This is why many students suffer from scapula or intercostal pain. They do it too often or before they have the strength and muscle memory and often only on one side.

AdministratorJuly 16, 2017 at 7:30 pm in reply to: Having the Classic “how do you tip?” Issue with Tuck InvertsThe tuck invert is far more difficult than the basic. You’re basically deadlifting and unless your basic invert is very solid you don’t need to worry about the tuck right now. Have you gone through the invert program? This will help prepare for tuck and aerial inverts as well.
Don’t get stuck on a move. I see students obsessed over this invert and it’s not even a must have move. Relax, try it now and then, and keep working on other things in the meantime, because everytime you pole you’re building strength overall. Tuck invert is good for building strength but the basic invert is easier on your body and I think looks more fluid than a tuck anyway!

Hi! There’s no set timeline as far as how long it should or will take a person to do splits or back bends. Both of these take time and most of all consistency, but that doesn’t mean training heavy every day!!!! You need rest days to see improvement. As mentioned try my 30 days to flexy program, this includes the whole body and tells you when to rest and gives you tips everyday too.

I can’t think of any beginner options other than from the floor stuff. The one you mentioned is pretty challenging too. Here’s the lesson if you wanna work on it at home too. Split grip invert https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4fc78372-a964-43ee-a494-6cd00ac37250

My extensions are xpole brand…but I’m talking about personally having them, not selling. I don’t sell extensions on the site.

If it’s an xpole I suggest investing in the permanent mount, I wouldn’t put mine up and down so much if I didn’t have that. It makes it fast and easy!!!

Oh..I should say the 30 day programs will help with fear, that was part of the reason for them. We drill things over and over and you become comfortable…and you always start with the easiest, most comfortable options!

Hi! It was a challenge not a program that’s why it’s not in the lessons. Here’s a link to an old thread! forums/view/529fa5da-d154-4b47-9cde-67460a9aa0eb

What everyone is saying was true for me as well. After my dad died, then our member and my friend Layla died it scared me. I became aware of all kinds of danger and even lost the desire to learn new pole stuff. I’m saying, it’s normal, you’re not alone and it CAN get better! Not sure if this will help but here’s an old scope on fear. https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/5632ba12-6de8-430c-bc75-1e2eac11006c
