My doc put me on this program a few weeks ago and I am REALLY starting to see some results...
Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty
of room at each side.
With a 5-lb 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'll find that you can hold this position for just a bit
longer.
After a couple of weeks, move up to 10-lb potato bags.
Then try 50-lb potato bags and then eventually try to get to where
you can lift a 100-lb potato bag 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 bag.
