I know the exercise you are talking about. Until 2 years ago I went to the gym everyday but Sunday (it was closed). I was hooked on the weight machines and had some pretty muscular arms. But I got out of the habit and now have no desire to work out so hard (1 hr/day on weight machines and 1 hour on aerobic).<BR/><BR/>Dianne, in the summer I don't really worry about it because I do believe the gardening is enough to keep me limber.Diana LaMarrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11324428666401187803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735463.post-1163777766005172482006-11-17T10:36:00.000-05:002006-11-17T10:36:00.000-05:00If it wasn't 'When Harry Met Sally', it was that o...If it wasn't 'When Harry Met Sally', it was that other Billy Crystal movie...about the comic.Diannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00335147609261707774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735463.post-1163777701833598632006-11-17T10:35:00.000-05:002006-11-17T10:35:00.000-05:00These photos look like a page from an exercise boo...These photos look like a page from an exercise book! And they are good for 'the girls' too (even though you don't look like you have the same problem I have). <BR/>I have done what the commentator above suggested-without weights. I have touchy shoulder blades and have injured that area and was in pain for 3 weeks. <BR/>I've heard that saggy arms wave back at you-wasn't it a joke or something in 'When Harry Met Sally'? : )<BR/>With all you gardening (digging), I don't think you need to worry about that!Diannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00335147609261707774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735463.post-1163770481518043092006-11-17T08:34:00.000-05:002006-11-17T08:34:00.000-05:00Hi Zoey:I read your blog every day and enjoy it ve...Hi Zoey:<BR/>I read your blog every day and enjoy it very much - I especially love the stuff about gardening. I go to the gym about 5 times a week (less in the summer because of gardening) and take some specialty classes while I'm there. The best exercises for "wings" is to hold weights with arms straight above your head and then bending arms back behind your head as far as is comfortable while keeping elbows pointing straight ahead.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
