  Yes you are using different muscles but if your neck keeps hurting stand further back

I thought it was going to be eas going wfp but stu is right! its like going down the gym! it gets better after a few weeks though, honest! wear a baseball ap and sunnys when its bright as well as youll be looking at the sun on most houses on one side!

yeah, good tip is stand further back to avoid neck ache!

[scottt24]

agree with GB standing further back will make it easier on your neck you will also find that you wont have to put much pressure on pole as the weight of it will do it for you

also when cleaning higher windows try standing with one foot in front of the other and rock slowly from foot to foot and this will make it easier on your arms and shoulders

it will get easier
