MemberFebruary 14, 2015 at 9:06 am in reply to: Has anyone used muscle stimulator devices for strength training?Muscle simulators? To my best knowledge they are not much for actual strengthening but more for people who are coming out of long periods of inactivity. I have never read anywhere where they are used by able bodied people nor do I believe that they will have any benefit. An electrical impulse will never take the place of actual strength training. If it did we would all be lazy sitting on our asses and have rock hard bodies.

I think you will find that pole can and will replace much of your weight lifting. You can still use it to help build your strength but you really don’t *need* both. The yoga will help with balance and flexibility so I would keep that. Also, be careful that you do not over work yourself as that can be detrimental. You will find that most people only pole a few times or maybe even once a week.

There are also several people in the RTP area that have them. They have a FB page where you can post and see if anyone will let you try theirs. The Aradia North Carolina is the one you want to post in.

The owner of my studio Dakota Fox is there right now. From the stuff I have read on the discussion group about this (https://www.facebook.com/events/716968355067016/) the organizer has had all sorts of issues. Many people spoke out last year about it and she went after many of them. Supposedly the organizer is “sick and in the hospital” but there are quite a few doubts about this. One person being sick should not shut down a huge event like this.

MemberJanuary 26, 2015 at 7:58 pm in reply to: How to find stud in ceiling for removable poleSo if you look at your ceiling at an angle you will see seams (There is not a single drywaller that is good enough to make a perfectly flat ceiling). Those seams are where 2 pieces of drywall come together and they are nailed into the joist. That is one of the easiest ways to find joists. But really, stud finders are only about $20.

It looks like that was just attached with glue? Yeah, I would not feel safe on that even doing a spin! It was definitely NOT made for anything more than posing.

MemberJanuary 21, 2015 at 5:32 am in reply to: Looking to buy a X-Stage (Spin/Static) PoleSadly cannot help too much. A new is in the $700 range and used are going to be about $5-600. Have you asked if you can get the studio discount if you order through the studio? Typically they get 10-20% off the retail price. That may be an option.

Check out ice skating skirts. They are short enough and flowy. You may also like some of the running skorts or cheerleading skorts. Also, once Target gets their summer stock in they have a lot of really cute bathing suit bottoms with skirts.
