Dr Ken Cooper’s Steps to Good Health Gets a Much Needed Upgrade

He’s the father of the aerobics movement whose books, medical clinic, research and lectures have probably converted a million or more couch potatoes into regular exercisers.

Predictions of the future are often wildly inaccurate. For example, Back To The Future promised us hoverboards, while almost everyone who saw Blade Runner couldn’t wait to get their hands on a flying car. Unfortunately, neither are readily available to the general public yet, which is a crying shame. Casting an eye into the future and speculating how the world may look at that time, is never an easy task – there are simply too many variables involved. New technologies which no-one saw coming may be pulled from the aether, while existing fields which have substantial growth potential, may fail…
