Thank youuuu 🙃🙃🙃

Thank you Espi 🥰🥰🥰

Finalllly I'm back doing challenges

Literally the same, for my home chrome when it's cold I use itac for my knee, elbows, other crevices and monkey hands either sticky or gluey depending on how much stick I need. You can borrow mine before you buy if you want

Yasssss I screamed for you!!! Such a huge win 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Hi everyone!!! I'm proud of my immune system for finally deciding to stop attacking my body this week so I could get back to poling 🙄I'm also proud that I did a cup grip handspring and tried to do a phoenix when I usually avoid strength moves 🙃

Your positioning when sitting on the floor is correct! You just need to do the same positioning when standing. When standing you are starting with your feet and back too close to the pole which puts your shoulder in the wrong position and your hands too high which makes the arm too straight like you said and makes it much harder to get your legs in the air. If you notice on the floor your shoulder and back start in a nice straight line and your arms are in a strong bent position which sets you up nicely. I'm certain if you start in this position while standing you will be able to have the exact same results as when you are sitting because you have the correct technique!

I feel this Espiiii! I'm in a flare and I've been moping bc I haven't been able to pole much either and sad about missing the challenges the last few weeks ☹️

It really depends on what you mean by "pole" 2 days in a row. I would say if a move is brand new and/or super advanced for me I do not work on it 2 days in a row because then I'm usually too sore to do much else the rest of the week. It also puts you at risk for injury since you're working passed your capacity level to try and learn a new hard move so you risk overuse injuries. However if it's my standard level of training, I will do classes multiple days in a row or even multiple classes in a row. For me personally I can't do something like a needle/eagle multiple days in a row bc I will be too sore to do much else the rest of the week. But I could stick my leg behind my head every day of the week without intense stretching and be fine. I think each person has their own unique spectrum of comfort vs full capacity for training so the advice was probably meant to be don't push yourself passed your full capacity 2 days in a row or you're at risk for overuse injury.

I want your ceilings 😩😩😩
