Excercise For Seniors
Author Unknown
For those of us getting along in years, here is a little secret for building
your arm and shoulder muscles. You might want to adopt this regimen. Three
days a week works well.
Begin by standing outside behind the house, with a 5-LB. potato sack
in each hand. Extend your arms straight out from your sides and hold them
there as long as you can-try to reach a full minute. Relax.
After a few weeks, move up to 10-LB. potato sacks, and then 50-LB. potato
sacks, and eventually try to get to where you can lift a 100-LB. potato
sack in each hand and hold your arms straight out for more than a
full minute.
After you feel confident at that level, start putting a couple of potatoes
in each of the sacks, but be careful not to overdo it.
