I had developed (after the end of the 2nd week) minor injuries and by the end of the 3rd week, I saw a chiropractor and got a massage in the same week! I've taken a break from classes and feel so much better. I have a pole at home, so I can use it at my own pace and work on the tricks I want to work on, instead of getting new things thrown at me. (I love a challenge, but I gotta listen to my body).
I started taking calcium religiously when i was 25 or so. I suggest starting now as you start losing bones mass in your 20's. I've really benefitted from it. Glycosamine is a must. I didn't start taking it until 9 years ago. I've never had bad knees or major back problems. Don't forget to take them with vitamin D.
This will help with feeling worn out and give you the longevity to travel. I traveled a bit as well. So much fun!
I really need to start taking better care of my body because I think a lot of me hurting so bad is neglecting my body by not taking vitamins and not eating a healthy diet plus I drink like a fish. As much as I dance with me aging I'm sure that contributes to me hurting but if I want to continue even into my 30's, I need to start like yesterday on taking supplements and eating right.

Re: The Age You Think Dancer Should Retire
I'm 27 but I look younger. I think it's because I'm a vampire. I never go out in the sun unless I wear SPF 110 sunblock on my face even in the winter. I put cold cream on my face when I sleep, use moisturizer and sleep with an eyemask and earplugs.

I put up a pic o her and I in another thread. Anyways when you still look and feel better than 80% of the girls at any given club you work than who's to say when? I can still work 5-6 days in a row and I sold more suites than any girl most nights since I've been here so......I'll keep on truckin!

I hate this too. I love how they look so excited asking dancers if they're college girls, and when I tell them I already went to college they look disappointed. Why?! I guess next time I'd tell them I'm a super senior or I'm back for my second degree to see if they would look less disappointed.

Ahh! I'm sideways. Oh well. The point: I look good enough that I haven't been boo'd off stage and told to retire. I feel good. To all you youngin's: if you want to have a long career in this industry you can. That is if the strip club doesn't become obsolete in the future;-(

Re: The Age You Think Dancer Should Retire
^F n wow..53..no way! I have lost some of my enthusiasm for the job...This area is really depressing and some parts of my life have been a drag. I am currently working to improve the negatives n my life but its just gonna take some times and until then I guess I may have some rough days...Im not naturally high energy whatsoever and am def not a fitness buff...To those of u who r I think its wonderful and provides u with many years n the business....And I def dont feel hot amongst the young girls n their twenties...The only girls who look good over 30 starve themselves around here...I really dont like this position Im in but I really dont have anyone to blame..just me. The college degree I have will only bring me a low paying entry level job... What to do..Guess I got to figure it out on my own..

Your body is rockin! You must eat healthy/ workout all the time. That's my only down fall I haven't really worked out in 4 months and I eat crap ( all packaged food) but I am lucky that I have a hard time gaining I 5 feet 6 111. I wish I had your bod though....

U and Dorien look fucking phenomenal! And no U dont look like jenna... For me personally, like I mentioned already I think I am struggling at work moreso bc Im going thro alot of personal stress right now..Im trying to be strong and leave a very unhealthy situation that has been making me unhappy for quite some time..Its weighing on me heavily and when Im at work I dont feel up to me job whatsoever..Thats why I have been working less..But bc money has been so bad in the clubs around here u cant cut down to one to two nights a week and still make it...I do about 4 right now. Being strong and doing the right thing and going against ur own heart to better ur life is hard..Its depressing, hence my weight gain...I know that once I get past "letting go" I will be ok..I just suck ass at letting go..But here I am trying to anyways..Thank u all for chiming in here on my post..I really do appreciate it. It is especially nice to see women in their 40s and 50s still kicking ass at dancing...To those of u n ur 40s and 50s, do u ever honestly feel 'too old' around girls 10, or 20 years younger? or does it not bother u so much?

Thanks:-) I don't really look at it as working out to keep my weight down. I do it more so I can keep my weight up (so I won't get saggy) and also, so I won't break myself while working, lol. I do try to eat balanced but ironically, I got food poisoning off and on all last week from organic quinoa! WTF?!! Sugar was the only thing that would make my stomach feel better. So, coffee cake and Ben & Jerry's have been on my menu for the last few days. I know I can be borderline diabetic so I have to watch the sugar:-(
