I think all of us clarinet players should start a thread and photograph them, to see who has the worst one.
It's important that you exercise (yes, that is moving around and stretching) after playing. You need to to avoid injury. Think about it: you're better off excersicing for 5 min. or so after every time you play, rather than getting tendonitis or carpal tunnel syndrome and not being able to play again. I've seen it ruin people.
