The classic ski exercise is to "sit" against a wall without a chair for as long as you can (I think my max was 2 minutes). In other words, 1) stand with your back to the wall; 2) move your legs out from the wall; 3) bend your knees and hips so they both make right angles; 4) stay there 20 seconds after you start to tremble. -- Ken Turkowski @ CADLINC, Menlo Park, CA UUCP: {amd,decwrl,hplabs,nsc,seismo,spar}!turtlevax!ken ARPA: turtlevax!ken@DECWRL.ARPA
