Depends on what you mean by light poling. Pregnancy isn’t the best time to start something you’re body is unfamiliar with, continuing while pregnant is different, yet for myself I did alter how and what I did as pregnancy progressed.
There are several threads here if you do a search, also you might want to check out the Veena Method curriculum I have created as it talked about poling and pregnancy. https://stage.studioveena.com/methods/letter

It’s really important if you’re very tight to use the options either shown or written to make a stretch less intense. There is no reason to expect your stretches to look like mine or anyone else for that matter. 🙂

Along with this challenge I’ll be posting roughly 14 new Quick Lessons as well. 🙂

I’ve toyed with the idea, however, I don’t belive there should be an expectation as to when to invert and such, so moving past beginner moves is challenging in that respect. The Take off program teaches the absolute fundamentals and moving past that point is such a personal thing.
There may be an option for me to do programs/routines to help one achive things like inverts and such.

In the lessons I give you some tips on diet for both strength and flexibility! One of the easiest things you can do is eat colorful meals that include lots of veggies. Remember that REST is equally important to growth both in strength and flexibility so don’t skimp on that.

How well you can do something doesn’t factor into winning at all. It’s random so the more you do and share the better.

Yep text, notes on phone, or videos all work. If you want to write stuff down you can try using the blog section here too, it can be done from your phone so it makes it pretty accessible.

Thanks, I’ll look into it!

45s are great and I would suggest that diameter. Yes, thinner poles can bow but that doesn’t mean they are ruined or dangerous! As long as the pole isn’t crazy warped and all other parts are in working order a bit of a curve is ok. My brass is a 40 and has a bit of bowing.

Video please, not sure what it is. ðŸ˜Å

Reposting that last link…..
4 exercises every pole dancer should know https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJ3V_2DsxgE

Because rest is important I would try adding some extra conditioning work into whatever pole time you have.
I know you don’t want to do weights but this video has some great stuff you can do with either weights or instead use resistance bands like these http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/7245456313?redirect=true&ref_=s9_simh_gw_p200_d1_i1. You will need an exercise ball too.
Here is the video with 30 exercises for the whole body https://stage.studioveena.com/videos/view/52f90381-4458-4123-99e5-41150a9aa0eb
Here are some more strength based options I’ve shared on FB. There are more in the lessons too, if you’re ever in a place to use them.

I’ve broken a toe and severely injured (tore) the ligaments in my foot on the pinky toe side. I felt and heard a pop is was terrible! blah! Took FOREVER for both injuries to feel better, the toe break was significantly faster, just takes time to actually stop hurting.
If you can by a set of resistance bands there’s a lot you can do on the road with those. I focused on building my upper body strength at the time of my ligament tears. Can can maybe find a pack of bands at Target or any sporting goods store, I bought mine on amazon and they have held up super well. Here they are http://www.amazon.com/Black-Mountain-Products-Resistance-Exercise/dp/7245456313/ref=sr_1_1?s=sports-and-fitness&ie=UTF8&qid=1440107438&sr=1-1&keywords=resistance+bands
Also once your foot isn’t as painful start working on the foot exercises here, they will help rehab the poor piggy! https://stage.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4e316bf4-9398-4008-9184-6d820ac37250 https://stage.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4e297a2a-3fe0-4503-bc25-2a430ac37250
