520    A fascinating cultural history of fitness, from Greek 
       antiquity to the era of the "big-box gym" and beyond, 
       exploring the ways in which human exercise has changed 
       over time-and what we can learn from our ancestors. We 
       humans have been conditioning our bodies for more than 2,
       500 years, yet it's only recently that treadmills and 
       weight machines have become the gold standard of fitness. 
       For all this new technology, are we really healthier, 
       stronger, and more flexible than our ancestors? Where Born
       to Run began with an aching foot, Lift begins with a 
       broken gym system-one founded on high-tech machinery and 
       isolation techniques that aren't necessarily as productive
       as we think. Looking to the past for context, Daniel 
       Kunitz crafts an insightful cultural history of the human 
       drive for exercise, concluding that we need to get back to
       basics to be truly healthy. Lift takes us on an 
       enlightening tour through time, beginning with the ancient
       Greeks, who made a cult of the human body-the word 
       gymnasium derives from the Greek word for "naked"-and 
       following Roman legions, medieval knights, Persian 
       pahlevans, and eighteenth-century German gymnasts. Kunitz 
       discovers the seeds of the modern gym in nineteenth-
       century Paris, where weight lifting machines were first 
       employed, and takes us all the way up to the game-changer:
       the feminist movement of the 1960s, which popularized 
       aerobics and calisthenics classes. This ignited the first 
       true global fitness revolution, and Kunitz explores how it
       brought us to where we are today. Once a fast-food inhaler
       and substance abuser, Kunitz reveals his own decade-long 
       journey to becoming ultra-fit using ancient principals of 
       strengthening and conditioning. With Lift, he argues that,
       as a culture, we are finally returning to this natural 
       ideal-and that it's to our great benefit to do so.
