Hi IS! I'm trying to remember what I did last week. I think it's almost the same as what Kitty Cat described. Practiced on Monday and Wednesday – freestyle to warm up, light stretching, then running the routine as many times as I could before the form started to go. On Wednesday, that was three times in a row.
Thursday was a rest day, Friday I did a few skills at the competition location at the competitor meeting – tried not to push it. Saturday was the comp and danced and stretched quite a backstage before going on. Hope this helps!

I'm 80% paleo most of the time – I do love the occasional post workout cheat meal, though. 🙂 But I adore it. Have lost a TON of weight this way. Highly recommended! 🙂

Oh, and also, thank you everyone for the tips and vids… Got Rocketwoman and yogini. I think Rocketman is going to take some time… But good start!

OK – I hope this isn't silly – but how do you deal with deodorant residue? I am practicing right now and find I am constantly cleaning off the pole – I admittedly did just put some on right before this practice, so i am hoping it won't continue to be an issue if I apply well in advance. I just don't want to make the pole slick in the middle of a routine!

Thank you chumpchkin – Good tips! I favorited your Rocketwoman video when you posted it, so I can use that as a reference, too. 🙂

I'll post here, too:
I put all my old entries in it, so I could have them in one place, but those are mostly for me. The new content is partially personal and partially articles and videos and so on.

Hi guys – some shameless self-promotion:
This is the first week I'm posting real content to my blog, i.e. articles in addition to just journal entries. The URL is above.
I am hoping to post content 3 – 5x a week.
I haven't had time to pole-i-fy the theme yet, though, do it doesn't quite look like a pole blog. But I swear it is! 🙂 Enjoy!

I didn't do a great job describing to my husband how to take the pics so I'll make sur ethey are more side on next time.

I think, when you're working on a trick and really in a fitness mode, there can be a time when pole isn't that sexy. I definitely consider it a sport workout about 80 – 90% of the time. My hubs and I talk about pole usually in the same conversations we have about his jiu jitsu practices – it's comparing sport progress…
But sometimes, usually after a few cocktails… he makes a playlist, and I put on something skimpy, and we have a *different* kind of pole session. And my brain is in a totally different space. And so is his.
The two are completely separate – with the former he's supportive but relatively uninvolved… and with the latter, well… he really likes it (and so do I.) https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif
I know it's not like this for everyone, but this is how it works for me; sometimes giving a performance for your S.O., and not thinking about tricks or form or anything but just finding your inner sex goddess can help get them involved… Just my two cents.

This is awesome – I wanted to wait until everything was official — but I saw PoleFitMom's submission, like, the day before I posted mine and I was like, "WHOA!!! Check out that control!!"
And of course Charley is one of my heroes… so making alternate was such an awesome surprise!!! I can't believe I even got CLOSE to you guys!! Congrats, go Veeners!!! *booty dance*
Also, the feedback was very nice. It was either positive, or things I saw coming ("work on your flexibility" – yup, already on it!!), so it made me feel like I am pretty realistic and perhaps even a little harsh in my self assessment.
Great comp so far!!
