    Thumb, first and middle finger. I don’t have any pain just numbness.  I have started doing some mobs on the neck, first rib and shoulders. What I have noticed is that if I keep my shoulders externally rotated when I’m on the bike it seems to help, don’t know if its the rotation or the mobs, or a combination of both but it has made a difference.

    I had very similar pain to what you are describing. I used a raquetball to smash the area just above my knee on my quads. It hurt like hell, but after a day or two of 2-3 minutes 2-3 times a day, the pain was almost completely gone. I started including some form of quad/hip mob (usually smashing w a raquetball or pvc roller) to feed slack into the knee. Seems to work for me. Good luck!

    I downloaded the i-book version so I can have it with me at the gym. It seems a lot easier than taking a book and having to flip thru pages. I can just go to the table of contents and then click straight to the chapter I’m looking for.

    I’ve started working on my traps, neck, and shoulder area. I haven’t had a chance to get on the bike and retest due to weather. What is the best way to mobilize the neck area (scalenes?) Thanks for your advice!
