Beyond Vitruvius: A Unified View of Strength and the Fundamental Properties of the Universe (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781493698622)

The drawing of DaVinci's Vitruvian Man ushered in a belief that man was just a collection of simple machines that could be understood through dissection and measurement. But the truth is that man is an undivided whole that expresses an organization of nonlinear relationships. Moreover, man is not just some isolated entity that is "subject to the forces of the universe" - man is an expression of those fundamental forces! So instead of offering another workout program or exercise regimen that exhorts you to "fight gravity", this book explains how gravity (along with electromagnetism) shapes you, everything you do and everything that exists in the universe. You do not exist in a gravitational field - you are an expression of gravity! You cannot reach your full potential for expressing movement until you have a more realistic and symmetrical understanding of exactly what movement is. This book explains how movement as we know it can actually be traced back to the formation of the universe and can be seen in various forms today, both organic and inorganic.
