The whole tendency of athletics works for good. The athlete abstains from liquor and tobacco. He does not eat unwholesome food. Exercise, bathing, and rubbing down keep his body clean and healthy. At the same time his mind is filled with healthy, natural outdoor 1deals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Track and Field For centuries sculptors and poets alike have glorified the fine phy siques of track and field athletes. The Greeks considered imperfect physical development a disgrace, consequently every youth sought diligently to develop a beautiful and well proportioned body. In addi tion, each individual aspired to excel in speed, endurance, and cour age. It was only natural, therefore, that aspiring athletes should turn to track and field sports as the media through which these qualities were to be developed.

Download or read book Track Athletics Up to Date Classic Reprint written by Ellery H. Clark and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Track Athletics Up to Date To make my meaning clear, let us consider, by way of comparison, the familiar example of the attorney who 18 consulted upon a point of law. Rarely, if he 13 a man of experience, does he give his answer offhand, but, on the contrary, his first act is to consult the authorities and to read the decisions of the courts and the theories of the text writers on the point in question. Then, and then only, is he in a position to express an intelligent opinion upon the case. It is this principle which I have borne in mind in writing the present volume. First, I have endeavored to trace, with brevity, the history of track athletics; next, I have noted some of the best of the many books, pamphlets and special articles which have been written on this subject; and lastly, I have tried to summarize, in the year 1919, our present knowledge of proper methods of training and of performing the various events on track and field. The idea itself is, I think, sound, and, within its special field, not without novelty. Of the manner in which I have developed it, the reader, of course, must be the judge. I desire to record here my sincere thanks to Mr. Michael J. Conroy, of the staff of the Boston Public Library, for his unfailing kindness in helping me to bring together the varied material upon which this book is based.

Download or read book Training for Sports Classic Reprint written by Walter Camp and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Walter Camp's 1921 Training for Sports was intended to be a guide for physical education teachers, coaches, and athletes on how best to prepare their bodies for physical activity. In this sense, it may be best viewed as a guidebook rather than a step by step instruction manual. The book is divided into chapters, which focus on general physical conditioning, mental conditioning, the importance of sleep and diet, as well as specific chapters on the popular sports of the day, such as football, baseball, and track and field. It goes without saying that exercise science has progressed immensely in the nearly one hundred years that have passed since the original publication of Training for Sports. Noserious coach, trainer, or physical educator would be advised to use this book as a reference today. Techniques for both general physical conditioning and sport specific movements have evolved significantly since 1921. Today's game of football is vastly different than that of 1921. The value of Camp's book is thus the historical snapshot it provides. In 1921, training for sports was as much a preparation for a potential war effort than it was for leisure. Camp acknowledges as much in the section on general physical conditioning, stating, "The word training essentially implies a preparation; whether it be for severe physical effort as any athletic competition or military service in time of war, or merely for the ordinary conduct of life." It is clear however that Camp was an expert on the subject matter at the time of writing, and surely would be today were he still alive. He demonstrates remarkable understanding of practices that would come to be known as periodization and specialization, and discourages trainers from promoting a single-sport approach too early in a young athlete's life. Many coaches today would be wise to heed his advice. Training for Sports is recommended for anybody curious about the history of physical conditioning, particularly in the period of this book's initial publication.
