I sit on a stability ball in my cubicle. It doesn’t add much strength or burn extra calories. It offers a cushy place for my bum, forces me to improve posture, and when my back and shoulders feel tight I just lie back for a good stretch.
I agree with the stationary bike. I like Schwinn Airdynes.. the older the better. They are tanks and can take a beating, and you probably could find a cheap one on craiglist

Veena’s stretching routines helped me a lot. She counts for you, which keeps in the stretch longer than I would normally.

i am SO interesting in the omni yoga swing, but I can’t find any information about it. I just want the sling.. how would I hang it, how high to my ceilings need to be? Do I have to buy a mount?
-
Ooooo… tell me more! Will I get flexy using this? Do I need all the straps and handles, or will just the swing work? How would I hang it?

You ladies didn’t miss much. The audio had about a 30 sec lag and it kept cutting in and out. The videos Bad Kitty posted on fb were much better quality.

I saw! Your pirouettes were beautiful. It’s hard for me to pick my favorite 15 secs to post 😉

Yay!! Can’t wait to see your dances

I ran into that problem recently. What we ended up doing was trimming the video to 15 seconds, then emailing it. Save video from email, then upload to IG. Frustrating that IG doesn’t work from a computer!!

I just saw you started following me! I hope that means you figured it out!! If you seach for the hashtag #flowin52 you will find the vidoes Paige and I uploaded. When you post your clip, just put #flowin52 in the comments so we can find it and like it!

OMG Emnemz your blog is amazing! I love that you combined pole + paleo, my two passions!

Disclaimer: I am a die hard Paleohead. It works for me.
Regarding bacon — treat it as a garnish, not your main source of protein. It must be uncured, sugar-free if you can find it.
You should be eating 1-2 palms of protein per meal. Unfortunately, legumes and grains have proteins that cannot be processed by the body. They are a sub-par choice.
Protein shakes should be used in emergencies only. They are ultra-processed and do not offer the body anything that “real” food cannot.
Please check out Whole30.com or MarksDailyApple.com if you want to learn more about Paleo. It sounds like it could do wonders for your migraines.

From personal experience, the paleo diet has changed my life. It ends up being “low carb” simply due to the fact that we do not eat grains or sugars. I do not count calories, track fitness minutes, freak out over my carb counts. I simply eat moderate amounts of meat, lots of fat, and tons of vegetables. I’m in the best shape of my life.

Uggghhh… I guess my last reply didn’t save?? Sorry if this is duplicate.
What helped me find my flow was filming freestyles. With the camera on, I couldn’t just walk away from the pole. It’s almost like being on stage, you must perform and keep dancing no matter how awkward that last move was. Yes, it creepy watching the playback, but after a while you’ll start to see your own unique style develop.
My friend and I are doing the #flowin52 challenge on Instagram. Each week of 2014, we’ll record a freestyle and post a clip of it for accountability. At the end of 52 weeks, we’ll look back on our dances and see how we’ve grown. You’re welcome to join us!

Hi! I started poling in June and got pretty serious about it quickly. I would say I’m intermediate level now. Each week I pole for about 4 hours, stretch cumulatively about an hour, yoga 1 hour, crossfit 1 hour, and lifting about 2 hours. I try to do something active every day.
