[CQ-Contest] Exercising while contesting

[Dave Hachadorian]

I had hip replacement surgery about 10 days ago, and they 
recommended use of this type of device during recovery:

I used it under the operating table during the NAQP this weekend, 
and it worked out nicely.  I had to sit back just a little to let 
my knees clear the shelf.  I think I'll continue to use it during 
contests, just to get the blood pumping in my legs.  Sitting 
dormant for a long period of time is probably the worst thing we 
can do, especially as we reach advanced age.
