Day 6 take off done.
Will do abs at end of day when I do evening stretches. -
Day 5 take off and abs done, fitted some of it into pole jam and did the rest when I got home. Let myself off the rows because went a bit crazy doing gemini handstands at the studio.

You know, pretty much every person I know who pushes her or himself to master pole does it for themselves alone. They might start off saying they’d like to please their significant other (or men generally( but the ones who love it, who stick with it, who make an effort with it and do it in their spare time do it because it pleases them, as Phoenix says. You’re not alone. You’re not weird.
You’re a poler!
🙂 -
P.s: I get the same reaction off friends ‘ooh bet your husband loves it!’ Especially as pole is in bedroom (along with bar bells, weight bench, basically our bedroom is like a fitness studio with a bed in it, not a boudoir. Although I do have nice disco lights now).
For him, watching me pole is like watching me do ballet barre warm up or Pilates crunches or weights or chin ups: quite cool but not, you know, the stuff of a hot evening in.
I recommend low lights, nice knickers, sexy tune, bad ass heels and some rolling about showing off your ass whilst making hot eye contact and him sitting in a chair with a drink, not allowed to touch til you say so. That covers
most husband’s definition of a good night indoors with the wife. -
Could it be that your friends have the rather stereotyped and inaccurate view that pole dancing is just to please men and consists of stripper bumping and grinding, and don’t realise that it’s a gymnastic and exhausting fitness discipline/aerial art form/strengthening challenge etc etc? If they think it’s just sexy strutting they might not understand why you wouldn’t feel comfortable sharing?
My husband is v supportive and impressed by my pole stuff (good job as I am obsessed and train a lot!) but doesn’t find it sexy. Veena’s Lap lessons were a big hit but no pole was used – just me slinking about in nice undies lol!

I see that pole sit Cazz! Nice!
Day 4 legs/feet stuff done despite sabotaging efforts of my 3 year old, also did very hardcore acro pole class so am bit knackered and was feet relieved it was ab rest day and 30 day take off rejuvenation day! -
Enjoy the second trimester! I remember I went from exhausted bloated spotty bleurgh to radiant energised feeling amazing with my boy and yes, the sore boobs, nausea, tiredness, worry all went away like magic! Hoping you have as good a time! So pleased for you 🙂

Well done!
Go ladies!
(Shakes pom poms, points toes, clenches abs with neutral scapula) -
Don’t worry – yesterday was a rest day with just hand and forearm exercises and toe pointing! You’ve not missed out and you can easily do day 2 straight after day 3, plus the abs are very quick if you are doing that and can be slotted into 6 minutes, no need to warm up.
Missing one day doesn’t mean setting fire to the whole thing! Just pop it back in whenever.
Right, off to do day 3… -
Day 2 and day 2 abs done.
Nice easy day! -
Thinking of you.

Edit: the lessons of the day are thumbnails under the lesson you’re watching. At least on iPad or iPhone they are.

You watch the vid explaining the 30 day thing then look underneath where it says ‘next lesson’
It should be on your home page (unless you selected ‘hide 30 days’ previously)
https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/50d407f6-6738-46d9-bca7-32260ac37250 here it is if you can’t see it.Once you click next lesson you get Day 1
Here it is https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/50c8b3e9-73f4-4b88-99a6-6f640ac37250
You go through all the lessons which are Veena intro, basic warm up, forward/back scapula, pole squats, leg lifts, lunges, leg hook side crunch, butterfly stretch, pike stretch, lying thigh stretch.
Then it should load day 2 when you click next lesson. -
Hello
I found this site very helpful.

If concerned go see your OB/GYN or local hospital for monitoring baby and go in straight away – they would always rather reassure a pregnant woman by a simple monitoring than not. Good luck, thinking of you and little one. -
Here you go
