RB, I think an arthritc Gorilla would be more graceful than even a 20 year old RB...<br />

Just being to be compared to an athritic gorilla is the ultimate compliment for me!!!! -

Rad. I'm using Vibrams for all my running, most of which is on concrete so I have to keep running style in as a consideration - no heel striking! Once the weather clears up and you can get back out on the grass, get some sprint training in if the knees will allow it. Help with the line speed and explosive power, and I plan to do some more once daylight savings kicks in.

I bought mine in Chicago in 1992. They were all the rage with budding high school Linemen and Wrestlers at that time. Have to admit I have only used it intermittently since then. But my neck needs strengthening seeing I'm not scrummaging anymore and the harness does the job perfectly.

Lot of guys I know looked at me funny when I talked about neck exercises. I don't use a harness, just the resistive strength of my arms. Do 8 front, 8 back, then 7 either side.<br />

Another goodie is planking with the head (from side/front and back positions) using a swiss ball.
