Kirstyn,
Thanks so much for the information. My problem area in my upper back is exactly where you describe. I try hard to stretch out those muscles doing what looks like a hamstring stretch, sitting with legs straight out and bent over at the waist. I don't care much about my hamstrings, but reaching for my toes with my head hanging down can make that upper back area feel good after a few long minutes. Is this kinda what you are talking about?
I wish I had a good physio like you do :) My free personal trainer session at the gym was helpful, but maybe I will spring for more in the future.

there are 3 different energy substrates that we use.

1. Creatine/phosphate
2. Glycolytic
3. Oxydative

To learn why marathon running didn't improve your PFT's, google these terms. In short, the first substrate is for power, or work done in less than 10 seconds. The glycolytic is work done between 10-90 seconds. Oxydative is work done over 90 seconds.

Once you have "mastered" oxydative....ie, running a marathon, any adaptation realized will be static. However, training the other two substrates will complete the energy cycle and yield a greater lung capacity output.
