We have tried to show in the preceding chapter how the brain and the psychical faculties can play an important part in bodily exercises. It remains for us to show here that muscular work may sometimes, on the contrary, be performed independently of the brain and without the intervention of the will. We must first recall the fact that the brain is not indispensable to the performance of certain movements. The spinal cord suffices in certain cases to throw the muscles into action, for it is a nerve-centre, and consequently a focus of independent motor activity. But the movements due to the unaided action of the spinal cord have a peculiar character: they are involuntary. The will in fact has a direct action only on the cells of the brain, and cannot influence the independent activity of the spinal cord. This latter is only...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Physiology of Muscular Exercise I'n no science is the advance at any one time general. Some sections of the line are pushed forward while other parts may remain for years with little movement, until in their turn they are enabled to progress in consequence of the support afforded 'by the advance of the adjacent Sections. The increasing number of series of monographs in different sciences is a recognition of this fact, as well as of the concentration of interest which characterises this age of specialisation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Body in Health The aim has been kept in view of awakening in the young a normal desire to live in such a manner as to develop strength and preserve health, because in this way one may best achieve success in securing the things which he desires, and in avoiding the disabilities and pains which otherwise are likely to occupy a considerable part of his life. Comparatively little attention is given to anatomy, and only sufficient physiology is presented to constitute a basis for the facts of health which are discussed. Very extensive use is made of photographs and diagrams illustrating everyday life in the City and in the country. There is at least one interesting and practical original exercise suggested for every principle of health presented in each lesson. In order further to assist the teacher and the pupil, a list of questions, fully covering the text, has been given at the end of each Chapter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Strength and How to Obtain It Hundreds of letters reach me daily, asking Can I become strong? Yes; you can all become strong if you have the will and use it in the right direction. But, in the first place, you must learn to exercise your mind. This first of all lessons in physical training is of the utmost importance. For on it the whole of my system depends. If physical exercise alone and unaided could achieve the desired end, then would every one who, like the breaker of stones, has to use his muscles to earn his daily bread, become, in a popular acceptation of the term, a strong 1 man. The breaker of stones, however, never usemhis' mind. He has to get through a given amount of work, and his method is purely mechanical. Though he may use his muscles in hard work every day of the year it is unlikely that his strength will ever materially increase.

Download or read book Applied Exercise and Sport Physiology With Labs written by Terry J. Housh and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-04-04 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applied Exercise & Sport Physiology, Fourth Edition, presents theory and application in an appealing, balanced, and manageable format. By providing an essential introduction to the systems of the human body and covering important aspects of exercise and sport physiology, it will be a useful resource for students as they learn to become exercise science professionals, physician's assistants, physical therapists, physical educators, or coaches. It provides the right amount of practical information they will need to apply in hospitals, clinics, schools, and settings such as health clubs, youth sport leagues, and similar environments. The authors have carefully designed the material to be covered easily in one semester, in an introductory course, but the book can also serve as a foundation for advanced courses. Its 18 lab experiences are matched to relevant chapters and complement the topics covered; they allow readers to apply physiological principles to exercise and sport, provide opportunities for hands-on learning and application of the scientific principles, and often don't require complex equipment.

Download or read book A Text Book of Human Physiology Classic Reprint written by Albert Philson Brubaker and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-12-28 with total page 758 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Text-Book of Human Physiology An animal organism in the living condition exhibits a series of phenomena which relate to growth, movement, mentality, and re production. During the period preceding birth, as well as during the period included between birth and adult life, the individual grows in size and complexity from the introduction and assimilation of material from without. Throughout its life the animal exhibits a series of movements, in virtue of which it not only changes the relation Of one part of its body to another, but also changes its posi tion relatively to its environment. If, in the execution of these movements, the parts are directed to the overcoming of opposing forces, such as gravity, friction, cohesion, elasticity, etc., the animal may be said to be doing work. The result of normal growth is the attainment of a physical development that will enable the animal, and, more especially, man, to perform the work necessitated by the nature of its environment and the character of its organization. In man, and probably in lower animals as well, mentality manifests itself as intellect, feeling, and volition. At a definite period in the life of the animal it reproduces itself, in consequence of which the species to which it belongs is perpetuated. The study of the phenomena of growth, movement, mentality, and reproduction constitutes the science of animal physiology. But as these general activities are the resultant of and dependent on the special activities of the individual structures of which an animal body 'is composed, physiology in its more restricted and generally accepted sense is the science which investigates the actions or functions of the individual organs and tissues of the body and the physical and chemic conditions which underlie and determine them.
