Silicone or Chrome Pole...

Honestly, some of you seriously get in your own way!

Instead of saying.. 'Kel it's easier for you, you use a silicone pole, the majority of us use a metal finish pole and it's so much harder...'

Listen, I started on a chrome pole way back when and will still use the chrome pole but I just prefer a silicone.

Why do I prefer a silione you may ask..
becuase I don't need to heat up the pole to grip
I don't have to take my clothes off for skin grip
I don't have to apply a load of grip aid
I can actually move easier becuase once I'm warm my legs grip way too much on chrome and I hate it.

These are all my personal reasons!

All my lessons, feedback, tips can be done on any finish pole (unless stated otherwise) making them accessible to anyone, whether you choose to use a metal finish pole or silicone.

My goal is to help you improve your technique so you can progress faster and minimise injuries and plateauing no matter what pole you use.

So please peeps, don't use that as an excuse, it's completely your choice what pole you want to use. You too could use a silicone pole too if you wanted to but it isn't for everyone! (I'll do a pro and cons post soon)

So here is the same combo using both poles. Ok timings are slightly off but just wanted to show you that you can use any pole.

Avoid finding excuses this year.. or blaming things on someone/something else. Find a way instead. Invest in yourself, you deserve it! You've got this! xx
