Hey there!
I have really sensitive skin and when I first doing pole sits, planks, and well pretty much anything on the pole, my skin would hurt. You’ve only just begun your journey so your skin is “soft” (if that makes sense). I’ve noticed that the more I do pole and the more often, the less pain I feel on my skin. In fact, doing pole sits don’t even hurt my skin anymore.
As your progress with pole, you’ll also build more muscle which will help you rely on that instead of your skin. So yes, I think it will go away in time 🙂 -
Everything Dolce Vita said. it does go away even though right now that seems impossible for something this painful to just not hurt one day. but its true. and squeeze the heck out of your muscles. that makes moves much less painful. if your thighs hurt, squeeze them very hard. the muscles will grip the pole instead of just skin. ugghhhh. I’m so glad to have gotten through that time. it was particularily hard for me. if I didnt know that is was normal and it would go away soon I probably would have quit pole. it was that painful for me. I was wondering if I was doing damage or doing something wrong. nope. it hurts that bad, then it gets better. I hope it goes away soon for you. hang in there! literally.:)
