Help Aids to Muscular exertion

When a man
applies his muscular
force in any
other way than by
his weight what
motion he gives to
any foreign body
is relative to his
own: his own
is fixed attached to the
common mass
only by his feet,
whenever he exerts
himself in
standing, which
he does in perhaps
all other
cases except rowing.
The medium force with
by which he is fixed
to the earth is no
other than his
weight: therefore
the force he can
exert will depend
whatever be his
muscular strength
will depend upon
and be limited
by: 1. his weight,
2. where the
perpendicular
distance from
his feet of the
point at which
the exertion is applied made
or

or rather the perpendicular
height
above an horizontal
line
above and parallel
to the
on which from
the horizontal
line on which
he stands: the
effort force with which
he can act make
depends upon
his fixity: the
fixity depends
upon the weight
and the height
at which a force
is applied to
overcome it: every
effort of his
tending to give
motion to a foreign
body is
a force tending
to overcome it
such fixity.

To produce
force by their
hands men
lean incline themselves
to bring the
point at which
they apply their
force nearer to
the abovementioned
base

base of their
fixity, or raise
their feet or
foot to acquire obtain
a new and more
advantageous
base of fixity.
A very inclined
position is troublesome,
because
as soon as you
are passed the
center of gravity
no exertion is
necessary to prevent
your falling: but in
turning a winch,
where the main body
is stationary,
and the force is
produced chiefly
by the contraction extension
of contraction of
the arms, to admitt
of the force
being as great as
the muscular
exertion can
produce, that
is to ensure an
undisturbed fixity
to bring his
fixity to its maximum,
a fixed
frame rail at the
height of his
shoulders
