Biceps: one arm straight in front of you (not down or up but straigth!) now bend your wrist and stretch your arm by holding the hand. Got that one? -------------- - Nina :o) Les Victoires éternelles sont celles du coeur.

This can be uncomfortable, so go only as far as to get a nice stretch and not hurt. If this is not the stretch Philia was describing, I apologize, but it's a good one!
