Potato Exercises
Posted: October 2, 2007 10:07 pm
Forget the gluteus...this one will give us older folks
a workout!!!
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.
