A common problem for at home polers, is not warming up fully. For most people doing a good warm up and warming up the pole is important for grip. The pain will get better over time once your body gets use to it! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

I thought I would upload a practice vid for you guys. I enter into the Marion Amber a bit differently than in other vids I have seen. I use a True grip. Skittles has a vid of her using the true grip as well https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/4f15d625-7cd0-45c2-8023-02c70ac37250

@ Wendym, It's common to have this issue when working with Split grips. If it hurts while performing the move, try using the "gun grip" for the bottom hand. Also make sure your not hyperextining the joints anywhere.
If it hurts after, try this. Don't over do it as Rixi mentioned. I recomend working on new moves no more than 5-10 times in a row, then move on to something else, to aviod over stressing the body. Don't work on the same move the next day, 1-2 times a week is better. Strong wrist are important and stretching the hands and forearms after pole sessions are important as well. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_heart1.gif
If your taking the lessons here is the first link of 7 exercises that will strengthen the wrist/forearms.

I don't know…I would think people would get together in chat to pole! I do know there were a few members meeting in chat for stretching sessions. You can even create a room just for your group.

You can use the webcams in the chat room anytime any day!!!!!!

I would think cool mist would work fine. I use my fabric steamer, that's HOT, but only to clean the poles. I leave it run for a bit, so I can warm my legs and hands, but my room is so big it doesn't make much difference. We have a humidistat in our house anyway.

@ Feed Stacy Tacos (giggles at name) That's hard to say. My suggestion on the x pole Brass working better for sweaty hands is just a thought. I know some girls love the x pole brass, and others it doesn't work with their body chemistry. I personally never have to wipe my hands from sweat…if anything my hands are too dry to grip. I think that is why the TG works well for me.
I lived in CA for a while when I first had my TG. I did get sweaty sometimes because my pole was upstairs and we didnt' have AC. I would slip a bit then. So maybe the brass would work for you?

Tara Karina is a beautiful pole dancer for sure!!! Take care of yourself Tara https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_heart1.gif

I have both the xpole brass and tg. I live in a cold climate, have dry skin, and rarely sweat. The TG is my favorite finish out of any finish. I can grip even when my skin is cool.
The Brass didn't work for me at all. I could grip with my hands if they were really hot, but that was it. My legs and body didn't work with that finish.
I suggest thinking about your climate and skin type. If you tend to sweat more go with brass, if you tend to be cold and dry get the TG. TG in a warm climate is a skin ripper, but I love it.

AdministratorJanuary 13, 2012 at 1:54 pm in reply to: Ever felt like your body’s just not built for pole?!Joyful….and anyone else…. For those who feel like your always slipping because of sweat. Have you tried the X pole Brass finish? I found their brass doesn't work for me. BUT I have dry skin and live in a cold climate, so I rarely sweat. Even in summer I don't sweat much.
Has anyone tried the x pole brass with sweaty hands/body?

Its a good idea englann! Pretty sure my pain was caused by carrying my kids on the same side. I didn't have a pole back then! I don't do everything on both sides but most things. The exercise I mentioned help tremendously.
