EXERCISE FOR PEOPLE OVER 60

[cateyes1]

 




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.
