I'm a quantitative analyst working on credit risk modeling at PNC Financial Services. I earned my PhD doing computational neuroscience, working with decision making processes and investigating functional connectivity between different parts of the human brain. I've also worked as a freelance web developer and IT consultant. One of my favorite pastimes is poi spinning.

comment Difficulty breathing in push-up position
I doubt this type of question will receive a satisfactory answer, as you haven't--and really can't in a forum setting--provided enough information to diagnose the problem. Keep at it, and if it doesn't get easier after a consecutive month, see a doctor. If it really worries you, see a doctor sooner.

comment Why does my neck feel strained when doing push-ups?
This is good advice for any exercise; form should almost always take precedence over quantity.
