Wow, that woman has skills. I am probably half her size and not even half as graceful.
-
Wow can someone please send me that video link… She is now my motivation Frm this day on out. I’m 5″0 143 pounds and I’m no where near to being loved by the pole like that, while still making it look sexy… I loved that video..

Wow she has some flexibility and strength.
-
Wow! Truly amazing.
But why won’t she lose weight? If one could work around the pole like that, thought losing weight would just come naturally…. -
Maybe her body has changed a lot for the better. She is absolutely amazing and very sexy……..

That’s a pretty big misconception, actually, that if you just exercise, the weight will fall off. Losing weight is mostly affected by diet. For example, lots of people train for a marathon, thinking that they will lose weight. However, since they’re working harder, they get hungrier (as they should), and eat more, and so they stay the same weight or even gain a few pounds. I’ve been pretty much the same weight the whole time I’ve been pole dancing, since I haven’t changed my eating habits. I look a little smaller because I’ve gained some muscle and lost some fat, but it’s not a huge difference.

She could also have a disorder like PCOS or a thyroid imbalance that makes it extremely difficult to lose weight. It’s clear to me that she has spent a lot of time learning proper mechanics, and how to unlock the potential of her own body. I would guess that in her entire time of pole training, she has always been fat. But I don’t use the word fat as a derogatory- body fat % is just one marker of health, and there are many others. Her cardiovascular health and stamina, her muscle development, her joint health and flexibility, are all clearly very good. I say good on her, for loving herself as she is and working hard at being fit. To me the point of this video is partly to show that our society is too obsessed with being skinny as the only/most important marker of health and attractiveness; it’s wrong to judge a person’s abilities, their strengths and weaknesses, from their outward appearance. If I had a dollar for every time I discovered that a pole student who would qualify as “fat” had abilities that I don’t have or advanced in some skills faster than I did/do, I would have a lot more beer money. Under every dress size is a woman, a person, with strengths and weaknesses like ANY of us.

aybee I disagree….. I started training between 7-10 miles every other day and heck I eat moderately healthy which means 50% of the time… I pole dance 3 times a week for an hour or two each time and I have lost 25 pounds. my eating is nothing to be proud of. lol I lost the first 10 pounds by pole alone. I added the running and elliptical to speed it up… I think it’s lack of movement that makes people overweight based off the health info given to me by a personal trainer we are supposed to walk 10 miles a day minimum for a healthy body and realistically who does that?
