    Yes I have 2, 20 min routines for splits stretching also you’ll find many individual lessons that are more in depth and cover placement in order for you to get the most out of each stretch!

    Hey guys, if you want to help protect your ribs please take time to learn how to properly do pole holds, this will give you a correct starting point for inverts and can save you from rib pain and other issues. This video shows 4 easy exercises for scapula and proper placement for the Side Pole Hold used when inverting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJ3V_2DsxgE&list=PLyXWQXP3dueofybLatPPuLCbvfSPF2oSF

    I’m guessing you’re not alone on this and I bet it’s not as bad as you think. 🙂

    Everyone is different. Often if you’ve been training for months you can keep rest days to 1 or 2 days a week, however, I still suggest watching which muscle groups you’re using each day so you can avoid over lapping muscle groups too often. So if I were to run, I would not do a leg strength day the next day, I would strengthen legs the same day as my run, or have a day of rest between.

    If you are feeling low on energy then check to make sure you’re eating well, sleeping well and if so it may be time to cut back for a week. The body needs time off and taking a full week, while it sounds like a bad idea, can be wonderful for progress. Listen to your body.

    I use to train super hard and now I feel life is short and I want to enjoy it, so I don’t want to feel run down all the time or sore. I’m now in better shape then when I pushed hard for weeks on end. Unless you’re a professional athlete and you have to workout, try to space things out so you don’t burn out!

    It looks pretty good overall, I would suggest taking it a bit easier then they do in the beginning with the swinging the body from side to side so fast! To avoid injury I’d warm the body up a bit longer before such intense twisting!!

    Try to think of the main page as a running feed of everything. If you want to look through only Discussions click on that link. If you want to see the newest videos then click on the Video link, it’s still in chronological order.

    I was wondering how long it would take everyone to notice! So far I’m really liking it I feel I see more and if I want to only look at discussions I just go to the discussion page. I use to miss a lot of the videos because they were pushed down so fast by everything.

    If it becomes too annoying it can always be changed back, so far I’m enjoying it tho!

    Kate, I don’t think we have the kind of members who would keep commenting to keep their video at the top, everyone is pretty respectful here.

    Tigerschic and Anzia had some good advice! If you’re goal is competing then I’d go with the 45 if you pole for fun go with whatever you like best. I think most women who are 5′ 7″ and under like smaller poles, (but not all) it can be a bit easier on the joints and much easier for one handed moves/spins and split grips. If you can use all sizes!

    I haven’t had any formal training in any dance or gymnastics 😊 I did take a few weeks of figure skating lessons as a teen. However, last year I took 4 ballroom classes, and 3 ballet classes for the first time, it was so fun! I so wish I would have danced as a kid!

    I came into pole strong from lifting weights and having the knowledge as a personal trainer, but then I had my 4th baby and had to start over rebuilding strength and thats where the inspiration for my method of teaching came from. Build strength first!
