Thought I would let you, my friends, in on a little secret I've found for
building my arm and shoulder muscles. You might wish to adopt this
regimen -3 days a week - if you would like. I start by standing outside
behind the house and, with a 5 pound potato sack in each hand, extend my
arms straight out to my sides and hold them there as long as I can.
After a while I moved up to 10 pound potato sacks, then 50 pound potato sacks
and finally I got to where I could lift a 100 pound potato sack in each hand
and hold my arms straight out for more than a full minute!
Next, I started putting a few potatoes in the sacks, but I would caution you
not to overdo it at this level.
