Book Description
Bernarr Mcfadden (born Bernard McFadden) was nothing if not an interesting man. Considered to be a pioneer of physical culture as we know it, he was hailed by some and mocked by others. Detractors targeted him because of his tremendous ego, but no one could deny the man's love for the human body. That love shines through his prose in Physical Training-one of the first of his numerous published books. The work is quaint by today's standards of fitness and health: Macfadden's exercise equipment is antiquated (and often quite curious), his dietary advice is outdated (not surprising, given the decades of science that have elapsed), and his views on beauty are old-world. If you are looking for practical or current knowledge related to fitness, there are better places to look, but for sheer pleasure and historical appreciation, Macfadden's passion and eccentricity make Physical Training a fascinating read.This work, originally published in 1895, is reprinted by Milne Library at the State University of New York College at Geneseo as part of the Genesee Valley Historical Reprints series. The Genesee Valley Historical Collection is Milne Library's largest and most accessible collection of local history materials. Its geographical scope covers the eight counties surrounding the Genesee River in New York State: Allegany, Genesee, Livingston, Monroe, Ontario, Orleans, Steuben and Wyoming.
