Book excerpt: Excerpt from Athletic Gymnastic Exercises Gums of every description formed a most important part of the national events of the ancient Greeks and Romans. The principal of the four games publicly solemnised in Greece were the Olympic; but games of different kinds were exercised by the early Romans, which consisted of chariot and horse-racin g, combats, and theatrical sports. They likewise exercised them selves before bathing in leaping, running, throwing the javelin, quoit, &c. The athletic exercises practised among these nations consisted of wrestling, boxing, and other such exercises, requiring great strength. Prizes were given to those who came of victors, likewise many privileges were granted to them. The Olympic games, the chief of the festivals of the Greeks, were celebrated every fifth year, and consisted of religious ceremonies, athletic contests, and races.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Power and Health Through Progressive Exercise It must not be thought, however, that this book deals wholly with heavy gymnastics, weight-lifting, and feats of strength. Many light exercises are given as being valuable to promote elasticity and suppleness; and, in addi tion to these, - as an apprenticeship of mode rate exercises is absolutely necessary in order that one may become capable of the simplest exhibition of force, - many intermediate exer cises are carefully described, and their effects discussed. The effects of common indoor and outdoor athletic sports and exercises are gone into. All which, it is hoped, will make this volume a complete manual of physical culture, suitable alike for those boys and girls, men and women, who may wish, without the aid of a teacher, to make the best of their bodies.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dick's Art of Gymnastics: Containing Practical and Progressive Exercises Applicable to All the Principal Apparatus of a Well-Appointed Gymnasium Plainly Described The importance of physical training for the development of muscle and strengthening the human frame has always been freely admitted, and in modern times athletic exercises and field sports form a necessary adjunct to a thorough or collegiate education. In the early and palmy days of Ancient Greece, periodical exhibitions of individual prowess in feats combining strength, agility and skill were deemed of national importance, and the celebrated Games at Olympia and other prominent places always attracted crowds of visitors, and were highly appreciated by all who assisted at them. In all these games the contestants for supremacy and fame were stripped almost nude, and hence the term Gymnast is applied to the votaries of Athletic skill, being derived from a Greek word signifying naked. Those ancient Games included Racing, Wrestling, and various field Sports, which in modern times are classed under Athletics, the term Gymnastics being specially given to the exercises performed by the aid of those appliances which constitute the modern Gymnasium.

N. A. Inter collegiate and Interscholastic teams can be very much improved by having set exercises rather than the present method, which' consists of three elective exercises: Firstly, because of the extreme difficulty in judging elective work. It is hard to hnd three judges all of whom place the same relative value upon a complicated gymnastic feat. Very often the competitor is not given proper credit for the work performed; and again, the per former oftentimes places too much value on his special exercise. At any rate, there is much wrangling, and this tends to retard the popularity of this sport. Secondly: The member of a gymnastic team must specialize too much; must confine himself to one piece of apparatus in order to properly compete with a specialist. In doing this, he very often loses sight of the all around work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of Elementary School Gymnastics Primitive life. - During all these ages our ancestors lived a life of the most strenuous physical exertion. As far back as. Savage life in the temperate zone can be traced, the men hunted, fished, carried on war, and took part in religious ceremonies; the women made the clothing and the shelter, prepared the food, and made all the utensils needed in their work, besides caring for the children and the domestic animals. These two types of bodily exercise are quite different; that of the men was severe to the highest degree for a time, with periods of complete rest between; a type of exercise we now call athletic. That of the women was less severe but more steady and continuous; of the type of manual labor. As a result of these occupations both men and women were strong and vigorous; they lived and thrived in spite of unsanitary conditions and exposure to all kinds of weather and hardship. These two types of bodily exercise, carried on so vigorously for so many successive genera tions, no doubt did much to develop the two types of bodily form and proportions that men and women now inherit. Civilized life - If we continue to study the occupations of our ancestors down to a later day, we find that they changed their habits of life a little from time to time, but until very lately they still led lives of great bodily activity. The pioneers of the early colonies along our Atlantic coast, and even those who settled our own state in the early part of the last century, were people of strong physique, manv of them not a whit inferior in strength and endurance to the savages who lived here before them. One hundred years ago fully 95970 of the population of the United States lived in the country, and the same was true of the middle west fifty years ago. Men cleared the forest with the axe, sowed and planted by hand, 'cut their grain with sickles, and threshed it with fiails. Women did all the household work, including all of the dairy and laundry work, made all the clothing, and not far back they also made the cloth from which the clothing was made. Pioneer life called for muscular work and developed a sturdy race of people. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This does not cover the entire term of most school sessions, as it is considered best to use review work during times of examination and promotion, rather than to tax pupils with new exercises at such times. While each course is complete in itself, the two kinds of work are designed to be interchanged - half of the school year to be devoted to free hand exercise and the succeeding half to the apparatus.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of the Gymnastic Exercises: As Practised by the Junior Class in Amherst College, Amherst, Mass The need of a manual like the present is seen in the fact that three editions of a similar work have been issued at Amherst during the past few years. The recent advances made in this department, and the increased facilities of our new Pratt Gymnasium, now ready for occupancy, seem to demand a new manual, and one which shall more fully meet the practical wants of teachers and educational institutions everywhere. The object of this manual is to furnish a series of exercises, by the use of which a teacher can directly instruct a class in light gymnastics; or an ingenious person may take the leading points in these exercises, and adapt them to peculiar wants and circumstances, thus giving a greater variety and pleasure of movement. There is also given a series of simple military movements that may be made by a class or company of from twenty to a hundred, - male or female, - either in a small out-of-doors area, or in an ordinary hall.
