I can still get on here from work but most other sites I cannot.
Time to get a droid.

I call it Charley’s Jade because you are the only person I have seen do it…(and I plan on trying to steal it).

On the Russians you really need a pillow or something cushy under your knees.

Talk to the trainer you have been working with. After each and every session working out STRETCH. -

MemberMay 26, 2010 at 4:46 pm in reply to: X-Pole X-pert XX or Platnium Stages Extreme?PS has been having all sorts of quality issues lately and from my experience their customer service SUCKS. PS is also stainless, not chrome. However, I really like that Star Standalone that PS has out now, but again it is not without issues.
I know a few people have been having some problems with the new Xperts but I believe that XPole is trying to get things fixed as soon as humanly possible.
That being said, if I had to choose between the two you have listed I would go with XPole. (Oh, and I would buy it through House of Pole….hint hint).

1. Detoxing will bring out all sorts of nasty sides. I have not looked into this system but even going from "normal" eating to clean eating some people experience this. It is your body trying to purge toxins.
2. I would have to look at the ingredient list but there is a good possibility that the chemicals in it are making you have cravings.
3. I don’t put stock in any of this stuff. You could eat raw/clean for a week and do the same but much cheaper and HEALTHIER.

I was trying to adjust my grip to see how wrist burn would happen, and I couldn’t even get it intentionally https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif
If you hold your hand even up in the air like you would normally grip your pole…now twist your pinky toward your chest….that is how you would have to hold the pole. You can even feel the strain without trying to hold your weight.

You SHOULD NOT get wrist burn. That is an indication of twisting your wrist and is improper form (which will lead to issues). If you are not getting it you are gripping correctly! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

There is another one but I cannot even do it. It helps to have someone hold your ankles when you do it but if you do not have someone you can lock your ankles under something that will hold your weight (a low bar or something). In a kneeling position what you want to do is lower your body to the ground keeping your core straight and then lift yourself back up. When your hams are really strong you can get all the way to the floor and then back up. Typically your hands will be behind your head but when starting out you may want them to keep you from crashing into the floor.
This will give you an idea of the move:

There are 2 threads going here that have good info:
Official Splits Progress Thread
In the resistance stretching thread there are a few other links and reviews of other methods. I believe towards the last pages there is a link for Splits in 6 weeks.

wow this thread just caught my eye. I’m so sorry to hear about the last of support from the husbands and boyfriends out there. Reminds me of my x boyfriend anything I was into was stupid and silly. I thank my lucky stars everyday that my man is my biggest fan, no matter what I’m doing.
I had a comment here but I will be a good girl. Yes, you are lucky as is he. -
At least you realized didn’t just take her at her word and start teaching her inverts (I know you wouldn’t anyway but know some that would have!!)

Momma, how old are you?
It may be worth investing in some quality fish oil or even msm/glucosamine and see if that helps at all.
