CULTURE: DDW July challenge by Anniemay

"Physical culture is a health and strength training movement that originated during the 19th century. Certain items of equipment and types of exercise were common to several different physical culture systems, including exercises with Indian clubs, medicine balls, wooden or iron wands and dumbbells. Combat sports such as fencing, boxing and wrestling were also widely practiced in physical culture schools, and were touted as forms of physical culture in their own right." - Wikipedia
