So, unlike millions of Boomers, I actually threw tantrums to get my Mom to buy MORE spinach. <BR/><BR/>I also wanted massive forearms like Popeye's - so, at the age of ten I started doing countless wrist curls with a solid dumbbell. <BR/><BR/>I started out with a ten pound, then a fifteen pound weight, then I stayed with a 25-pound weight until, as a senior in high school, my forearms were so huge that I was looked at as some kind of freak.<BR/><BR/>I gave up on wrist curls until my second marriage years later when I started to use a 50-pound dumbbell because my wife told me that she loved my "Popeye" forearms.<BR/><BR/>But, I digress...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
