Most painful moves!
-
Superman, It's a move very painful for me…
-
I agree with @solsticedark! Anything with an armpit hold is unbelievably painful.
-
I'm with old english. The Remi sit makes tears come to my eyes. Armpit holds don't bother me much for some reason. Knee pit holds used to, but once I developed hamstrings of steel they stopped lol.
-
remi, remi layback, remi extreme by order of increase pain..
knee hold, specially the open knees variation
no hands cradle
embow grip shoulder mount/dismount and all the embraces (elbow grip aysha dont bother me at all)
last but not least, no hands superman aka superpain (indeed…!)
I eventually got over the pain from superman, marley and scorpio, but i still remember quite well how hard it was… supose with enough practice the others will stop hurting as well…

I think they all burn at first, it's the nature of the beast! It's amazing how the body acclimates to the burns, bruises and abrasians. When I first started poling I would get bruised on the inside of my legs and arms. Other dancers who had been poling longer would nod their head and say "workin on a new trick huh?" I would nod back, a little embarrassed. I think the worst was Yogin. I was black under my arm. The other was knee hold. I was afraid to go to court bc I looked like a battered woman! lol. Now, I only bruise very rarely when working on a new trick, however, I do have this odd rash on my shoulder from SM. I use special cream on it and sometimes I wake up at night just scratching the heck out of it (the good kinda scratch, like poison oak–it feels so good but it damages the skin with red marks). The cream seems to be working, so even though I usually stay away from creams in order to not get it on the pole, I have started moisterizing at night with really good product.https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

The teddy bear kills me! I think because my boobs get in the way…. and it takes a bit longer to get the right spot?And I can’t do the Scorpio for the life of me…with the pain on that little tender spot on my upper thigh! I think I’d rather poke my eyes out 🙁 Lol
-
Almost every new trick when you're first learning it is painful in some way or another. You really have to be a masochist to pole dance;)
-
remi layback is so painful! i just can't get over the pain on my foot. it's not the same kind of pain from the tender spots on your thighs. it just feels like i'm about to break every bone in my foot and it'll never stop hurting! haha
i hate doing yogini even though i can easily do it because it hurts, but i don't really mind teddy bear.
jade used to hurt and going from jade to scorpio did too, but i think my thigh is over it cuz i've tried it so many times
i don't like the elbow grip air walk/boomerangs or embraces. they really hurt the inside of my elbow
the worst is still the remi though
-
Agree poleprincess! I can't remi at all cos it crushes my foot on the bottom and its SO painful 🙁
I find YOGINI most painful and I can barely do it cos of the sheer pain, I jump off the pole screaming!!!
Knee hold was SO painful but now that I can do it, it's not painful much now
Superman I never had issues with, I could superman 20 times in a row without much leg chaffing going on! maybe cos I get into it from a Shoulder mount there's less leg smooshing going on?
-
Allegra–I can do it, but it hurts so bad I bail everytime I feel the pole digging into my lower back/ribs. 🙁
-
^^Allergra.. I did it for the first time on Monday, and I have a bruise the size of a dollar bill on my thigh! Not cool
-
I haven't made it to any of the moves mentioned above. The basic pole sit is killing me, and I haven't even gotten to where I can take my hands off the pole. Argh 🙁
-
I’ve been pole sitting for more than 8 weeks and it still kills me.
-
YOGINI. I hate that bitch. But I could do a teddy bear in my sleep all day long. how weird!
