30 Day Invert: Day 15
Duration: 00:27:39
Today is a full rest day and you’ll do some self-care by using the pole massage routine.
Pro tip: I’m sharing my invert don’ts with you as we move towards full inverts from standing because being aware of slight changes in body placement can sometimes be the key to unlocking that “ah ha” moment when a move “clicks”. Our hips can help drive us in the direction we want to go!
Allow the videos to play in order and follow along. Feel free to pause anytime you need to.

First time that I couldn’t get thru all the reps for a program…that’s a lot of climbing. 🙃
Yes it is!! Remember to track how many you did do tho😊
So much climbing!! I couldn’t even get through all the reps I didn’t have the energy to invert today!
The reps are intentionally high and just a suggested goal. Just be sure to track what you did. 😆
I think my basic invert is getting better! I still have to scooch my knees up, but I’m now holding it for a couple breaths before easing my feet back down. Still too chicken to try inverted crucifix, but tonight I definitely felt closer! 😀
That’s wonderful to hear!!🎉
Oh my god…I was wondering why I couldn’t tuck spin and kept getting my bottom forearm stuck whenever I tried. I’ve been putting my inside hand high and my outside hand low…arg!!! I feel so silly! I love side climb and x-ankle climb – they are short-pole friendly. The pole strength routine kicks my butt every time! Haha!
So after a small hiatus I finally completed this day. I started this program already being able to invert, but wanting to become stronger. Today I was able to invert, almost do an inverted crucifix, which I’ve been working on, but THEN out of nowhere, I did my first cobra dismount! I felt secure enough to just handstand and pole push my way down. I don’t think I could have done it without this program. Thank you!!!
Yay!!!!! That’s awesome 💜💜💜
As yet I can’t get the x climb. I think I am having a slippy day! something to work on.
Question about split grips! In my final x climbs, my bottom (dominant) wrist had some shooting pains in it, and my grip gave out. Afterward my fingers in that hand were tingling as if they had fallen asleep. I am still having trouble with moving the fingers in that hand and feeling tingly… wondering if this has happened to anyone else, and if it’s likely due to a lack of wrist flexibility/strength, or poor form? Thanks in advance 🙂
Sounds like you might have positioned your arm so the ulnar nerve became irritated. It should get better with time. If not always see a Dr. Make sure you’re always pushing throught the palm of the bottom hand and not fully gripping, causing the wrist to twist.
Thank you for the reply! It was really helpful. Took the last 12 days off and hoping it’s healed enough to get back to pole today 🙂
This was fantastic! Really pushed me hard today but I loved it! Thanks so much Veena!
You’re welcome!
well, I worked off the pizza I ate yesterday. Took my time and got through it all though :’)
Yum 🕠😊
I cannot do the ankle x climb, the pole hold spin, or anything that involves “floating†yourself up onto the pole. Is that just a strength issue? Other people make it look so easy
Yes, it’s a matter of building up strength. They might look like easy things but it takes a lot of effort.
This one is still a great workout 3 years later 😮💨 going to feel this tomorrow
Heck yeah 👍
