Where this comes from

Abstract

My great-grandmother worked the fields, helped out in the family corn-broom factory, and raised nine children who played as a team in neighborhood baseball games. Along the way she undoubtedly met the surgeon general's recommendations for fitness, with ample weight-bearing exercise and strength training to boot.
