Here's a good exercise for people over 60.
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
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.
