Take a step up or down when you're on the pole, change position to take the strain off your knees. I never had that problem and 40 minutes isn't that long. Just try to change position so you ease off on the locked knees.
I just started training at a power line school. After working on the pole with my knees lock for 30 to 40 minutes I have a really hard time bending my knees for a few minutes.. I was wondering if anyone has a fix for this? Maybe knee braces, or maybe I will just get used to it after a few months..

Being prepared. Do some stretching exercises..Maybe some leg presses. And time will help also.
