Scott you should do some basic core excerises, a good stretching routine and maybe some core lifts like squat and deadlift would massively benefit you. When training for a sport its all bout quality, you don't necessarily need to lift heavy, just do it right to actually strengthen the right areas. You see sooo many noobs come in the gym and try to lift more than me but aren't doing it right as clearly my muscle is more developed and hey I'm lifting 20kg lighter.

Thanks for the tip! My core isn't terrible...I mean I'm not exactly unfit, it just clearly needs work. I'll be making sure to start out fairly light anyway as I wouldn't want to do more damage than good.
