Book Description
Excerpt from Manual for Physical Culture and Muscular Development Stand facing machine [see cut] pulling both hands, first into right side then into left side as shown in cut. May be done twenty times each way. When pulling into left side you develop muscle of right arm from palm of hand following therefrom down forearm to inner part of bicep to pectoral muscle and up left forearm and back part of upper arm to the trapezium. When pulling to right side the muscles taken are reversed on each arm. Heretofore I have quoted this as a sparring motion although it does not take in the exact muscles used in sparring, for you must turn sideways to strike an effective blow in sparring, and furthermore the muscles must be loose to strike properly, which condition can not be attained in this motion.

Book Description
Excerpt from Manual of Physical Culture: For Schools, Gymnastic Associations, and Private Use Plain and earnest explanations of exercises, also a sharp and decisive execution command, will carry a class directly along; such commands help greatly toward good success in physical, mental, and disciplinary regard. To gain such success the teacher will have to make himself thoroughly acquainted with the following advice before beginning with instruction. The pupil shall learn to master the body. For that purpose it is necessary that every movement be executed vigorously and grace fully, to the exact direction. When calling for an Arm or Leg exercise, the remaining parts of the body should be kept in a firm and quiet position, governed by a firm Will, thus combining Strength with Beauty!

Book Description
"To exert your gripping powers you have to bring your mental powers into play. You may perform free exercises until the cows come home with little benefit to your health, strength or muscularity if your mind is wandering from the thoughts of breakfast to your best girl, for it is only when you focus your full attention to the muscles being used that the work becomes strenuous and result-getting. Attempt to pick up a weight from the floor, one just within your compass, and you will find that unless you bring your full powers to bear on the job in hand, you will not succeed in raising it an inch. You have to give your full and undivided attention to the task of raising the weight; otherwise you will fail. We therefore see that the practice of exercises calculated to augment one's gripping powers must of necessity improve and strengthen one's Power of Will with untold benefits to one's whole career". - Edward Aston Visit our website and see our many books at PhysicalCultureBooks.com
