Excercise after Christmas

PaulR

After the excesses of Christmas I needed some exercise to get fit again and have decided to share my secret with you.

Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of room at each side. With a 5kg 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, 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 10kg potato sacks. Then try 25kg potato sacks and then eventually try to get to where you can lift a 50kg potato sack in each hand and hold your arms straight for more than a full minute.

I'm now at this level.

After you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each sack.
