    Great, will work for that when I get the heavier weights.

Then just start putting together the palms of the hands so that 1 rep is with the right hand being on top, then changing so that left hand is on top. Keep your biceps tight and do 200 reps of that. And keep a slow and steady pace and your biceps tight.
    That's a cool alternative - never heard of that exercise before. I will work on that in the meantime.

    Reading back on your instructions, I realise that I can do numbers 1 and 3. I had misread them. I thought, with number 1, your arse had to be off the ground too and your whole body weight be held up on your elbows. Assuming that arse remains on the floor, this is indeed a simple exercise and I can feel work going on with the abs. Number 3, I had a problem balancing but now it's ok - perhaps it was just a bad day. I will bring these exercises into my exercise routine.

    I've found a few stretches online which have helped and I use that stretch which you mentioned regularly. For the record, I'm convinced this isn't an abnormal pain - more like a light strain which just needs some light attention after a workout.

    I'm looking to get fit too.
    I'm not overweight, but just need to tone up.
    Cardio is what lets me down, I just find it so ridiculously boring, it becomes horribly tedious and I just give up on it after the first few works. Need to find something to get me out of that routine!
    I'm currently 175cm and 59kg. I'm hoping to lose about two kilos of that in fat and gain in a tiny bit of muscle.

    Free Calorie Counter, Diet & Exercise Journal | MyFitnessPal.com really helps out with the diet side of things if any of you are struggling with that. You can get it on Android, iPhone and Windows Phone (as well as inputting data on a computer).

    Hopefully within the next three months I'll achieve my goal!

    No one has, but it is really the most simple to work your biceps if you don't have any access to equipment.

    Pih, took the new tractor for a spin on tarmac to scout my new work commute. Won't be doing the commute on that thing, that's for sure. Even with nontrendy high 3bar tyre pressures the thing slows down on small downhills.

    There's not enough hair in the world to shave off to make that thing fly on tarmac.

    Put slicks on it?

    I survived my first attempt at cycling on a velodrome and absolutely loved it. Can't wait to go again. I only did one timed flying lap from a standing start and managed to complete 250m in 25.16 seconds averageing about 37kph. Sir Chris Hoy can do 200m on the same track from a standing start in under 10 seconds. Must try harder.
    My phone has an alarm clock! Ner Ner! :p
