I agree with veena. I don’t consider it a "spin" if you’re not doing the spinning. LOL

Welcome to the site! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Ok, I’m in.

I have one main goal and that is to get rid of the Budda belly. I bitch and bitch and bitch about it, yet I don’t do ab work enough because I hate it. I need to quit the fussin and get to work. I want to lose at least 5 inches from my stomach before bikini season and if I can get like a 1 pack or something, that’d be nice too. LOL

Current measurment Waist 29.5 inches
Belly Pouch (in fully relaxed state) 33 inches.

I will do ab work every other day. That’s my goal.
I will also decrease my daily wine intake https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif
I will eat more fruit and veggies and add more protien to my diet.
I will workout 5 days a week.
I will pole at least 3 times a week.

Pole Goals

Perfect straight edge and Aysha
Get a good caterpillar climb
Get a superman and a knee hold
Work on the floor at least once a week
Get aerial Shoulder Mount
Work on scorpio
Work on inverting on both sides
Work on side climbing

And of course get that dredded Cross Ankle Release! You will be mine!

Sissy, I wanna cry!!!
Lucky you girl! My husband is NOT like yours at all, he secretly hates what I do, he doesn’t want the pole in the house, and I end up going to the garage (frizzing https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif ).
I say you are very very lucky to have a man like yours to support you and your passion https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

Kiss

Hi Pipa,
Reggie used to be a pole hater too so I totally feel your pain. I would have to sneak and say I was going to the gym when I wanted to take classes, or go during my lunchbreak at work because he would always give me a hard time about it if he knew I was going.

I think starting a progress thread would be a great idea. I’ve just done week 1 of the p90x, loving the excersice but I’m having trouble trying to eat better. I have no will power!! x

Here’s a tip you might want to try to eat better…bodybuilders, figure, and fitness competitors prepare all their meals ahead. They portion them out to re-heat throughout the day as well as their snacks. I have been doing this for a year now for my training…it gets easier after the 1st wk because your body becomes used to it….I eat every 3 hours…by keeping yourself "unhungry" (is that a word?! LOL) you don’t crave the bad carbs because your blood sugar stays level…..that’s what causes you to crave the simple sugars, sweets etc. I have not had those craving for a long time so it’s not a struggle for me. It is the way our bodies were meant to work…to keep your metabolism burning high you need to fuel it consistently…it will feed your muscle to burn the fat. I’m sooo proud of you ladies for choosing better health habits…you guys ROCK!!!

p.s Always eat something after working out/exercising that has protein and you can add a simple carb…piece of fruit or a handful of cold cereal…that’s when your body needs the simple carbs the most!

Lilbit you’re my "body role model"!!!! LOL I wanna look just like you when I grow up!

I eat often too to avoid getting hungry because when I get hungry I’ll eat whatever is in site, and lot’s of it!

You can try inverting on tippy toes first. Don’t cheat and put your heel down, stay up on your toes. Its harder to invert with heels because your balance is a bit off and you can’t cheat and jump as easily and of course your leg line is longer….Just keep at it and you’ll get it. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif

I am gonna have to try that tonight at the studio.

I want to see a vid to see what kind of problems you’re having with the shoes. I never realized wearing shoes made it harder.

[SissyBuns]

If you’ve already taken a day of rest and it’s just muscle soreness that you feel and not an actual injury you should be okay to go for it. It might even help.

I’m no personal trainer though, so we’ll have to see what the Pros say. LOL

[SissyBuns]

You shouldn’t be allowed at these types of competitions Karol. It’s just not fair to the humans. LOL

[SissyBuns]

We shoudl start a P90x /Insanity thread so people who are doing the programs can compare their stats and motivate eachother.

[SissyBuns]

How about a challenge where you do everything on your weaker side? I did this as a challenge for myself a few months ago and BOY WAS IT A CHALLENGE! not only physically, but mentally as well! I caught myself standing there thinking, okay, wait, how do I do this the opposite way?? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif LOL like doing the pirouettes doing to the right instead of the left for me was quite the mental challenge!

If I did that challenge I would look like I was on pole day #1. LOL

[SissyBuns]

Well its my first time in NYC too, so I plan on just getting lost and having to sleep outside in a box or something https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif I’ll give you a piggyback ride Sissy if you need it. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif I’m super excited about my workshop but HATING the travel alone factor…… https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_pale.gif

Cool. Can you pick me up at my hotel and drive me to the theatre? LOL

Are you going to the competition V?

sissy, you’re staying on 101st and bway or something right? or are you at 94th and bway?

94th and Broadway https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

[SissyBuns]
