Yeah, as long as you place it properly you should be fine. The first time I set up my X-Pole, I didn't have it under a stud, and sure enough, my ceiling cracked. After that I was a lot more careful, and I haven't had any problems since.

Wow, you ROCK! That is AWESOME! Any training tips for the rest of us mortals?

I just checked out the website, and it's kind of making me drool! Thanks for the tip. I don't think I can afford it right now, but I'll keep it in mind. I can't be broke forever, right? 🙂

@StudioVeena – Yes, I've been going into it from a flatline, but flexibility is definitely an issue with me, so I'll have to work on that. Also, what town are you from in ND? I remember it was a small one, but I don't remember where. (I actually met you at the Total Woman 2nd Anniversary event 🙂 )
@Charley – Did you enter it from a chopper to scorpio? That might be easier, since it looks like there's less twisting, and that's what's killing me. Also, for someone who claims to not be very flexible, and not very good at allegra, this looked pretty smooth to me.
@pegasusaerialfitness – I can't believe how many people seem to have trouble with this. My mom broke her rib once, and it definitely did not seem fun. It hurts and takes forever to heal, so it's not something to mess around with.

Thanks for the responses everyone!
My heart goes out to you, Saphyre. I would NOT be happy if I had to stay off the pole for five weeks! Good luck with your recovery, and I hope you get well soon.
LiveOnce, thanks for the tip. That's probably what I was doing wrong; I think the pole was pressing on my ribs. I think I'll take some time off from this move, but I'll careful about that when I try it again. My torso is long enough where it shouldn't be a problem; I think I was just being sloppy when I tried it before.

I was in sort of the same situation; I was basically eating healthy, but the stress of my job would make me start craving sweets. I started chewing gum, and that seemed to help. You get flavor and something to put in your mouth, and it can help tide you over to your next meal. I especially like the Extra dessert flavors like mint chocolate chip.
