Everything is looking really good!! Keep in mind that for most people pole holds are going to take you about a month or longer to be able to hold yourself for more than a second. It doesn’t look like you’re doing anything wrong. It just takes time to build up strength. I never expect people to be able to do this right away or even within a week. Remember, it’s perfectly acceptable to grip with the knees as well until you become stronger.

Are your wrists feeling better yet?

Hi! It’s called Libelulla I had to search for the name because it’s been ages since I’ve done it.
I would say it’s a high level intermediate or advanced trick because of the flexibility needed and the shoulder rotation required, in addition to the amount of pressure that happens on the arm.
Helpful moves to know for this trick would be, a solid side sit, a side Superman and ballerina. Here’s tutorial I made for you today https://www.studioveena.com/tutorial/libelulla/?current-category=39

Great! Yes please rest up! For now you could try the no pole program if you want to keep training. As long as it doesn’t bother your arms

Unfortunately I can’t see what your wrists and forearms are doing in the video. I wanted to see them because I suspect you’re over or under gripping. That is pulling the hands and writs too far around the pole this creates a lot more strain on the arms.
Here’s are my thoughts:
Looking at the video I think you should still be doing the tap, tap option with one foot and then the other or use between the knees to help hold you. I talk about these options in the pole hold video so if you haven’t watched it thought please do. Pain on skin is normal, but pain anywhere else means a change needs to be made. All of the listed individual videos below the main player should be watched in full. Disregard this if you already have. 🙂
Scapula engagement shouldn’t affect the forearms much and I don’t see your shoulders coming high up to the ears so your scapula look good to me.
When I go to do my workout this morning I’ll take a photo of over gripping so you can see what I mean. I’ll post it here.
Have you even had pain in this area before?

This is a situation where posting a video link of your attempts would be very helpful so I can check your form. It’s not normal.

Hi, before we launched the new site last year we sent out several emails. I posted on all of my social media many times and ask people to share, letting others know that their videos would no longer be available and they would need to come download them. If you did not download them from the other site, they are no longer available.
You can no longer directly upload video or photos here. Link sharing is the way to go now.
However within a discussion post or tutorial comment you can directly upload a photo.
