While we are all sitting around waiting for the virus to go away, here’s some good advice for people over 60!

Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of room on each side.

With a 5-lb potato bag in each hand, extend your arm straight out from your sides and hold them there as long as you can. Try to reach a full minute and 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 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 now at this level.)

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

In my college days, I lived on a diet of potatoes. I'm reliving that now + frankly don't mind a bit.
