Oh I bet you'll get lots a great advice from the members here, cut they're awesome!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
If your looking for a removable pole, you might wanna try the xpole. We do sell them here on the site if your interested.
I would get a stud finder, makes it easy to find the joist, but if you have plaster ceiling it wont work.
Think about checking out the online lessons here. They are a great way improve your skill when you are not in the studio. I also include stretching and conditioning lessons that can help you progress faster. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

That's a lot of working out both of you! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif Rest!! Rest days are good,https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif and just as necessary as workout days. If your training or working that much, your diet (not dieting) lol but what you eat and how often, is very important. Eating often, making sure you get enough healthy food, during the day will help with fatigue. Bananas are great, and can be just as helpful as an energy drink! Plain old water is also very necessary. Whenever I start to feel tired during the day, I drink some water, and usually it helps boost my energy.
I eat 6 times a day. Breakfast, snack, lunch, snack, dinner, snack. Keeps my blood sugar regular, so I can avoid fatigue. I eat larger snacks on the days I workout. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Cliche, did you see a dr about your elbow? Do you know how you were injured? You might not have to wait 2 weeks depending on what happened.

Lyme, I'm sorry that lady is being crazy!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_evil.gif When I run into ridiculous people who resort to name calling or are just plan stupid. I don't even both responding….Block, or Delete them. Those negative people love to argue and upset otheres, so while you may want to justify why you love pole. Is it really worth your time to bother with this person? Probably not. xoxo

Try resting a bit longer between flexibility sessions, if that doesn't help then give me a shout and we'll re-evaluate. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

You may want to look at a few things.
Are you pushing too far? Sounds like you've been stretching for a while now, so you shouldn't be sore after every time.
Are you really, really warm, I cannot stress how much this helps!
Are you also doing any running or strength building actives? These can reduce flexibility if you're not stretching well after training.
My first thought, is possible over training, if your feeling like things are just getting tighter. It's OK to take time off. Most important, listen to your body, everyone is different and we have to learn what works best for us. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Hello and welcome to the site! You've come to the right place to get started!https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

Hello and welcome! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gifHave you looked into the lessons here? I've got some great stretches and strengthening lessons for the hands, and wrists/forearms. Stretching the hands and forearms after each practice is so very important. There are a lot of things you can do with your pole to strengthing as well.
Beautiful horse btw!

Opps I meant to say invert OR shoulder mount!
-
A controlled invert with legs extended or without any momentum takes time. You'll get there, a small sweeping reach with the outside leg is fine. Its jerking the upper body with a hard swing or jump and kick that can be a problem. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

I think it's a great idea for next months Challenge. Joalex! I did a chair dance to #1 Crush.

If it's an xpole they are meant to be removed often if need. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

SadieNikole, Welcome back!! If you have been off the pole for a bit, I would suggest starting from the beginning of the lessons again (if you haven't). Conditioning and strength based moves are important as a beginner or if you've taken time off.
If you ever have a question as to what muscle groups to strengthen, for a particular move in the lessons, take a look at the descriptions. I have listed the major muscle groups use. Then you'll be able to either use the Pole strength, Conditioning or weights at a gym, to focus on those areas. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

1. Yes, you can leave your pole up, but you should check to see if you need to tighten or adjust it every time before you dance on it. Sometimes the longer you leave the pole up the harder it can be to take down, but if you don' t need to travel with it it's, not such a big deal.
2. For the lessons please watch all of the "Getting started" lessons first. These lessons tell you how to use the lessons and how to organize your workouts. All lessons are placed in the order in which you should do them. Read all descriptions for each lesson. If you have any more questions feel free to ask. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

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 have seen this somewhere…..hmmmm, can't remember where, but yes, that is so cool!!!

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
