For many people, growing old means gradually slowing
down-losing strength, balance, and even mental clarity. But
is this physical decline inevitable? "Absolutely not!" say
the Coopers.
Start Strong, Finish Strong is
about living the life we all want-now and as we age. It's
about breaking free from chronic pain and nagging injuries.
It's about refusing to give up the activities we love and
discovering new ones along the way.
Dr. Kenneth H.
Cooper, the "father of aerobics" and the world's leading
authority on preventive medicine, joins forces with his son,
Dr. Tyler C. Cooper. Together they give readers the tools to
start strong and finish strong. Exercise is the primary way
to keep our bodies strong, flexible, and vital, so it's
obviously a centerpiece to the plan. Other equally important
components include the Coopers' unique "gold-standard"
annual medical exams that can pinpoint potential health
problems before they get out of control; good food in
healthy portions; a strategic approach to supplements; help
with bad habits like smoking and substance abuse; and a
well-developed mind-spirit practice. Readers who follow Dr.
Ken and Dr. Tyler Cooper's individualized, adjustable
program can expect to feel younger with each passing year.
The Coopers' simple, intergenerational strategy for
starting and finishing strong tackles obstacles that
interfere with true fitness, gets to the root of common
excuses, helps readers to identify special motivational
"buttons" that will make them feel good as they get in
shape, and explores the latest science that can enhance
personal progress. Along the way, the Coopers bring their
years of experience to readers with engaging case studies
and stories.
