grandma's lifting!!

effalunt Posts: 333 Joined: 2002/10/17	2003/07/17, 12:39 PM I went to see my grandparents the other day, and they asked my to set them up a program. They're so excited now that they have an instructor in the family. We went down to the mall and bought some dynabands because they're gentle for older folks. They're now spending fifteen minutes, three days per week with the bands on top of the hour they were already walking. I'm so proud of them, Grandpa turned 74 this week! -------------- Think you can or think you can't; either way you're right--Goethe

Which is really scary, because when something happens to my brother, they'll lose all ambition and most likely rot away on me. I only have enough strength to support them for so long. -------------- If hard work and persistence were the keys to success, most people would opt to pick the lock.~Dick
