I've got all sorts of pain.

One side of my body is over developed, due to using heavy poles from a previous employer.
I'm prone to injury's, so can't do any sports that involve twisting or sit for to long.

Now I have a personal trainer to correct my back, acupuncherest, chiropractor and I do yoga every morning and form roll.

Been going on for years, but the last 6 months I've been training my back up with my P.T and its going well.

Sounds like you need to buy a thumper  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkMq5tUdPRo
My mate ended up getting one after spending a fortune over the year as it's the same tool used by his chiropractor
I’ve had a few thumper sessions myself… Brilliant bit of kit

Cheers guys. That thumper looks good Smurf. Just had a look on the website and the thumper sport also looks very good. I may have to treat myself. I remember the days when I was injury free and my equipment cost me next to nothing... Someone pass me the bucket and ladder!

zero aches and pains here and im nearly 44 and been window cleaning 22 years(5 and a half years wfp).

ive had on occasions a stiff neck but thats usually when ive been squeezing in f/s/g add ons or conny roof cleaning around my normal regular window cleaning jobs.

Consider yourself one of the lucky ones Dazmond! Perhaps I used the CLX-27 for too long. Maybe for the first few months my posture wasn't great and that's what's caused my problems. I'm confident I use the pole in the correct way now, and have done for some time but it seems the damage has already been done! 
Oh well, physio tonight and a SLX-18 arriving Monday, onwards and upwards!

Repetitive strain is caused more by short sharp movements so try do longer strokes. \Techneek plays a large roll in this matter.

  we are talking about wfp issues, are you in the right forum? lmao
