    Ok after posting earlier that I haven’t stretched once, I thought ill check where I am already. Right leg forward, left back 7 inches to go and that’s COLD, pretty pleased with that! Left leg forward is more like 15 inches away and box is no where near measuring!

    Follow your gut instinct- it’s rarely wrong. Every bloke I have been with I have known from the off if its going to ultimately work out in the LONG term. That’s not to say that I dumped them straight away but I did listen to the little voice when it all got silly that said ‘sack it off as a bad job’ it hurts but you get over it.
    I’m not saying get rid-I’m saying follow your gut instinct, whatever that is- It’s right!! Sometimes you really have to concentrate to hear it, but it’s there x

    Great thread. I love to show off my pole stuff to males or females I don’t care 🙂 but what really erks me is when ppl who have never touched a pole, start to make comments about how you can improve, then I’m like ‘really, you’re going there?!’ Usually that’s when I invite them to try a pull up…..hah!

    My wobbly bits are my luv handles. The only good thing is that they are more stream lined since starting poling. I have lost inches but I don’t think it’s through fat loss as its still all there to pinch!!
    I have also noticed that since my abs are firmer my belly fat is more prominent. I think all the muscle is pushing the fat out haha!!

    Oh can I just say, the pics I saw we’re not pole related-no pole in site, which i guess contributed to why I was suprised. I expect to see sexy pole dancing, I didn’t expect to see just sexy pictures.
    I’m not judging anyone, I was just suprised. I’m very wary of what I post on SV for reasons that other threads discuss (pole interfering with professional life etc) and I just thought, ‘oooo don’t know if that’s a good idea?’
    I think hooked on pole explains it very well. X

    I had a similar experience recently on this site. I was mooching through a profile and came across what I considered overtly ‘sexual’ or ‘seductive’ poses. I felt it was unnecessary. There was no nudity however. It’s fine to post pics of yourself like that but perhaps it might be best to limit them to people you ‘know’ – esp when you consider that ANYONE can access those pics. Personally it just wasn’t what I expected to see here being that this a pole dancing site not poseprovocatively.com! And I am by no means prude. It was just unexpected!

    This will be my feb challenge…when I get the internet I plan on getting Veenas lessons and starting right from scratch on my non dominant side. I have mastered the chopper so far and an aerial invert on my non dom but cant do the basics, how bizzare?

    My pole instructor drills us on the warm up from day 1, but she is VERY motivational aswel as hardcore, I love this beefy warm up as it really gets me pumped for pole. It includes, squats, core work, push ups, pull ups on the pole. Now I do this warm up at home every time I pole, even when I’m knackered because I know it gets me really good and warm. She taught us well. We now use weights in the warm up too.
    We also started with a routine from day go (4 weeks routine, 1 week just tricks) I like this because it gives your lessons a purpose. If you aren’t feeling good about a move you can practice the routine instead.
    We don’t do ‘sexy’ style it’s more dance. I prefer that, ESP when I started as I felt like a prat doing even the body rolls..now the class and instructor are familiar we can ask for different styles.

  • Ah that’s a shame! 🙁 x

  • Hey pole gal, I can’t do anything online as I don’t have the net at home, BUT, have you seen the pole jam event in Manchester on 17th Nov??
