Begin by standing on a comfortable surface where you have plenty of room at each side.
With a 5-lb 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, 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 sacks. Then 50-lb potato sacks. Eventually try to get to where you can lift a 100-lb potato sack 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 of the sacks.

Too much work! I'd rather garden and walk. I'd need to see a chiropracter with all those potatoes.
Skip- Did you read the last line? One potato per bag!
I caught the last line. You're hilarious. You had me, until the 100 lb line. :-)
Gracie- What? You don't think I could do 100lbs?
At the beginning, I went "I don't have any potato sack!!" Then mid-way, I went "you eat so much potatoes?" And at 100lb pounds, I went "you must be kidding me?" And at the end, "you are!"
Hilarious!
Oops, I missed that part. One potato I could probably do. I read your blog while I was at pro care at the Apple Store. (No, I wasn't lifting any) My only excuse.
