Hello CJ Schrader,
You may need to take things slower and work up to doing upper body ergometer. Have you been cleared to kayak? Ask your physical therapist and doctor what they suggest. Try to hold your hands in the supinated position (palms up) or neutral (palms face in) and keep your shoulder blades packed properly (back and down) when doing exercise and even throughout the day. You do not want to injure your shoulder labrum.
I suggest you let the hip heal; listen to your body, do not fight it, please. I know it is hard to sit things out waiting to get better; but, pushing through pain will most likely lengthen the healing process.
Take care,
