I usually tell ladies to start with basic strength train moves then work on transition and spins. When performing spins or inverts always keep your shoulders back and down, this will prevent you from "hanging" from your arm. You want to be sure to engage your muscles and not hang. I would look into lessons https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Ok nobody stone me! I am a firm believer in exercise and diet. Its the hardest, slowest way, BUT its safe and will extend your life and make your daily tasks easier and more enjoyable. I can totally understand the boob job thing, after nursing 4 babies…ugh, they are little and saggy, I didn’t even know that was possible. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif anyway, I’m glad I don’t have implants now though. When I was breast feeding and poling a few months back, my boobs did get in the way. I’m very glad they have deflated back down to their AA size. Too bad clothes don’t fit me right, I could use some boobs for that! Now back to the exercise, you can see amazing results with proper diet and exercise…I’m not saying do a fad "diet", stay away from these, they tend to leave out important food groups. Everyone is always their worst critic. Your stomach might never be like it was before baby, BUT with proper training you can learn how to hold it in and make it look good when you want to…thats what I do! Models don’t look like models all the time either, there are tricks. I’m always shocked to see how I look on my vids, cuz thats not what I look like during the day. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif Unless others are around… SUCK IT IN VEENA, SUCK IT IN hehe I’m a fit girl with a pooch…oh well, this body gave life to 4 babies….we give life!!! Abs are heavily used in pole dance and I cringe at the thought of what limitations a tummy tuck might leave you with. It can take a long time for extra skin to go away, but once a woman looses fat around the midsection they tend to realize it wasn’t all just skin, it was also fat. Most Woman tend to hold body weight around the middle, even the naturally thin. Tummy fat is usually, not always, but usually the LAST to disappear. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif When I get a chance I might just have to make a video showing the tricks I’ve taught myself to use when taking pictures or videos. As I sit here and type my stomach is hanging out over my pants! lol. Your a beautiful woman and I’m glad you are part of the studio veena family….we all care about each other, that means you too girly!!!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gifGive this some good long thought. *hugs*

One more thing keep ANYTHING that is abrasive AWAY from your X pole….Chrome, and the TG are different than Stainless!!!!! The acetone nail polish remover, would work good to clean all the gunk off the pole that comes from packing and shipping, threads and all, otherwise, rubbing alcohol, windex, vodka and a soft cloth is great for pole practice sessions.

Breaking in a pole is really only for Stainless steel. If you have an X you don’t need to do anything to it other than clean it! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

awwww guys, I had thought of this a while back……its way to labor intensive RIGHT NOW for webmaster. I know it might sound simple but this site in itself is the works of a mad genius https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_ugeek.gif I hope that someday in the future we could have that option, but for now we will have to come up with a different way to find each other. Maybe we could have a section in the forum?? I really would like for everyone to find each other, so any other thoughts are welcomed. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

If you see bruising around the area, it could indicate a tear, so you would need to see a doctor right away. To treat a muscle pull, R-I-C-E
Rest,
Ice,
Compression (which might be difficult around your area)
Elevation.
If you have swelling use the RICE method and take Ibuprofen to help to reduce swelling. If the rest and ice isn’t helping at all go see a Dr. ASAP. Better safe than sorry. -
My two suggestions, First stop comparing yourself to others!! Judge your progress by…..YOUR PROGRESS! Second, back off the weight training for now, and just focus on pole. If progressing and perfecting moves is what your goals are now, then that is what you should focus on. Don’t worry, you will maintain the strength you had gained from weights. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rambo.gif Some people are naturally talented at math, some can catch on to body movement quick. Others are lucky and can seem to master anything right brain or left brain, at lightning speed. I am NOT one of those people, my math, and spelling skills suck, always have, my brain just doesn’t work that way, I’m a VERY visual person, I have to see a move in order to perform it. If I read about how to do a move it takes me much longer to figure out. Everyone learns differently. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Welcome! So glad you found us. That looked like a scary crash https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif !!! Pole dance is so much fun and a fab work out, but its very demanding on the body. With that being said, I would highly recommend starting off with some strength training, before hitting the pole dance too heavily. Learning how to properly hold your shoulders and back while pole dancing will be SUPER important! With your history it would be wise, to really focus on injury prevention https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif Warming up and stretching (after pole dance) will be very important too. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumright.gif I think you will love the 50mm X, its a billion times better than peek a poo (yes I said poo) lol. IF you have questions feel free to ask us!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
