Thomas Huxley

I am content with nothing, restless and ambitious... and I despise myself for the vanity, which formed half the stimulus to my exertions. Oh would that I were one of those plodding wise fools who having once set their hand to the plough go on nothing doubting.

English Scientist

Gunnar Peterson

I usually suggest that people do their steady-state cardio on the days that they're not with me; they really don't need a cardio babysitter. When working with athletes, I try to pair the interval with the exertion patterns of their respective sport.

American Businessman

John Stuart Mill

The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

English Philosopher

Charles Buck

There is also a perfection of degrees, by which a person performs all the commands of God, with the full exertion of all his powers, without the least defect. This is what the law of God requires, but what the saints cannot attain to in this life.

Robert Dale Owen

After voluntary exertions on the part of our people to which the history of the world furnishes no parallel, is the old root of bitterness still to remain in the ground, to sprout and bear fruit in the future as it has borne fruit in the past?

Scottish Politician

Martin Luther King, Jr.

Human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable... Every step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering, and struggle; the tireless exertions and passionate concern of dedicated individuals.

I was never much of a musical theater guy, but I have so much more respect for the art form, the physical exertion of doing eight shows on Broadway a week, I cannot even fathom it.

American Actor

Ralph Cudworth

Knowledge is not a passion from without the mind, but an active exertion of the inward strength, vigor and power of the mind, displaying itself from within.

British Theologian

Rupert Murdoch

The cold, commercial word 'market' disguises its human character - a market is a collection of our aspirations, exertions, choices and desires.

American Publisher

Gerrit Smith

Truth and mercy require the exertion - never the suppression, of man's noble rights and powers.

American Politician

Exertion refers to effort that can be both physical, like running, or mental, like studying.

Physical or Mental

Exertion often shows visible signs, such as sweating or looking tired.

Visible Signs

The word can imply different levels of effort, from minimal to extreme.

Intensity

Exertion quantifies the energy needed for activities, often physical ones.

Measure of Energy

People may underestimate the exertion needed for a task and overcommit.

Underestimation

 So if the amygdala is excited, and this is something important, the messages then cascade into the autonomic nervous system. Your heart starts beating faster. You start sweating to dissipate the heat that you're going to create from muscular exertion. And that's fortunate, because we can put two electrodes on your palm

 over 50 English prisons boasted a treadmill, and America, a similar amount. Unsurprisingly, the exertion combined with poor nutrition saw many prisoners suffer breakdowns and injuries, not that prison guards seemed to care.
