    The Latest Fad of the New York Girl, by Emma E. Walker, MD

    "...As all girls well know, the object of all exercise is to make the blood circulate perfectly, and this cannot be better accomplished than by bag-punching. By this practice the complexion takes on the velvety texture, and the peaches and cream tints desired by every girl..."

              "The mental effect of this exercise is exhilarating as the girl must be constantly on the alert and her mind must have complete control of her body."

              How cool is it that our minds can concentrate on hitting the bag whilst at the same time zone out and listen to the beat of the music.
