Excerpt from A Natural Method of Physical Training: Making Muscle and Reducing Flesh Without Dieting or Apparatus

Physical training is "in the air" but the observer of current events is able to discover in reports from the athletic world that there is something wrong about most modern methods of training. Muscle-molding schemes that make men die in middle life may be pictorially interesting and may sound heroic, but they are not for that wise average mortal who wishes simply to feel light and strong and, if need be, find himself ready to safely enter on any reasonable physical undertaking. The author of this book believes that there is more "straining" than "training" in a good many popular systems practiced in and out of the college gymnasium, and the method he himself advocates perhaps radically departs from familiar systems.
