Gymnastic Exercises, Without Apparatus: According to Ling's System, for the Due Development and Strengthening of the Human Body (Classic Reprint) - Brossura
Sinossi
Excerpt from Gymnastic Exercises, Without Apparatus: According to Ling's System, for the Due Development and Strengthening of the Human Body
During the last twenty-five years, I have tried to introduce the elements of physical education into all elementary, secondary and higher schools. The science of physical education Includes the knowledge of the structure and functions of the human body; the knowledge of preserving our health, usually called hygiene; further, the theory and practice of those elementary exercises, which without the use of any external apparatus, are sufficient for the harmonious development of all parts of the human body. Good books on the structure and functions of the human body have been published in sufficient number. Popular books on hygiene are less numerous, and on school hygiene still more scarce.
I therefore tried, about twenty; years ago, through the establishment of the Ladies' Sanitary Association, which has hitherto published and distributed more than a million of sanitary tracts, to diminish the prevalent ignorance regarding the preservation of health. The National Health Association lately established on the model of the Ladies' Sanitary Association is also trying to act in the same direction.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book provides an instructional guide to a series of exercises designed by Swedish physician and physical education pioneer Dr. Pehr Henrik Ling. This system of exercises, known as Ling's gymnastics, was developed in the early 19th century and focused on improving an individual's overall physical health and strength through precise body movements. The author presents Ling's key ideas on the purpose of rational gymnastics and underscores the importance of involving all parts of the body in exercise to achieve balanced development. Notably, this book is among the earliest works that address educational and medical gymnastics. Emphasizing gradual progression and appropriate exercise selection based on each individual's abilities, the author outlines elementary exercises that form the basis of Ling's approach. These exercises target various body parts, including the arms, legs, head, and trunk. Step-by-step instructions are provided, guiding readers through the correct form and execution of each movement. By incorporating these exercises into daily routines, individuals can enhance their strength, flexibility, and overall well-being, promoting a healthy body and a healthy mind.
