OTPST is changing lives! Don't just take my word for it...
Before OTPST, I was grinding through HIIT, weights, running, and Pilates, constantly exhausted, in pain, and frustrated that I still didn't feel strong enough. When I first heard about OTPST, I honestly didn't think I needed another workout program.
Honestly I’ve never felt stronger since!! Only 5 weeks in I unexpectedly hit my deadlift and Iron X and better headstands too!! I have more energy to work on more fun stuff, instead of not so fun gym stuff. And i’m not in so much pain anymore!! My future self and shoulder joints are so grateful for OTPST and its lovely community!

About Abs | Pole Strength Coach
We are Stronger Together!
Hi pals! I'm Abs! I’ve been an athlete my whole life- 15 years of competitive swimming, decades of yoga, and a love for pole that started in 2013. After a 10-year break from "on-the-pole" training, I returned to the sport stronger than ever thanks to functional kettlebell training.
Most pole athletes know they should be training "off-the-pole" but they just don’t know where to start. That’s exactly why I created Off the Pole Strength Training (OTPST): a simple, accessible system that builds the strength, stability, and mobility pole dancers actually need.
My mission is to help you move better, feel stronger, and train for longevity- on and off the pole.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to be at a certain level to join?
No. OTPST is built for every pole athlete — beginners to advanced. Every workout is scalable and focuses on the strength patterns all pole dancers need.
Can I do these workouts at home?
Yes! Everything can be done at home, outside at the park, in the gym; wherever you have space to move your body. Kettlebells or dumbbells are the main equipment you will need.
Do I need to purchase equipment?
It depends on the workout! Dumbbells or kettlebells, long and mini bands, and a long foam roller is the general list of equipment you'll need throughout the OTPST workouts. Everything can be adapted to what you have available.
What if I already take pole classes?
Perfect- this is designed to support your "on-the-pole" training, not replace it. Off-the-pole strength work helps reduce pain, prevent burnout, and keep your body balanced and resilient.
Will this help my pole progress?
Absolutely. OTPST fills the gaps pole doesn’t train- strength, stability, mobility, and joint support- so your climbs, spins, inverts, and transitions feel stronger and more controlled.
What makes OTPST different from other fitness apps?
Every workout in OTPST is designed for pole athletes- targeting core control, shoulder stability, hip strength, grip endurance, and the movement patterns pole doesn’t train. This isn’t random fitness. It’s intentional support for your pole journey
