> After a couple of weeks, move up to 10-lb. potato sacks. Then
> 50-lb. potato sacks, and then 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.
> 
> Once you feel confident at that level, put one potato in each
> of the sacks.
