Sweet man. You know, I kind of resolved that issue with myself today while practicing. I was thinking I was bending the **** out of my index finger while in reality I was only feeling some minor aches from over working some muscles I don't ordinarily work. You learn to relax that which aches and work around it until it becomes second nature to play the way it doesn't hurt and that's the proper way. I'm going to look closely at those definitions tomorrow but I've got a feeling I already partly do something of the like. All these definitions, good to know though, so I know what you guys are talking about.
