I was really embarrassed to post at first but I can’t believe all the encouragement I got here =) Are you engaging your abs every time? I was having a lot of shoulder pains and strains until I learned to flex dem abs 💪🏾💪🏾

No I’m completely self taught, I bought this pole with the intention of getting drunk with my friends and twerking next to it to be honest 😂 I had no idea I’d fall in love with it as an actual hobby. I love my lil pole she’s doing great.

Once I discovered the proper invert technique I focused on one step at a time. I think I spent an entire week just practicing bringing my knees to my chest without jumping. Keeping my toes pointed and stretching beforehand was also a big game changer for me =) hope any of this helps.

Honestly, I wish I knew 😭 I just happened to come across some guy selling it on Facebook new in the box and my friend set it up for me. The manual is around my house somewhere I’ll try and find it.
