Preparation prior to ever getting on the pole
What type(s) of strength training have you all tried? Yoga, cardio, weight training, etc. I own a Pre Cor Strength 3.21 Multi Station weight lifting machine. I use it every other day and cardio alternating with the weights every other day. What are your thoughts, suggestions, and/or comments??
Thanks!

The lessons here at veena are really great for starting off maybe try those? There’s a 30 day take off. I do only pole, yoga and body weight exercises as I don’t like weights too much if I use them I use light weights.

Preparation to start pole helps sure but is not really necessary. What makes pole great is that even those who have no exercise background, can do it because you build your strength as you learn pole. However, I’ve found that cardio helps with my stamina & endurance on the pole and if I don’t do cardio consistently (at least 2-3x a week), my stamina definitely suffers. I also do some light strength training at home: pull ups, push ups, planks, core exercises, pole drills, elbow/forearm stands but I am not diligent with it (which I am working in) but every little bit of effort helps.
But in all honesty, you really have to play around with different regimens to find out what works for YOU, everyone’s different & what works for one person might not work for you.

Besides the conditioning and strength lessons here (most don’t need a pole at all) you could try exercises of this nature to build strength for pole.https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/52f90381-4458-4123-99e5-41150a9aa0eb
