Webby and/or Veena will you be displaying the SV pole at the Pole Expo in Sept? I'm considering buying a new pole in a few months but would LOVE to feel and see the SV pole first hand before deciding on my next pole!

I'd say go for a Titatinum Gold Xpole 45mm or look into a Studio Veena 45 mm pole it is powder coated 🙂

Side climb I do not like at all, it looks awkward when executed & does not look graceful and I equate poling with strong lines, fluidity and grace. I don't really want to learn that one but probably will but doubt I will execute it often blech. I don't particularily like how the knee hold or teddy look either, I go back and forth about learning them as well. Never liked the chair spin, I never do it, as I have never found a good move to transition into it from.

My dream is to have a 10-12 foot ceiling space to pole in, so I can get some decent combos in, do aerial inverts and not kick the ceiling all the time! I don't think I can go any higher than that though, I am still a little squeamish about going too high on the pole.

Knee tucks I would say try 3 reps of 15-20 2-3x a day each side. Sit ups & push ups 20-25 2-3 x a day. I used to do sit ups and push ups in my office at work 2-3x a day it only takes 1-2 mins. If you have a pull up bar at home do as many as you can in 30 seconds 3-4x a week. It usually takes about 3-4 weeks to see a difference in your strength doing the above consistently.

A little over 7 feet & I hate it. And I’m tall on top of it so i am always kicking the ceiling. I think my low ceiling has held me back on moving on to doing several more advanced moves & you can’t really do combos w/low ceilings either. And I definitely should be climbing better after 3 yrs of poling but with my low ceiling 2 small pull ups & I’m already to the ceiling it bites. Hoping for a higher ceiling on our next home.

Also I concur with the others pole needs to be warmed up well.

Make sure you are hitting all your point of contacts for the move, arching your back & pointing your toes. More often than not the problem is one or more of your poc’s is not in the right position. Post a vid for us too & we can also help you that way.

Chrome is pretty slippery in general but even more so when new…however, it is alot easier to work with when warmed up well, it likes to be babied.

I agree with mummy, if you want to have kids in the near future, I’d definitely wait on the breast lift until AFTER you’ve had all the kids you plan on having. Any form of bodily plastic surgery is a big investment to make just to have it all go to pot once you start having kids because your entire body changes in many ways in pregnancy.

I am always one size larger in boots. I wear a 9-9 1/2 shoe, so I always go up to a 10 or 10 1/2 in boots but it depends if your foot is wide or narrow & on the cut of the boot–a boot thats wide in the toe, I can do a 10. If it is a boot that has a pointy or narrow toe, I get a 10 1/2 because I have long foot, yet I’m wide in the toe region.

You & your family are in my thoughts daily…xxoo

I think with your height & skinny thighs 45 mm would be best bet

Sounds like you have a great regimen already to me! I need some structure like this!
