"Be Civil, not Sybil" ~Grand Master Pluba~  |
Hi Pluba folks,
This really seems to work. I recently came across this exercise suggested for older adults, to build muscle strength in the arms and shoulders. It seems so easy, so I thought I'd pass it on to some of my friends. The article suggested doing it three days a 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, 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 10-lb potato sacks. Then try 50-lb potato sacks and then 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. (I'm at this level) After you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each of the sacks. -mod |

Good Pluba |
That was good although I being the one that hates excersize was thinking the whole time I was reading, "would I have to actually have to have the potatos in the sacks or would it count if I left them out." LMAO when I came to the end. |
