As others have mentioned, you can’t outrun a bad diet. If you’re interested in losing fat you have to be in a caloric deficit.
I was a calorie counting junkie for years and lead to way too much yo-yo dieting. Eventually I just shelled out for a registered dietician that taught me portion control and curtailed my nutrition around my sedintary job but very active personal life. I feel a lot healthier now and way more energy and none of the calorie counting guilt.
Portion control is huuuge and making the right decisions on food is even bigger.
Personally I have not lost any weight or fat from pole alone (Though my upper body is totally jacked now!) It’s all come from being mindful of my diet and my body shape representing my good and bad choices lol.

I have pole at Home problems in general lol
But are you going all out in class then going home and immediately poling again? If so, perhaps you’re just spent from working out already and your body has had too much time to cool down. It might just be too much for one day. I know once I’ve cooled down from pole on the drive home it’s almost impossible to get going again without at least a day break. Pole isn’t easy on the body- not like going for a jog or anything lol.

Maybe try again at home the next day after a rest or just take the video in your studio while you’re still warm.

Thanks everyone!
I was just feeling pretty down about it with comp season coming up! I’m glad I’m not alone with feeling slightly useless at home lol!
I’m also Canadian and winter pole is it’s own beast of burden around these parts.

But thanks so much for your help and support
