Excerpt from Exercise and Training, Their Effects Upon HealthIt would, however, deprive those popular amuse ments which demand much activity of the pleasure and advantage which may 'be derived from them if they were replaced by any regular gymnastic exercise, but there are certain principles which ought to be understood by all who indulge in them particularly when they submit to such rules as are in force amongst boating men at our Universities during the period of training.It seems desirable that, instead of seizing upon opportunities for discouraging rowing and similar amusements, some attempt should be made to establish on a firm scientific basis a system of rules by which those who have not yet had experience may be guided, and the unfortunate accidents which sometimes occur to render such amusements unpopular may be avoided.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
