    The scale can be so deceiving, I don't suggested judging by only that. If your clothes still fit then it's probably not a problem. 

    Sounds like you have a great plan so far! The body likes variety so changing things up is key. Try 1 or 2 weeks of conditioning muscle groups used during the session, followed by stretches for those muscles. Then change it up after week 2, by conditioning before freestyling, or by conditioning muscles not used in the session. 

    With the flexibility training,(heavy stretching) again changing things up is good. You could do splits, and back 2-3 times a week. Then the following week switch to splits and back on different days. Remember you can gently stretch after any workout. 🙂

    As long as you are not working or heavily stretching the same muscle groups 2 days in a row you'll be fine. Keep a blog or write down your training sessions so you can look back. This will help you decide what your next week will look like and you can change it up! 🙂

    ISis, you're thinking of two different things. There was a post about a SV "challenge" for abs, here is the video of moves for the challenge, the link with the calendar for the challenge is in the video description. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhDQzOk4weM&feature=c4-overview-vl&list=PLyXWQXP3dueofybLatPPuLCbvfSPF2oSF

    My reply to Mummy was referring to a "program" that is included in lessons. It's called the 30 Day Take off Program. The program is FAR more involved then the ab challenge. With this program everything is presented for you for 30 days. I tell you when to rest, what conditioning, strength and pole work to do and stretches too! It also included tips. Here is the video for the Program. 🙂 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4KzMIIbZH0&list=PLyXWQXP3dueofybLatPPuLCbvfSPF2oSF

    Mummyof3 If you've taken the lessons here, a good option is to use the 30 day take off program as a guideline. Just change out the pole work for whatever level you're at. 

    I recommend working on new moves 10 times then move on to something else to avoid excessive bruising and overuse injury. 

    Doing a freestyle for a whole song a few times a pole session you'll probably be getting some good cardio through that. If you do freestyle as a warm up make sure you avoid moves that heavily involve the forearms and shoulders until you've warmed up.

    You don need a pole, feel free to do chair, floor, wall, or hula hooping instead!

    You mentioned you also pole sat home. Are you taking the lessons here? There is no reason to feel you should invert on a timeline. To have a long healthy pole life you want to build strenght first then worry about things like inverts. There are tons of beautiful thing you can do that do not require inverts 🙂

    Talk with your dr or midwife and if you have the ok, I suggest staying on the safe side, even in early pregnacy. In a performance situation you aren’t using a familiar pole and you’re dealing with other distractions so keep it within your total comfort level. IMO Congrats!!!!!!

    Well it could be possible for I a shorter stage pole to maaaybe be faster. It seems the more pole the more wobble is possible on a stage, slowing it down. But that’s just a guess! Lol it really shouldn’t change though unless you climb up high.

    Down low on stage poles tends to be fast. However they can slow down sooner then a mounted pole once you start climbing high and moving around because of the wobble they all have.

    HI Velvetvixen!!! Never feel bad about not working on tricks. I went all last year and didn't learn ANYTHING new! It was nice to take some time and just dance and enjoy other things I love like hooping! Speaking of, not sure if you where here when I added Hula hooping lessons but they're here too! It's great to see you back, most of my favorite dances are not trick heavy but dancy!
