Now that the huntin' season is done & we're waiting for the Spring fishin' to begin, we need to make sure we don't get into the "winter couch potato syndrome".
Here's an exercise program for those of us who enjoy the "senior Discount" program offered at many stores:
This is designed to build & tone to build muscle strength in the arms and shoulders. It seems so easy, so I thought I'd pass it on. It's 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 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 sacks. Then 50-lb potato sacks.
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 sacs & continue...
