30 day Ab Challenge!
Posted by Veena on December 4, 2013 at 4:33 pmI’ve seen several people asking about the 30 day Ab challenge so I thought I would re-post for you guys! Here is the video with the visuals and tips for the exercises used and the Challenge sheet.

Thank you, Veena. For some reasons I have missed this video. I will definately try it, and it will be a change in my routine…

When would you suggest adding this end, after warm-up or stretches? I definitely want to add this to my daily pole routine.
Thx Veena!

FITQUTIE You could do this as your warm up if you like or at the end of a pole session to really fatigue the muscles. 🙂

Hello Veena,
I have started the challenge and face some difficulties with the pole grip as you suggest for the leg lifts. As this is a challenge, I assume one day or anther I will have to learn to do it your way, but at this stage I feel more comfortable with your grip “Veena grip”: kind of twisted “Veena grip”. What do you think? I am very happy with this challenge as it forces me to work both sides:-)

How are you twisting the grip, as in for a shoulder mount? The Veena grip is not used for the Pole Leg Lifts. The grip you use is a Cup Grip, this grip is the best for that exercise allowing you to pull equally with both hands against the pole. It’s a cup grip with the arms up much higher over head. If it’s a lack of flexibility that makes the move uncomfortable then try placing a yoga strap or belt around the pole hold. For the exercise to be effective you need to be able to pull with the hands against the pole as you lift the legs. 🙂

Yes, Veena, you are right, you showed the “cup grip” and I use the grip for the Shoulder Mount. I understand that it’s better to use the cup grip: at least I will try to find my way. I have the feeling that I can’t grip the pole enough to lift my leg but I guess the more I practice, the easier will be. Thanks for the explanation!

Even if you can only lift the leg a little it’s totally fine! Again if your shoulders are tight use a strap behind the pole. 🙂

or it might be lack of strenght in my arms – I am doing also some weight lifts..
-
figures which are atanding accross every move, for ex.:”9 Left knee truck”
-
It’s the number of times you do each exercise in a row. So you would perform 9 Knee tucks in a row then move on to the next exercise.
