Just Pole @ the Wai`anae Christmas Parade!


Aloha Polers and Pole Supporters!  We hope you had a wonderful Christmas and were able to spend it with your wonderful families and poles!  We were very excited to be able to share our love for Pole Fitness in the recent Wai`anae Christmas Parade!!!

Just Pole Crew:)
The Wai`anae Christmas Parade is all about promoting health and fitness from all types of formats which is why we were welcomed with open arms to showcase Pole Fitness!  With us promoting Pole Fitness and all we could not leave out a pole!  We had our handy dandy Just Pole men help us figure out how to securely strap in our Stand Alone Pole to the back of a truck!  After they worked their magic, the pole was sturdier than ever and ready for the parade!



We were so excited yet nervous at the same time knowing the stereo types about Pole but to our surprise we were a huge hit!

We mainly showed the fitness aspect of Pole Fitness staying far away from the stereo typical thought of what pole is:).  We could tell a lot of people were really intrigued by it.

Regardless, we had a blast sharing our Pole Love with everyone there as well as Poling in a moving truck!


This was such a great experience and we cannot wait until the next event to share our love for Pole Fitness and change everyone's thoughts of it as well!  Please feel free to share with us just how you have done the same or plan too!  We love hearing about how other's share their love:).  Have a wonderful day and Pole on!

What's in the Pole World News: Mothers Redefining Beauty!

Aloha Polers and Pole Supporters!  It's What's in the Pole World News Wednesday and today's topic is on Mother's Redefining Beauty!

Zoraya Judd.  Mother, Wife and one of the many Mother's Defining Beauty with Pole:)
Today I saw a post by X-Pole and thought this would be such an awesome thing to share for many reason.  It is inspiring, eye opening and could change someones life.  The post explained that 79% of mother's suffer from personal, emotional and physical challenges that include low self-esteem.  This is all true and some of these mother's get close to becoming suicidal because of the listed above after pregnancy.  Please go to the following link to read more on this and share this video with all of your friends to spread the word.

The truth is, where would we be without mother's!

Stretchy Sunday's: Straddle Stretch!

Aloha Polers and Pole Supporters!  It's Stretchy Sunday's and today's stretch is the oh so familiar Straddle!



The Straddle is a stretch that we all have done in some form either standing or seated.  The Straddle is a great stretch to add to stretch out your legs as well as your lower back and to get closer to your middle split.  The following are a guideline to proper do a Straddle (seated):

  1. Have a seat on the floor with your legs out straight in front of you.
  2. Open your legs as wide to the sides as you can without trying to force them open.
  3. At that point, this is where you will be unless you feel they can open some more.
  4. Make sure you are sitting on your sits bone by sitting up straight with your chest up and pelvis untucked.
  5. Engage your quads, straighten your legs so that your knees are not bent and point your toes.
  6. If you feel like you are not getting a stretch, open your legs a bit more until you do.
From this point of the Straddle, you can add various stretches such as a side stretch for each side as well as a more intense stretch by lowering your torso in between your legs while keeping your pelvis untucked.  Always remember:
  1. Listen to your body!  If it hurts, don't do it:)
  2. If you are going for flexibility, hold this stretch for at least 30 seconds:)
  3. Drink plenty of water even while stretching since this is as well a form of exercise:)
  4. Before flexibility stretching, make sure your body is warm enough.  It is a bad idea to do such long and intense stretching when your body is cold, you could pull a muscle:)
  5. The more often you stretch, the closer to your flexibility goal you will get:)
  6. Always make sure you are doing a stretch properly, improper stretching can cause injury:)
Well, get your Stretchy Sunday on with a Straddle and have a wonderful day!

Fitness Friday's: Holiday Fatigue Setting in?

Aloha Polers and Pole Supporters!! It's Fitness Friday and today's topic is Holiday Fatigue!


You're probably thinking, Holiday Fatigue?  What's that?  Holiday Fatigue to me is that feeling you get during the Holiday's when you are overly stuffed, stressed or lacking sleep and you just do not have the  urge to get your workout on anymore.  I have totally been here and HATE IT!  There are many ways to keep the Holiday Fatigue away!  Here are some tips that have personally helped me:

  • Eat normally!  Just because it is the Holiday's doesn't mean it's okay to eat whatever you want and you be the same.  Majority of Holiday foods cause this fatigue.  Stay smart and eat more healthy than Holiday:)
  • Breathe!  Stress is a given during this time for many reasons.  Remember, take a couple of deep breaths and let it go:)
  • Workout!  Working out will help with relieving your stress and will also give you energy:)
  • Time Management!  Time management is very important and more so during the Holiday's.  Make sure to manage your time well and get done what needs to get done especially sleep:)
  • Holiday Chocolates & Cookies are NOT a meal!  No replacing meals for these treats, you need all the nutrients you can get now:)
  • Treat yourself!  Treat yourself to a relaxing massage or facial, you deserve it:)
  • POLE!  get your pole on and all is well;)
These are just tips that helped me but many more out there:).  Regardless, take care of yourselves this Holiday Season and your bodies will take care of you.  Have a wonderful Holiday Season!

Happy Poling!

Fitness Friday's: Importance of Stretching!

Aloha Polers and Pole Supporters!!  It's Fitness Friday's and although it doesn't seem like it have anything to do with fitness our subject for today is the Importance of Stretching!


Stretching is a VERY IMPORTANT part of working out for many different reasons!  With adding stretching into your workouts before and after that focus on all major muscle groups you will get more out of your workout as well as decrease the pain afterwards;)!

Stretching will increase your flexibility and by increasing your flexibility you will be increasing your physical performance during exercise strengthening yourself against injuries in and out of the workout.  By adding stretching into your daily workout you are helping yourself from suffering when you age:)!  Stretching also helps with increasing your blood flow to your muscles which then helps prevent your muscles from tiring so quickly too!  

The proper way to get your stretch on before your workout is to do a light warm up to get your muscles warmed before stretching them.  Stretching muscles when they are cold is no good!  For example, if you are planning on running , do a light jog until your feeling warm, stop and do some stretches to the major muscles groups and continue your run.  You probably already see a lot of runners do this because they know the importance of stretching:)!

So, get your stretch on and see the benefits hands on!  Have a great weekend:)

Fitness Friday's: Push ups!!!

Aloha Polers and Pole Supporters!  It's Fitness Friday's and today's topic .... Push ups!!


Yay for Push ups!!!  This is another move that we all LOVE to HATE because it hurts so good and we know that they have many benefits.....but what are those benefits???  Push ups help in many ways when done correctly.

Benefits of Push ups:

  • They will help in building strength:)
  • Can increase metabolism:)
  • Most important, build your core strength:)
These are just some of the benefits but my fav's!!!  When doing a push up we need to remember that if is hurts, DO NOT DO IT!  There are so many different forms of Push ups and everyone is different.  Some of us have previous wrist injuries and some of us have never done a Push up in our lives.  regardless, there are ways to work around everyone's injuries, etc to make it happen:)!  A Standard Push up starts with the palms of both hands flat on the floor right outside of your shoulders.  Depending on your strength, they can be done with your knees on the floor or just your toes.  From the floor or starting position, you will need to use your upper body strength to Push your body weight up making sure to engage your core (engaging the core will help a lot!).  When Pushing up, try not to hyper extend your arms to prevent injury.  Keep them soft and not locked either.  After you have pushed your way up, slowly with control bring yourself back down also engaging your core to help prevent injury.  That's it!  usually when doing Push ups you would do however many sets or how ever many Push ups but if you are a beginner I would suggest to do as many as you can for one set and really push yourself!    Important things to remember:

  • Listen to your body:)
  • Always engage your core:)
  • Keep your body straight throughout the Push up keeping your butt down and in line with your body:)
  • If it hurts, modify or change hand positions:)
  • QUALITY over QUANTITY:)
Get your Push up on and have a great weekend!!

Bendability with Amy Guion!!

Aloha Polers and Pole Supporters!  I know I keep saying this but the 2012 Las Vegas Pole Expo was filled with so many wonderful things that I HAVE to share with everyone that was not there:)!  Today we feature Bendability with Amy Guion!!



Not only is Amy Guion an awesome Polefessional and such a lil' cutie but she is also extremely talented and flexible!



At the Pole Expo we were all lucky enough to be able to enjoy Amy Guion's FREE workshops on both days!  She did a Morning Stretch workshop on both days that were PACKED with people wanting to get their stretch on with Amy:)!

A little about Amy straight from her Bendability Fitness website:):

Amy is a classically trained dancer and has been apart of Pole Fitness since 2007.  She graduated from Loyola Marymount University with a bachelors in natural science (a program that emphasizes anatomy, kinesiology, exercise science and nutrition).  Her background has lead her to create her own series of instructional DVD's to help us all increase our strength and flexibility and assist in injury prevention and recovery!

I have already put in an order for her DVD Set and can't wait to start!  From her very educational workshop at the Pole Expo I know this will be well worth it for my goals in strengthening and increasing my flexibility.  I'm excited and will keep you all posted on results!!!  If you are interested or want to check out what she has available her website is:

http://www.amyguion.com/

Check her out!  She has cute apparel as well that we all got while at the Pole Expo too:)!  You can also check out the Bendability You Tube channel at:

http://www.youtube.com/user/bendabilityfitness

The Bendability You Tube channel will give you a little taste of what her DVD set will have to offer:).

Get it on and have a great day!

Arbonne with Pamela Malone Hughes!

Aloha Polers and Pole Supporters!!  It's Wednesday and yes just a bit more recap and highlights from the awesome 2012 Las Vegas Pole Expo!  While attending and being a vendor at the Pole Expo we meet so many wonderful friends and fellow vendors aka friends as well;)!  Today we would like to highlight our next door neighbors throughout the complete Pole Expo, Arbonne with Pamela Malone Hughes!  Not only were they, Pamela and her husband, awesome people but they had such an awesome product to offer called Arbonne!

We were lucky to score some samples and gave it a try when we finally got home and settled down....and found the lost samples in the mound of laundry and new goodies we brought back from the expo lol!  I was one of the lucky one that got to try out the RE9 Advanced line and let me tell you I hate spending so much time on these types of things!  But I figured, really...what do you have to lose!  I gave it a try for a week and fell in LOVE!!  They say you will see a difference in 24 hours and I was a bit skeptical of that because that is fast.  I didn't necessarily see a difference (my fault, I should have paid more attention to that LOL) but felt a WORLD of difference after the week and even the first day!  it did take me some getting used to and labeling on what went first, second and what not but after the second day I was pro since there is a regimen for the morning and night and soon enough it took no time!  My skin feel great!  I have used many moisturizers in the past and all seemed to leave me quite oily and I really thought that my face was just extra oily but now am starting to think that it was the type of product I was using.  The Arbonne RE9 Advanced line left me feeling Fab all day and all night:)!  After I fell in love I looked into their products more and saw that they had a Men's line too!  Yay!  If you are interested or even have questions go ahead and contact Pamela on her Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/pamela.m.hughes.92 and she would be more than happy to help and explain more about this wonderful product!

Ladies, it is NEVER too late or too early to start a regimen like this, she will show you success photos that prove that!

Well, take care and happy Hump Day!!!
