I thought I would let you 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 works well.

I started 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 few weeks 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.
