From the Back Cover
Praise for Fit to Lead
"If you want to get more out of life and lead others to do the same, I strongly recommend that you read this book."
--Kenneth H. Cooper, M.D., M.P.H., "the father of aerobics" and author of Faith-Based Fitness, from the foreword
"Fit to Lead hits the nail right on the head. So many young men and women in their thirties and forties are pushing to succeed and forgetting about their body development. The end result is of course that when they get into their fifties and sixties they are unable to perform at their peak level because they haven't looked after their bodies. This book can help solve the problem, if you take it to heart and put it into action. I thoroughly recommend it."
--Dr. Peter J. Daniels, founder and president of the World Centre for Entrepreneurial Studies
"The best fitness book I've ever read. Fit To Lead can help the busiest person achieve their fitness goals".
--Chuck Norris, Actor
