Yes it’s normal to have off days!! As much as a beginner who is in love with their pole hates to here it…the other ladies are right. Rest is the best thing. If you try and do heavy poling every day it will do more harm than good. When you do any type of exercise where you use your muscles to lift more than they are accustomed to…. you actually cause small tears in the muscle fibers. Don’t worry it’s normal…thats how your muscles grow…. kind of a tear and repair situation https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif So the real important part is the repair, if you don’t allow your muscle the time they need to recover or give them the nutrition they need you can end up with over use injuries and a worn out body. Its not the work out that causes muscles to grow its the recovery. It much more complex than that but you get the idea https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_idea.gif

As a beginner you don’t want to have your heavy, hard work outs in a row. If you do inverts Monday then try transitions and dancing on Tuesday. You could also use the off days to stretch, just don’t forget to warm up first. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
