Thanks a lot for your feedback.

i've been doing beringer for years - in fact they are the only studies i ever did. i think they're excellent - although one has to be careful - choosing the right ones is important. i found that some of them were over strenous and, possibly, a little pointless. exercise for the sake of exercise as it were.
