This handbook of physical fitness from the Edwardian age is both refreshingly practical and amusingly eccentric.
This handbook of physical fitness from the Edwardian age is both refreshingly practical and amusingly eccentric. Dynamic good health is the aim—not giant muscles—and much care and attention are given to the crucial abilities of relaxation, flexibility, and good breathing.
Specific instructions are provided for strengthening the arms, legs, hips, and shoulders. Covering topics such as 'How to Stand' and 'How to Walk', the author also addresses 'Sleeping at Will' through the process of 'Self-Magnetizing', before explaining more advanced exercises such as 'Dorsal Breathing' and 'The Liver Squeezer'.
If rugged health and fitness are your aim, then Physical Training Simplified will unlock your natural vim and vigour.
