A New WorkoutAnd no, Barney, I didn't know the punchline to this.... A friend passed on this exercise suggested for seniors, to build muscle strength in the arms and shoulders. It seems so easy, so I thought I'd pass it on some of you. It is recommended you do 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 your 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 sack. Then 50-lb. potato sacks, and 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. After you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each of the sacks. Posted by Jake on 06/30/05 @ 10:17 AM

Jake said on 06/30/05 @ 10:38 AM: Good, somebody else hadn't heard it. Thanks, Brad.
