Poor Hand
Does anyone else who is still “fresh” to pole get bruises/sore on their dominant pole hand? I already broke in my right hand with that oh-so-sexy spin callous (right under the middle finger). But now every time I pole that meaty muscle of the thumb gets sore and even lightly bruised after an hour of pole play. My hand also get rather red & raw after. It goes away after a few hours but it’s annoying. I don’t use any grip aides yet (waiting for it to come).
(I honestly don’t recall if I had this problem when I was a studio go-er. But then again, I was only going twice a week. Damn new pole skin! lol.)

I get them all the time (am a major newbie, only went for 2 months classes and am now training at home because teacher’s in Moscow) and I’ve calluses on both my hands :/

My right hand gets soooo beat up. I literally pole till my hand is raw. Just got a new blister on my right hand, right where that thumb pad on your palm is. That’s a new one! Usually that just bruises. Oi!
My hands need to toughen up cause I’m not quitting anytime soon. lol. -
I’d like to see it as my pole ‘medals’ :p I used to have baby smooth hands… and now they’re like, callous-filled -_- hahahahaha but y’know, nothing beats pole fun!

The first few days I got callouses on both of my hands. Only been poling for a few weeks now, but I only get very small ones on each middle finger. BUt although I don’t have that many “pole medals,” I get “pole kisses” frequently.

I think both are worth being proud of. I’m getting pole kisses on my inner thighs, my inner arm, my waist… and my teacher’s horrified xD then again, part and parcel of poling and we’re having fun so. *shrug* :p
