was some slight warping on my TG when I had the pole extended to over 14ft ….and at that height, it's to be expected. The pole was and is still very much useable. It's up in my pole room now along with my 40 https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

I'm just seeing your question now pegasusaerialfitness….I'm sure pole diameter and leg length along with bone structure all determine how painful a Scorpio, and other moves are. I personally don't feel pain on the lower leg in Scorpio. I would think the "in between" position might hurt the most, meaning not quite a long but not quite short Scorpio. I REALLY bend the knee when I do a short Scorpio, almost as if to do a thigh hold.

I love heavy metal and rock, Octane is one of my top xm channels I listen to along with BPM!! I'm really liking Halestorm right now.
I use to play guitar and bass guitar.https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rambo.gif Webmaster and I had a little band back when we were first married. LOL Lately I have been thinking I'd like to start playing again, now that we have a home where we can keep them out!

I have the ceiling mount and love it! I would say too that the top was maybe not in all the way, it can take some jiggling to get the top all the way in. I know it's in place when I here a thud.
-
nyte rayn, its always a good idea to re-tighten and check your pole before every use. If your ceiling cracked, the pole was more than likely not put up along the joist properly or it was over tightened. The pole should still be find, but I would still check it out. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Hi! There's a lot more to inverting then just abdominal strength. Good technique and adequate conditioning is important. Inverting isn't something that should be done by a certain time period, but worked on slowly. If you have a pole to practice on at home, the lessons here include conditioning and strengthening exercises along with pole moves that help you progress towards inverts. All lessons are place in order so you don't have to try and guess what to work on next. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Hi journey2me, It will vary, from person to person. The more consistent you are with your workouts the faster you'll see progress. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Yep, your body need potassium, calcium can help prevent cramps as well. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

Great advice everyone! @ rdgcleveland, you'll get there with time. As suggested, work on technique also try drinking plenty of water and try eatting some bananas to help prevent cramps.https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

This is an encouraging place, and we all love to see how a poler grows. The others are right, we are our worst critics! Please don't feel you need to only post perfection https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_heart1.gif
Take a look at some of my videos, you'll see quite a few of them are attempts at things, and they are not all perfect. In fact, there are very few of my videos I like!! lol We see every little flaw in ourselves, but others might just be inspired by you. Someone who is a beginner and posts a video will inspire other new dancers and so on.
Here's a funny vid of me hooping https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/4f4e6991-dc00-42a7-b244-44c20ac37250It's all about sharing and growing here, not nit picking and mindless insults like youtube and facebook.
this is one where I'm just messing around with new things and trying handstands. https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/4e8076f8-4790-4cc1-9f59-63b80ac37250
Hope to see a video from you soon https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

I do have exercises and stretches for all the muscle groups Keex listed 🙂 Take a look at the lesson discriptions to learn what muscle groups are the focus.

Its a normal fear! The girls have some great advice for you.
Telling yourself it can be done and you will do it, is huge when it comes to learning new things. Pole is mentally challenging as well as physically!
I do suggest getting comfortable with being upside down before learning to do a basic invert. Try working on Reverse handstands, you can do an inverted crucifix from here! Elbowstands are great as well, and can be practiced against the wall or pole. 🙂

Hello welcome to the site!! As mentioned, there are lessons here too 🙂 they are all arranged in order, focusing on building strenght first, to help prevent injury. So there is no guessing, or trying to figure out what to do next. Enjoy getting back on the pole!

It was just a link for a discussion posted here resently about pregnancy. If you use the search you’ll find a number of posts on this topic 🙂
-
I do talk about opening up at the hips in the lesson. Depending on when you had the lessons it may have been an old one. We are now on our third generation of lessons 🙂

This thread may help you.
https://www.studioveena.com/forums/view/338. Always stick to exercises your familiar with when pregnant and speak with your midwife or dr about what's best for you.
Congrats!!!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif
