Exercise For Seniors and Almost Seniors...

You may want to try this... You'll be amazed with your own strength!

This exercise is suggested for seniors, to build muscle strength in the arms and shoulders. It seems so easy, I thought that I'd pass it on. It is suggested doing this three times per week.

Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of room at each side. 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, then relax. Repeat as often as you're able.

Each day, you'll find that you can hold this position for just a bit longer.

After a couple of weeks, move up to 10 lb. potato sacks. Then 50 lb. potato sacks.

Eventually try to get to where you can lift a 100 lb. potato sack in each hand and hold your arms straight for more than a full minute.

After you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each of the sacks. grin
