Any personal trainers/paddlers out there?  I am looking for advice on
exercises that will strengthen the muscles used during the  Eskimo roll hip
snap.  I paddle a Current Designs Gulfstream and have been trying for years to
develop a dependable roll. I was first taught the C-to-C roll and want to
stick with it for now.  After five to ten attempts, failure is almost a
certainty due, in part, to a weak snap.  I belong to a fitness club with Cybex
machines and free weights.  I confess to being 74 years young but in great
shape - considering.  Thanks for your thoughts..
