Exercise for people over 50
« on: September 02, 2009, 06:45:46 AM »
EXERCISE FOR PEOPLE OVER 50 ...


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

at each side.


With a 5-lb potato bag 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 bags.


Then try 50-lb potato bags and then eventually try to get to where you can

lift a 100-lb potato 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.
