Great senior fitness technique or WHAT?

Posted by admin on June 18th, 2009 and filed under Senior Fitness | 6 Comments »

We came across this exercise suggested for seniors, to build muscle strength in the arms and shoulders. It seems so easy, so we thought we'd pass it on. The article suggested doing it three days a week.

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 you
r sides, and hold them there as long as you can. Try to reach a full minute, 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 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.

Once you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each of the sacks

Star meh if you likey 8P
