[Q]: W: Arm exercises? Is that because arms are too fat or too soft? M: Actually that's not the main reason. They say that arm exercises can make you physically healthy. W: But I was told that arm exercises could raise your blood pressure. M: Yes, but the article I read suggests some ways to make up for that. W: Really? How? M: By adding leg exercises, so that the arms don't do all the work. W: And in return, I'm sure that there's a good chance of losing weight. M: Sounds right to me. W: So what exercises do the experts suggest? M: They mentioned quite a few exercises, but one of the most popular ones is cycling. W: Good, I must try that. What was said before this conversation?
