Personal Review: Faith-based Fitness The Medical Program
That Uses Spiritual Motivation To Achieve Maximum Health And
Add Years To Your Life by Kenneth H. Cooper
This is the first book by Cooper that I read. And it is an excellent resource
for the person wanting to get into shape. Cooper presents all the
information one needs to get started and stay motivated.What makes this

book unique is the Christian orientation Cooper gives to fitness. He states,
"... the belief required for a `fitness conversion' involves a conviction about
your body and health that should be an outgrowth of your basic spiritual
worldview" (p. 17).So the faith that Cooper is referring to in the title is not
just a belief in the importance of fitness but one that is an outgrowth of
strong spiritual convictions. Such a faith would include the belief that the
body is sacred and should be taken care of. He even includes a chapter of
soul-searching questions for the reader to ask to determine your spiritual
state as it relates to your health and suggestion for improving it.The bulk of
the book is occupied with giving specific workout schedules to follow for
starting an exercise program. These include exercises for increasing ones
level of endurance, flexibility, and strength. Cooper outlines programs for
walking, jogging, cycling (both outdoor and stationary bikes), and
swimming. So the reader can choose what type of exercise most fits you
and have a detailed routine to follow. If you stick with the routines you are
sure to increase your level of fitness. And Cooper provides
encouragements along the way to help you stay motivated. He even
dispels some exercise myths that might discourage the budding exercise
enthusiast.I read this book at a time when I was really making an effort to
get back into shape. I didn't follow the specific routines Cooper gives, but I
did get many good ideas from reading this book. It gave me a standard by
which to measure my fitness levels. And I appreciated the fact that Cooper
is a Christian and looks at the spiritual side of health, even citing a few
Bible verses along the way.So if the reader has allowed yourself to get out
of shape as I did, I would strongly encourage you attain this book to help
you get motivated and to give you the information you need to begin
improving your health.This book provides such a good treatment on how to
go about starting an exercise routine that I refer to it in the chapter on this
subject in my book "Creationist Diet: Nutrition and God-given Foods
According to the Bible." My book provides an overview of the most
important points one needs to know, and Cooper's book provides the
details.
