Under Cover of Bed Clothes.
The Simplest and Most Effective System of Exercise Ever Devised!
All muscles and all organs increase in size, strength and elasticity when properly excercised. This is the secret of Health, Strength, Elasticity of body, and longevity of life.
The movements, or muscular contractions and alternate relaxations, described in this system of Phyiscal Culture are not specially new, but my adaptation of those exercises, that they may be effectively and systematically practiced under the most comfortable consitions possible (LYING IN BED!) is, to the best of my knowledge, a novel idea and a step in the advance in the most important of all sciences, the science of health, strength, elasticity of body, and longevity.
The ease with which the exercises can be performed under these conditions, the small expense of the four simple aids or devices which I use, and the robust health, vital energy, and muscular development which I have obtained at an age when such conditions are very unusual, will commend themselves and invite, at least, a trial. But that trial must be something more than a spasmodic effort made once or twice a week.
To effect any material improvement, determine upon an hour in the early morning when you will commence practice, the number of minutes you will devote to it, and then "STICK TO IT !" daily, systematically, regularly, until it becomes a hibit; then you will go through the exercises without conscious effort of the mind, as habit rules our lives, and such a habit will surely bring to you health, strangth, and elasticity of body; will increase your vitality and prolong your life.
