Title: Exercise for people over 60
Post by: vwtrike (Rich) on January 16, 2015, 04:48:32 pm

Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of room on each side.

With a 5-lb potato bag in each hand, extend your arms straight out from your sides. Hold them there as long as you can. Try to reach a full minute, and then relax.

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

After a couple of weeks, move up to a 10-lb potato bag. Then try 50-lb potato bags, and then eventually, try to get to where you can lift a 100-lb bag in each hand and hold your arms straight for more than a full minute (I'm at this level).

After you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each bag.
