Mike I've been out of town for a while and just saw your post (I also live in the Seattle area). One low-cost option that may be helpful, is book published by the Mountaineers called "Conditioning for Outdoor Fitness" by David Musnick MD and selected physical therapists (I have no affiliation with them, btw) that lists a wide range of conditioning exercises for many types of sports, and includes many exercises specifically for kayaking. It includes many strength-building, stretching and endurance exercises for conditioning shoulders and elbows (generally the two biggest problem areas), as well as other areas. It's available through the King county library if you want to go that route.
