We did this once before….https://www.studioveena.com/forums/view/2011_January_Challenge_20110101120448 we could try it again too!

With a lot of moves once you get it….then you just need to keep practicing. We can over analyze and hold ourselves back, most moves will not look perfect right away. I still take time to work on doing a pretty basic invert. This move takes strength in both the upper back and biceps (abs of course)…..if you let the arms go straight as your lifting it will be harder to get the hips up, and then the tipping motion can't follow through (with straight arms). Keeping up with strength work. Be happy you DID it, I'm proud of you, the rest will come. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_heart1.gif

@ purplequeen…I don't think you would be disappointed with my lessons. I have worked very hard on making sure they are super easy to use and follow. I have about 350 moves and full routines in the lessons as well. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

If your taking the lessons I cover a few different methods of entry and placement for this move, Using both hooked feet and open. The knee hold will hurt…but be sure your squeezing the hamstring of the top, hooked, leg so your taking pressure off the bottom leg. I think a common mistake is letting the bottom let take on all of the pressure. For the bottom leg…never place the pole on the knee cap or on the soft part around the knee cap. The pole should rest along the shin. https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4d07835a-c7f4-46f1-87b1-630f0ac37250

All of the certs you listed are fine. I think the important thing to remember is to never stop learning. I am always studying new things (outside of what ACE provides) because in health and fitness things are ALWAYS changing. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Thanks guys! @ Finreah, the stretching lessons are also in order so you can just do them in a row if you like. Read the descriptions because several of the stretches work the same muscle groups, so if your in a rush you can pick and chose to do only one stretch that targets say the hamstrings for example instead of doing all the stretches for the hamstrings. Everything is grouped together this includes the conditioning lessons too. All shoulder exercises are in a row, all Ab ect….https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

@ Kaygee10….if your looking for guidance the lessons here are set up in the order in which you should do them. the V Invert is not beginner in anyway so please be careful. The lessons even include strength and stretching for pole. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Here is a lesson that covers an upright split grip, if your doing it right most of the weight is on the top arm. https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/18f06398-b91f-11df-856f-001b214581be

Try placing the arm pit up just a bit higher than you think you might need, (slightly above shoulder level) then engage the scapula and push the arm pit down AND back against the pole. This can lessen some of the pain of this grip. Just pressing straight back hurts a bit more I feel… https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_heart1.gif

You should be able to buy extensions that will allow you to use your pole at 11 ft. My x pole is extended to about 14 🙂 You could call x pole and see what they recommend. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Thanks guys!! xoxo

I have seen some good booty shakin so far….I need to watch them all though!!! I'm behind…know pun intended. ha
-
Isisandshiva..are you looking for something with more grip? Maybe you could try a lil mynx power coated pole….but you would have to wait until you moved so you knew what size….
-
Nestlee…this is an advanced intermediate move so keep that in mind. P.O.C will be the hands along the inside of the arm and right under the front of the arm pit area (on the torso) A strong upper back, biceps and abdominals are needed. Here is the lesson https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4cc828d1-78d8-419f-b83b-1c610ac37250

Your strength will come back…but I would stay away from the Twisted grip…..

Welcome to the site!! There is a lot of great info on the forum and of course in the online lessons. 🙂
-
Oh I forgot to add, you can use either a band or tube for resistance. The different colors represent different levels of resistance.

Each one of the conditioning lessons are important for pole…that is why they are included. To figure out what muscles to focus on for a particular move, take a peek at the lesson description. This lists the muscle groups used 🙂
-
All of the conditioning lessons here are also used for injury prevention 🙂
