FATHER OF AEROBICS: DR. KENNETH COOPER
What's the secret to a long and healthy life? In this episode of The Shift with Sonia Azad, we get the answer from the man who invented aerobics, Dr. Kenneth Cooper. Now age 93, Dr. Cooper sits down with Sonia to reflect on his 40 year running career, the resurgence of interest in physical fitness, and how he shifted from a 29-year old with hypertension and pre-diabetes to a two-time Boston marathon finisher. Dr. Cooper is passionate about getting preventive medicine into core curriculums in medical schools. He has two documentaries on the power of prevention available to watch at: www.cooperaerobics.com/documentary.
