takes a little bit of getting used to, but its good. Dont hold the bar RIGHT in the middle, just a little off centre works for me

Thanks mate. Seeing the spinal cord injuries at my wife's work, makes me think it'd be insulting to throw in the towel with a minor back complaint like mine compared to what they go thru.
