I love heels, if your not great at remembering to point your toes when you dance, heels can help you extend your leg line!! Heels can be great for working on balance, and yes, they can work on your calf muscles to some degree. Its not going to be like doing calf raises in the gym though https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif …..but it could help improve your ankle strength/stability too. I always recommend learning new moves bare foot. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

If your having pain when working on the RG, your body might not be physically prepared for this move. Its one of the most demanding moves on the shoulder and wrist, everyone wants to jump into the corkscrew and RG, these are some of the last spins you should be working on. Before working on these two, all other spins should be solid and performed with proper form. If your not doing any other strength training working in addition to pole, working on pole climbs and pole ups will help strengthen the shoulder. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rambo.gif Don’t forget to work on your shoulder flexibility too. Listen to your body. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif Discomfort is normal especially on the skin during pole. Pain is a sign to stop or slow down. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

Awwww great job! I was wondering if you might do that exercise! I recently just found a gadget that basically does the same thing…http://www.gripstik.com/ .but you don’t need the string. We had the dowel and string deal at the gym I use to work at!! This is a great exercise because it also strengthens your fingers too!!! Have you ever tried this grip stick thing?? I was wondering if the tension was adjustable? Nice tutorial. I posted the same thing on your vid!

You could also buy a tennis ball or racket ball, to squeeze. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Hmmm not sure….spins are one of those things that every studio has their own names for, If I can picture it in my head and come up with the name I’ll let you know. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

I’m right handed, but I felt most comfortable leaning my spins left handed! I had an elbow injury that forced me to switch arms for a good long time. I have been working on doing the more advanced inversions on both sides. SCARY! Its totally normal to want to favor one side. If this is your only form of strength training I would highly recommend working with both sides, to avoid an imbalance. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif
