Cheers mate - yeah, gotta love Drain You

Hi everyone! I'm returning from months in the wilderness (of being lazy ) to climbing and its great to be back! Stats Level 1 Height 188cm Weight 79kg I wonder if anyone could help with a problem I've been having; my fingers are hypermobile which means that when I'm trying to grip a hold the ends (past the last joint) tend to bend backwards past 180 degrees, which makes my grip much, much weaker. Has anyone else had the same problem?

This'll be my first 6 week challenge - here goes! Challenge 1: do 15 consecutive pull ups, without kipping - I can do 10 at the mo, so this would be made of awesome Challenge 2: 3 pull ups on the easiest bit of the fingerboard at my uni's climbing wall - right now I don't have the finger strength to manage even one, so this'll be tough! Challenge 3: stretch every day - I have really tight calves, hamstrings and low back, which is limiting my mobility and causing me some back pain - time to get it sorted! Challenge 4: play Heart Shaped Box from start to finish - just starting to play e guitar and so far I'm loving it
