Robert Kemp Philp
620
1745.
Three
Principal
Points.
Three
principal
points
in
the
manner
of
taking
exercise
should
be
attended
to:
i.
The
kind
of
exercise.
ii.
The
proper
time
for
exercise,
iii.
The
duration
of
it.
With
respect
to
the
kinds
of
exercise,
the
various
species
of
it
may
be
divided
into
active
and
passive.
Among
the
first,
which
admit
of
being
considerably
diversified,
may
be
enumerated
walking,
running,
leaping,
swimming,
riding,
fencing,
different
sorts
of
athletic
games,
&c.
Among
the
latter,
or
passive
kinds
of
exercise
may
be
comprised
riding
in
a
carriage,
sailing,
friction,
swinging
&c.
1746.
Active
Exercises.
Active
exercises
are
more
beneficial
to
youth,
to
the
middle-aged,
to
the
robust
in
general,
and
particularly
to
the
corpulent
and
the
plethoric.
1747.
Passive
Exercises.
Passive
kinds
of
exercise,
on
the
contrary,
are
better
calculated
for
children;
old,
thin,
and
emaciated
persons
of
a
delicate
and
debilitated
constitution;
and
particularly
for
the
asthmatic
and
consumptive.
1748.
Time.
The
time
at
which
exercise
is
most
proper
depends
on
such
a
variety
of
concurrent
circumstances,
that
it
does
not
admit
of
being
regulated
by
any
general
rules,
and
must
therefore
be
collected
from
the
observations
made
on
the
effects
of
air,
food,
drink,
&c.
1749.
Duration.
With
respect
to
the
duration
of
exercise,
there
are
other
particulars,
relative
to
a
greater
or
less
degree
of
fatigue
attending
the
different
species,
and
utility
of
it
in
certain
states
of
the
mind
and
body,
which
must
determine
this
consideration
as
well
as
the
preceding.
