[Paddlewise] exercises for rolling

Monday night I took a class in rolling a kayak.
I learned quite a bit, and had a couple of moments where
it all came together while I still had the paddle float
attached to the end of the paddle.  I have some ideas
what I'm still doing wrong (the head wants to come out of the
water first).

Anyway, after 2 hours in the pool trying rolls, and doing a lot
or wet exits as well, I'm really sore.  Once I can move again
without the aid of ibuprofen, are there exercises I can
do to strengthen the waist and hip area?  That seems to
be where most of the soreness is.  I know, get back out there
and practice rolling some more, but for those times when I can't
get on the water to practice, what sorts of exercises will help
prevent this sort of sore muscles in the future?

thanks
dave
