Does any of you other polers suffer from this,i`ve noticed this over the past few months experiencing a pain that can only be described as a feeling like you`ve done to many situps.Over time it can feel like stomach ache though when rested say over the weekend it calms down a bit.Cheers in advance.

[Tim Rose]

Don't want to scare monger but it might be a tumour or something.   Seriously I would get that checked out - we don't normally feel pain in the guts.

[NWH]

I`ve had all the tests you can have,i`ve had more cameras than the BBC,it feels like strained stomach muscles.

[frames to panes]

Probably the weight of your wallet pulling you over?

[Jeff Brimble]

Using the pole sideways on over reaching with your arms above your chest/waist may cause this. But as Rosy said check it out.

Like i say i`ve had it all checked out,it`s as clean as a nuns knickers.

[Jeff Brimble]

Drink two litres a day and reduce the sex 

[NWH]

I have been told that by drinking more water will help by the specialist,ut as far as the sex goes noooooooooooooooooooooowayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy am i reducing that,what would the local netball team say lol.

[Jeff Brimble]

Water !!!!!! -   I meant draught bitter but only if your constipated as well 

[Jeff Brimble]

Seriously  , try reducing equipement weight more change your posture by not over reaching and keeping arms below waist/chest.

Oh re the  netball team- keep them happy, sod the window cleaning

NWH: you may be overstreching with your pole whilst you are working without being conscienciously aware. If you are constantly rushing all the time at work, you may be developing poorer WFP method techniques in order to complete the jobs without realising. Your body has a natural ability to tell you something is wrong.

[NWH]

I do feel like i am rushing at work,thinking about it i am on the go all the time at work and hardly ever stop for something to eat.I`m going to try using the superlite and see how i get on with that,i can remember using that pole for nearly all my work and hardly ever over stretched,i`ll try keeping my arms below my waste when using the pole,it feels like i`ve twisted my gut.

I would also get that checked out m8, could well be many things ask an expert.

Personaly, ( best mate  ) I'd put it down to being a fat b***ard!, or more politely- obese!

A few days with J.Demarco or a session with marjorie daws from fat fighters should sort you out though!

(sorry dude, couldn't resist )

Cruel to be kind, eh?

I think stomach pains I would be pooting myself.... get a cat scan or something.      Drink lots of water/eat plenty of fish, but get a xray of some sort.

[NWH]

Like i say i`ve had all the tests,i had really bad heartburn and had an edoscopic test and it was fine.By the way that`s a mother F***** of a thing to have i was reaching no stop for about 10 mins and had a headache for about a day after,also had the acid reflux test ie tubes down the nose lovley that was aswell,it comes on more when i`ve been poleing for a long time.

[Sir Squeaky]

Shoulders and elbow joints hurt on me, sometimes biceps, but never stomach.

Doesn't sound right mate.
Think about everything else you do, it might not be work related.

Yeah, joking apart mate, i'd agree with the squeeks on this one.

[Village Gleam]

Me too Squeaks mate
Upper back muscles constantly hurt, and my biceps are too big so I'm a bit muscle bound.

The stomach muscles are used to raise the knees(sprinting), the only other damage is stretching(leaning back or coughing or sneezing- or don't ignore a constant cold draught on the stomach)
