Anyone for pole dancing!!

No I kid you not. This is a liitle old post I found but it does show how we all suffer to different degrees. And what helps some may not help others!!

Now I know I'll never be able to pole dance lol But I have to say I do agree with the concept of movement to help reduce pain.

Lucy Cropper has fibromyalgia, a condition which causes pain all over her body.

At times it was so excruciating she could barely move - until she found pole dancing gave her much-needed relief.

She now teaches classes in Witney, Oxfordshire.

Sounds like a plan to me Pat, I filled in my chart for this week. I lost a 1lb but I'll take that. Just watching that young lady on that pole had me drop another 2lb lol

Yes maybe her figure and to be at least 30 years younger may just help me lol . I'm not knocking it. I think any kind of exercise is good for fibro. But maybe this kind may be better tried by the younger more agile sufferes of fibro IMO ! Xx

I would love to learn this! I don't get how some people are able to move like that haha. Being flexible is not a skill of mine, but I am trying my best. I am thinking about contacting someone from northcarolinastripper.com/ in order to help me out with this matter. After all, everything can be learned and I am sure that they are willing to show me some tips and tricks. Luckily, I live in a house and I am able to install a pole in order to practice this thing. One day I am going to be really good at this!
