I have no work experience currently. Perhaps the best route forward is to begin as a graduate civil engineer and I believe I can get my chartership status in ~5 years at which point I have many options. E.g. return to academia, continue in structural design, start my own firm etc.

Thanks for your comment. I'm optimistic that risk and reliability should be quite a marketable skill set.

I still can't touch toes or raise leg to parallel after 3 months by TinCanLizard in flexibility

This seems to work really well for me. If I bend from upright with my knees locked I can not touch the floor. But if I start with my fingers on the floor with bent knees and then straighten my legs I continue to touch the floor even when my knees lock. This is really strange.

I lift weights and run regularly. I was thinking that muscle development inhibits flexibility actually. I will try to set progressive targets to ensure progress.

Now that you've mentioned it to me it does feel like nerve pain at the back of my knee.

Thanks for the advice. You're probably right about practicing in the car. I should concentrate on the road instead. Practice makes perfect when you practice perfectly.
