REST! 🙂 Also how often were you poling? I rarely pole dance more than 3 times a week, there will be some weeks I pole 5 or 6 days but that’s never when I’m just getting back into pole and I don’t go at that pace for more than a week or so. I also make sure I vary my pole work, for example I don’t work split grip moves heavily two days in a row. If I did a lot of split grip work the day before, the next day I might focus on leg grips or floor work. 🙂
You will not loose too much strength taking 2 weeks off, and what you do loose it will come back quickly…IF you let your body heal. xoxox

Have you been working on Pole Holds in class? If not these can be really helpful for climbs because you learn how to anchor yourself allowing you to remove the legs.
Here is the Pole Climb lesson if you have a subscription https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/233115a0-b889-11df-856f-001b214581be You’ll see below the main player a list of 7 other moves you can work on to help you achieve the goal of a climb. 🙂

Hamstrings are alway my nemesis. When I stop stretching I have a hard time even touching my toes!
Runemist, I have a new flowmotion stretch lesson coming that I like to do for my Hamstrings! -
Oh, I have something that will help those who want to work towards this stretch. The new lesson I posted for the Pelvic tilt! https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/53e179c2-be8c-4f2d-9693-16850a9aa0eb
And looking good Sparrow!

OMG you poor thing! I good rule to follow is to make around 10 attempts when it comes to a move. This will help you avoid excessive bruising and overuse injury. Let your skin fully heal before trying the pole sit again. Pole should not make you bleed! Feel better soon!

Hi! The lessons address leg lines often, but you may also want to check out the Lower Body Routine for even more help. 💜https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/52e9d171-5724-43b2-8784-47960a9aa0eb

A tennis ball against the pecs on the wall feels great too!

I use to feel sick often after working out, for me it was dairy I use to eat a lot of dairy and would often workout after breakfast and I loved eating cereal and milk! Then I’d finish my workout with a protein shake that included milk. I’m not saying that’s your problem but just something else to consider. Dehydration is a big reason for feeling sick as others mentioned.

Omg, I’m so sorry! This isn’t in my scope of practice so I’m not sure how recovery would go with something of this severity. I will say, make sure they set you up with a good physical therapist because our bodies are capable of amazing things!!! I strongly feel that if you want to pole again, you will!!! ðŸ’

Can you make a video for us? We could check to see if there’s just something you’re missing. While I would say inverting isn’t right for everyone. I also wouldn’t say someone will Never invert. 💜
-
Yep, just follow the lessons, they’re in order. Also to mix things up so you’re not always working on inverts. Try working on some of the combos, there are 30 and they don’t require any inverts. 😊

Here’s the first lesson guys! https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/53e179c2-be8c-4f2d-9693-16850a9aa0eb
