From my understanding, massage and rolling an injury is good even early on because it will help prevent the scar tissue from forming back in a odd way making things tight for the muscle. However, I know recommendations are always changing and there are many theories out there as far as muscle injury go. I find heat helpful too, as long as I don’t have swelling.
I had similar pain when trying to focus on lengthening my hamstrings, they are my stubborn area, so I found using a tennis ball so helpful. After that, I made sure to be less aggressive with my hamstrings, now after doing tons of downward dogs within a reasonable ROM my hams are finally finding more length, but it’s been a sloooow process.
To use the ball, just sit down on the floor and place it under the bum, rolling around until you find the sore spot, then stay with that spot for a bit. Don’t sit on it for too long, like hours, just see if you can find the spot and sit with the tension until it starts to feel lessened. You can use the tennis ball before you workout or stretch and after or anytime of day!

I made the original Trex hates pole climbs meme 💜 This one is super funny too and I’m flattered that it’s getting around the pole community!

Any pole listed by Rumist is a quality pole. Don’t buy anything that is cheap!!! Tm

Welcome back, congratulations and yes, we did notice 😊
I don’t know if the pole would leave a mark, I would think if it did it might pop back up after you take it down??

As long as it’s dance and in costume 👯👻 doesn’t have to be spooky or scary. 😊 As many people can dance in your video as you like!

YEs, they can scratch the pole. I you have a pole that you don’t want scratched I wouldn’t use them to dance in. If the pole is Stainless steel scratches are ok, if the studio doesn’t mind, and often help with grip.

The 30 day take off program is a great way to get back into pole, it takes you step by step and day by day telling you what to work on for 30 days. 🙂

Mine fail at times, try again later or check to make sure it didn’t go up even though it said fail…I’ve had them say fail, but still post.

I will see how Oct. looks. It would be nice to get together before it starts to rain 😀

You can target any area for strengthening or flexibility but you cannot targe a specific area for weight loss. 😊

Runmist is correct, you can’t spot reduce body fat. Everyone’s bodies loose fat differently and for some that means hips last, others belly last and so on.
If you want to strengthen the hips you’ll find options in the lessons for that. Read descriptions to see what muscles are strengthened. Booty lift, booty squeeze and hip flexor lift are all good for strength and stability. The best way to reduce body fat is diet and exercise that raises the heart rate. The routines here that are not flexibility based would be great cardio. 💜

Too sensitive nah, we NEED people who are sensitive, it just sucks to be one of them at times!!! 💜💜💜

I read through this and see people who are concerned for you and want to see you well. In my time on SV I’ve seen my share of members who are trying to post just to upset someone and I don’t feel Poleisnewtome was trying to upset you.
I’ve also been on the end of a conversation/post where I felt I had been misunderstood and felt others were saying things that were hurtful intentionally. Sometimes they really were, and other times I was too sensitive. My dad use to tell us girls “don’t be so sensitive” lol in the most loving way of course! I started my pole journey as someone who was very sensitive to myself and others, so I totally get that for sure!!!! WE CARE ABOUT YOU!
