Everyone knows that big muscles are not the sign of absolute health. Restorative function of internal organs, detoxifying function of liver, digestive and absorptive ability of intestinal tract play the most important role in how you will perform on daily basis. The quality of proteins ingested though should be in amount that needed, in density that will support high caloric output by the body. The most nutritionally sound proteins unfortunately come from the animal sources. I was vegan for 6 years and vegetarian for 16 years within the same period of time. My pole progress needed more then I was getting. Not in amount of protein but the quality of it and density. My main protein source is food. I also abide by the rule that your have to replenish on hi protein intake after workout within 20 minutes. I try if I can to prepare a hi protein meal, sometimes I have it prepared ahead of a time. In my family we all exercise and do sports so we take care of each other. So if it’s my time to workout my hubby will throw something together and he knows nutritional requirements. But if Im alone and nothing ready or travelling my protein shake is UltraInflamX plus360 by Metagenics. Its based on rice protein and no digestive issues. But it is expensive even at the practitioners cost it’s a “fancy stuff” I rather have a meal

I love inverting in my fly gym. It will decompress your back for any inverted injury on a pole. If I over do it I spend a lot of time inverted in my fly gym and love it soooo much. And flexibility so friendly and gentle.
I even sleep or rest there sometimes -

I have pleasers in sandals and boots same size. Boots work well with a nylon short socks underneath or thin athletic socks for runners that weak the moisture. -
Wow looks very good.
Thank you soooo much for giving me ideas i will try to look into a ponytail too. As long as it secure and doesn’t fall off during dance
Thanx again -

were your extensions clip-on or permanent?
I cut myself the dead ends. My hair is like… you know cartoon “Brave”? it’s like that irregular curl and a little disorganized so cutting it is not visibly significant change. No one can tell if it’s straight or not. But growing is very difficult because it curls and jumps up. So when I pull my hair it’s already way below my shoulder but it scrunches up into a medium length because it’s not long enough to fall on my back. So may be in 9 months I will get it back. Right now Im happy it’s stopped falling off like it used to -
And Im stuck trying to grow my hair because I damaged it by using curling iron over a period of a year. All my ends are gone and mid length is braking off. It’s just so sad. Hair flips were always the part of my dance and now there is nothing to flip just rat tails. I still do it but it looks funny because my hair doesn’t follow the flow anymore. I tried a wig and its not comfortable and extensions are not conceivable they damage your hair even more

I also think that climate in your area helps the issue with chrome being grippier.
Chrome works in clubs very good. Especially when packed
I like cold chrome for spins especially when tired of tricks and want to switch the energy -
I also tried 40, 45, 50
A year and a half ago I came to pole with chicken legs but the more I exercised and stretched and twirked with the time my muscles became more supple and firm and I never had problems on any sizes with sits or CA or CK release, planks or Sleeping Beauty, elbow embrace etc. But I always learn on brass. I stick to it no problem. And it made me comfortable with chrome also but I have to use more of a grip aid and a special lotion on my body working on chrome for my own security -
Yes and that what I read on her page now as well. But I followed her for a few years and listened to many interviews she’s given. In one of them she was asked a question about her parents opinion on choosing pole dance instead of ballet because she went to ballet school to be a ballerina. She answered that it was difficult for them to accept at first but after all the skill carried her in to fame.
If you look at her feet you get it right away. It takes years of training to be so natural.
Whatever she advertises now its her label and her achievements to back it up. So it’s her’s and managers decision to represent herself in the most beneficial light in terms of her business. May be reference to ballet is taking it away from what she has done for pole…? But she truly transformed the pole for many and was able to translate it into a pure form of art -
I draw my inspirations from this one

If you have space for both keep chrome for spins and get brass for tricks. Whatever you will learn on brass and do it well you will be able to perform on chrome as well. I feel brass is just a friendlier pole

Very interested
Presently practicing on a stone (travatine) floor and already got used to shoulder rolls and other floor work in general but hardwood would be so much nicer -

I’ve been experiencing the same thing 5 months ago. You are over thinking it. Your body already done it so its in a muscle memory. Now think of your stomach muscles curling into a ball and when you lift yourself don’t go all the way up but hold urself and lower with control. Cant do straight legs right away. Do from a tuck position. Then one leg straight and one tucked. Will look discent just point your toes. Then think of a helicopter move from shoulder mount but use Veena’s grip. Watch for your collar bone. Don’t overdo it
Pretty soon it will became your favourite. -

Medications such as Proventil (Ventolin) is a bronchodialator, also epinephrine shots when used as prescribed at the time when needed shouldn’t be the cause of it. Both of these leave you system pretty quick without residual side effect over time. Its more of the habitual use of caffeine products not only coffee but soft drinks as well and sports nutrition and supplements even weight loss products. Watch for those. Seeing a doctor especially specialists is always a good idea. May be ask for referral to see physiotherapist for massage as well. But doing your own part by taking magnesium supplement is a good start. There is this particular Electrolyte Hydrator from Vega Sport has very good balanced mineral content including magnesium. It comes in raspberry flavour but taste still horrible. if you can tolerate the taste use 1-2 packets a day. You can take tablets as well up to 500mg a day but liquid form is more absorbable -

This condition that you described is associated with spontaneous depolarization of the motor neurones that supply muscle tissues, could be skeletal or even main organ muscles such as cardiac.
Majority of causes are benign. For example, slight insufficiency of magnesium that cannot be determined by electrolytes test could hardly be the answer but combined with large amount of caffeine, caffeine hidden products under the name guarana, mate, anti-cellulite creams etc. could be enough to cause it. Also use of over the counter sleeping aid, anti-nauseants, various stimulants in natural products such as bitter orange or orange peel… watch for those. Some medications also have tendency to deplete or disturb the mineral balance.
When exercise we all lose magnesium usually replenish proteins but not everyone takes Magnesium enough. Everyone especially athletes should maintain their magnesium balance. Do not take it on an empty stomach or in excess bc it will cause diarrhea.
Stress and anxiety should be reduced to a minimum.
If you are the type to experience this on a pole your warmup should be a sufficient one with intense stretches for splits at least 30-45 min before you approach the pole. Get foam rollers, rollers with ridges and follow Veena’s preps for splits.
Yoga is of a great benefit to this condition especially poses sitting and standing pike, standing bow and eagle.
