Ooh, thank you for pointing that out. It hadn't occured to me that I wasn't doing enough "pull" exercises. I used to climb regularly, but since moving to England from southern California, I haven't done it much. I've taken the bloke to the local gym a couple of times, but since this term started (we're both academics), we've been swamped. Term finishes this week, so hopefully we'll get back to the wall!

I'd like to start doing pull-ups again. When I did the Spartan Race, I managed to do three, but I used to be able to do more when I climbed.
