	[>]  I find pumping my feet/legs (in sync with my strokes) helps
increase the blood flow.  My Looksha IV seat is higher at the forward
edge than in the middle which means my butt is a little lower than my
hamstrings creating pressure on them. The leg movement seems to relieve
pressure on those nerves/arteries.
