START YOUR BODY RIGHT

is the point; muscle is a series of iibcrs made up of even smaller ones and through these run tiny veins and blood vessels. When person eAer- clses he contracts the muscle and this rclaNes if. The contraction squee2es out blood that has been standing there. like wringor squce2es water from clothing With the relaxation fresh blood comes in. The result IS q good, healthy cleaning out Of various blood-containing chambers.
 That's what you want to think about in muscular exercise.

 And. while so doing, the muscles will automatically tone up."
