I’m sorry you’re injured! Rest and take care, the pole will still be waiting when you’re ready.
I like to lift and pole the same day, not at two different times but one right after the other. However, I don’t do much weight lifting any more, it’s more body weight strength stuff then pole work.
If you follow any of the programs here you’ll find I include strength, stretching and technique work for 30 days. You could start with the 30 day program and see how it might fit in with your schedule. Keep in mind you can’t do everything all the time, there maybe times you do more pole work and other times you focus on strength or flexibility. Listen to your body and go with the flow.

The lesson content is exactly the same, programs and all. The benefit of the website is what Latin mentioned along with having the ability to contact me with questions on any video lesson and I’ll get back to you asap.
The app is a good option if you just wanna learn 🙂

That’s great to hear Legs!!

No there are poles like xpole and lupit that do not require any drilling no damage as long as you use them correctly! These removable poles come with domes that hold it in place as you increase the tension. Home pole dancers have been using this style of pole for what 15 yrs or so. No drilling.
We don’t own a home but and I put poles all over the place, no problem lol. If you do want to invest in a permanent mount (it goes on the ceiling and the top of the pole slides into it instead of using the dome that comes with the pole) it’s easy to patch the few screw holes.
All of my videos are done on this style of pole, I’ve had about 12 poles different sizes, finishes and styles.
Lupit (I’ve not tried this brand but hear good things) https://www.amazon.com/LUPIT-POLE-CLASSIC-STAINLESS-1-65in/dp/B01JM3C6SY

I hope you get it worked out!

The few times I’ve been to pole jams with other dancers I’ve often managed moves I wasn’t able to alone. Then when I go back home it *poof* vanishes…however it does come back when I practice. I’m guessing adrenaline plays a big part when you’re with others. We don’t want to look dumb, we try harder in front of others, we get excited and don’t overthink as much as when we are alone. I was always able to lift heaver and longer when I went to the gym until I got into my own groove of working out at home.

It’s not practical to put it up and down….it’s heavy and can be challenging to get the metal pie pieces to line up. I break a sweat everytime and it takes about 15 to 20 minutes by the time you take things out of bags and such. It’s better to leave it up. Is there a reason you can’t use a removable pole?

If you heard and felt a pop go see a DR or PT.

Can I ask how you liked the pole? Why are you selling 🙂
-
If you over tighten it can bow and then feels funky….I would take it down again and set it back up. Also maybe someone at the party caused the pole to bow if they were spinning wildly on it, I’ve had that happen to my brass. I was so disappointed, it still spins but not like it did.

Here are things that can help the home poler!
Find a good play list of music.
Start one of my programs here, or pick a routine to work on each day.
Follow a challenge (I do IG challenges)
Reward yourself after you finish practice
Make your pole space nice
If you have a short pole work on low pole flow. -
That’s great!!!
