Ahh yes, heat would help. Didn’t think about that! That and ibuprofen! Actually I have found rest to be very beneficial, although I really want to crack that damn butterfly.
Also I have decided to really try and loose those last 2kg to get back to pre baby weight. I think that will help too. -
Where is it held?

Ohh, I think I may try this one. Was too shy for the May challenge!

Thanks for that Veena. I have been trying every other day or so. No wonder I’m feeling it. You’re right, it’s muscular and weakness sore, not anything worrying. I will use the foam roller more and cut back on practicing. I really do find my aches and pains are increased just before my period. I see a physio for my hips/pelvis and I mentioned it to him, and he agrees it could be hormonal. I wonder if next week my arms, along with my pelvis won’t be so sore?

The mind boggles!

Aww that’s fantastic! Well all of my children love the pole and take turns to mess about on it, so much so I have to steam off their sticky prints every time I use it. I’m sure they would love this!
My husband got quite excited when he glanced over my shoulder and thought I was looking up bondage! Fun for all the family it seems….. I feel another Christmas wish list coming on! -
Argh, I want one now. Coming and chatting on this forum is bad for my bank account! I guess I would need to keep young children away from it?

Really? So do you still practice at home? What’s needed for a home setup? You should think about becoming an instructor and setting up a class locally…

Have you tried steam cleaning your pole? Also I love a bit of mighty grip on slippy days although it makes a mess of the pole!

Thanks for your help portableninja, I'm just about to put in my order. I've actually just started noticing that a lot of Veena's lessons are done on what looks like the TG, in particular the ones that need more grip. I'm sold!
I actually took a peek at your videos and it actually looks really nice, as does your plum coloured top with the tie at the back. Can I ask where you bought that? I have large breasts and if I wear a bikini when dancing they look like they may fall out when inverted!
For some reason I just can't gather the confidence to try butterfly, maybe the new pole will help me with that.
Also, do I steam clean it the same as I have done with the stainless steel? I am def removing my wedding ring for all practicing on this one, as I have scratched my 50mm.

Thanks girls, that’s great. I don’t think brass is for me, I don’t see myself getting the brasso out every month!
I agree I think the 45 over the 40 mm. I still intend to keep my 50. As for the steel I have noting to compare it to but I find it hard to warm up sometimes and I still can’t do tricks on it without grip aid, so I find it slippy but that could just be me and my lack of experience.
I think I may be convinced on the TG! Just wish it came in Titanium silver as gold just won’t go with the rest of my house. Thanks again! -
Wow, that is all so helpful thanks! My current pole is stainless steel 50mm. My fingers don't come anywhere close to meeting. I'll try and post a photo.
I'm 5'6" (168cm), slim but my thighs defiantly meet. I have dry skin mostly and I live in London so it's cold and wet most of the time although summer can be fairly humid.
My thighs are 19inches at the biggest diameter and my hand spam is 8inches.

Do you want to have children at some point? If so maybe something to consider as your breasts go through changes during pregnancy and breast feeding. You may be very happy with the results from surgery only for them to change again after children. Also sometimes due to this kind of surgery you may not be able to breast feed at all as mostly the nipple is repositioned, damaging milk ducts. Wouldn’t harm getting expert advice from a consultation though 🙂

We’re all still thinking of you. I am very much loooking forward to the beautiful and heartfelt dance in his memory that I’m sure is to come. X
