I'm a beginner so i haven't found the best ways to do things yet. Any pointers would be great! Thanks.

Buy Sage Tea from your supermarket b. Fill a large bowl with room temperature water c. Put the sage tea bags in the bowl and let the tea dissolve a bit. d. soak your hands for 15 minutes in the bowl. Sage Tea will act as an astringent to dry the skin and prevent excessive sweating for many days to follow. Don't just do this soak one day. Do it everyday for 5 days straight (15 minutes at a time) and you'll see great results. If your hands tan from the tea, just wash them in the sink with antibacterial soap. The residue will come off easily. You can find tons other suggestions and natural solutions at: http://www.Prevent-Sweating.com Try a Sage Tea Soak

Stand with the pole on your dominant side. Place your hands in the high and chest grip - and then without the spin, lift your standing legs slowly off the ground into a tuck position. Obviously take care whilst doing this as if your hands stand to give way you could have a rather hard landing, so take some precautions like you do when you train the standard hang tough. If you find the position unstable, try changing your hand grip to the opposite as you may find more support in the opposite hand grip. If you practice sustaining this static position for about 5 secs like you do with the standard hang tough, I think you will find the spin much easier to obtain! Also with regards to this type of spin, try to find lots of bravery as you enter the spin. The more momentum you have for this particular spin, the easier it becomes (but do take care because of this factor!) Also, doing some abdominal work in the gym or during your pole training session will really help the lower abs and you use them to lift your legs and sustain the merry go round position. Good luck! x Hello Haylz,

Since rock climbers use gym chalk to get their hands dry, do you think it would work for us, as we're working on metal? Has anybody tried gym chalk or baby powder?

I have heard that a small amount on hands and thighs help maintain grip, just wondering if anyone has experience with the gel. Has anyone tried using Gillette shave gel to help with pole grip?
