Exercises suitable for cellists?
I'm an older cellist who's doing over three hours of practice a day, and I'm wondering what the best exercises/physical activities are to complement this.

I saw an earlier thread about rock climbing, but I think I will pass on that. . .

A recent issue of Strings magazine had an article about Pilates -- the technique apparently emphasizes using abdominal muscles to stabilize, and seems to be beneficial for players of larger instruments.
