Im still pleading my case to my husband. So im looking for a legit/valid excuse to stay all weekend instead of driving back and forth.
"honey, you have to understand, im going to be so tired out from watching these amazing women feats of strength that i simply will not have the energy to drive back that night"
that might work for ya? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

hello https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif throwing my two cents in, ive been poling regularly (2-3 times a week) for about 3 or 4 months now, and i still get bruises. i dont push myself too hard cause i dont want that "i cant do my job the next day" feeling though – im a wench at medieval times so i have to walk an average of 4 miles a night up and down stairs carrying 40+lbs of food/dishes, so if im too sore to do that im SOL on making money to pay the bills. but right now my legs are all bruised to hell still, and you will get bruises every time you learn a new move, for the first few weeks i was getting bruises on the top of my feet cause i was doing alot of fireman spins lol, now my legs are bruised cause im doing more climbing, but i never get bruises on my feet anymore.
I would not suggest wearing any jewelry when dancing cause you can really really hurt yourself. i have nipple rings (sorry if its TMI) and i refuse to take them out cause it hurt so much to get them done, i know i would never be able to get them done again lol, but i wear heavily padded bras, and the one time i smacked my boob into the pole OMG i felt like i was gonna pass out it hurt so bad. so be extremely careful wearing jewelry.
as for body changing, i personally see alot more toning to my body, not abs but more muscle tone, and i smoke like a fiend. i got blisters on my left hand but it wasnt bad lasted like 2 days, mostly callouses, and they dont bother me at all. i didnt pole when i had blisters though cause i didnt wanna make them worse. just make sure you take your time and progress at a rate your comfortable with and be aware of what your body is telling you. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

im bringing me and a girlfriend of mine and we will be staying saturday and sunday night and we are interested in rooming with 2 other ladies to share the cost https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

lol i play wow with the boyfriend, but i will admit he gets upset when i want to pole and not play with him. especially lately, i used to play wow every night and now i just dont feel like it anymore, i prefer watching videos and poling. i still play with him at least once a week, cause if i dont he gets all butt-hurt about it, but i try to save my poling time for when hes at work. im sure my neighbors love hearing me playing on my pole at 3am lol. Hes pretty supportive but hes made it clear hes not interested in pole at all and only watches it and cares because i get so excited about it.
random note though, he actually told me the other night that he didnt want me getting too fit cause then it would make him have to workout more cause he doesnt want his girlfriend to be stronger than him physically….so now i have a goal https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_twisted.gif

lol lulu, your a trip. im not sure when im gonna be headed down there, probably early saturday morning and im hoping my cousin can still make it up from florida, but i also convinced my girl i pole with here to come down with me https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif we gotta find some way to identify us veena-ers though like a goofy hat or something lol https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_viking.gif

yea the issue i was having was with having my lower hand wrist turned too much, i just have to focus on which way my wrist is turned and keep it straight to stop the spinning, and i use my non dom hand ( my right) on bottom i havent tried yet with the other hand, i was trying to but my arms were fatigued cause i waited too long into poling to try it. i actually cant to a CKR or a CAR yet sadly https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif ive been trying to but i am not exactly sure the contact points to do it so ive mostly been bruising my inner thighs trying it, and i have pretty thick thighs so its hard for me to adjust them without just pulling my inner thigh skin lol. im still not sure if im just too afraid to do some moves cause i can decently hold a wrist seat (without legs extended all the way) but i cant do a CAR or even a basic invert yet. i need to relook at how to do them cause i think its about the contact points that im having trouble with, with the car im trying to get my thighs completely lengthwise against the pole so the pole is pushing against the top of my knees, is that too far back though? thanks for the advice https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

UPDATE! ok i tried again last night and i wasnt able to get the full V wrist seat I think because either my hamstrings are too tight or my hip flexors arent strong enough, but anyways, im just working on extending my legs all the way but i was able to control the spinning alot more (it was my bottom hand causing the issue https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif ) but i was able to hold the move with my legs in a sunwheel position https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif so all in all thank you guys for the awesome advice https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

thanks so much for the replies guys https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif im probably gonna give it a go tonight and see what i can do https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

thanks for the reply stellar https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif i have seen people tilt their body slightly so its their thigh resting on their wrist and just didnt even think to try it, as for me trying to not turn, i am trying to get the move down static to make sure i have the right muscle memory to do it and the strength to be able to just hold it. i didnt honestly think about how it would look if i was turning while doing it https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif im hoping to get a day off work soon (ive worked the past 12 days in a row ugh) so i can get the energy to hop back on my pole and give it another go, but i will most definitely try your tips and see if i get a better result https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

ok after looking around the best site i found to check out hotels is definitely expedia, i just threw in hotels near national harbor, DC and it came up with 2 or 3 pages worth. there are a good amount of them that are under 100$ a night, but im not sure on walking distance, they are all just across the river from the gaylord center and i dont know if you would be able to walk it or if you would have to spring for a cab at the end of the nights. ill probably end up staying across the river because they are so much cheaper myself lol https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif hope that helps anyone looking to go to the convention! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

yea i understand getting lost in DC lol, ive been there a bunch of times and barely know my way around, thats why i was gonna look for hotels only a few blocks away so it will be easy walking distance. ill do some research tonight and post what i find in here for anyone interested https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
