Not your typical muscle soreness, feels like the deep muscles in my back and abs are separating. I'm thinking it's because for the past 48 years they haven't been targeted like they are now. Anybody else experience that when first starting?

Before I poled I did martial arts for a few years so I thought I was already pretty fit, toned etc. However I noticed an odd, deep soreness with my abs when I first started poling too. Probably similar to yours. It's like all the prepping and training for pole moves crunches all your muscles. As long as it's not very painful or causing a lot of discomfort I wouldn't worry. I just tell myself it's my abs getting nice and strong so I can do pretty moves! : 😀
I haven't experienced any pain with my abs yet however I know the back muscle pain you are talking about. I have it too. I just recently started getting that pain when I started the pole strength training with the Studio Veena video lessons few days ago. And before I started that I was poling for about 2 months until I was finally able to pay for the lessons.
