Title: NFR: Exercise for the over 50's
Post by: Senior Supporter on February 19, 2011, 06:50:16 PM
I'm pleased to share the following exercise advice with those on here who, like me, are over 50. 

Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of room at each side.

With a 5lb 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 will find that you can hold the position for a little longer. After a couple of weeks move up to 10lb potato bags.

Then try 50lb potato bags, and then eventually try to get to where you can lift a 100lb potato bag in each hand and hold your arms straight for a minute.

                                                          I'm at this level.


After you feel comfortable at that level - put a potato in each bag.     :005:
