About this audiobook
Improve your body, improve your career: An executive fitness plan by experts from the Cooper Wellness Clinic
• Tom Monaghan, the founder of Domino's Pizza, runs four miles a day and spend 30 minutes on the Nautilus machine
• Dr. Thomas Frist Jr., CEO of Columbia/HCA Healthcare, uses time between flights to jog around airports
• Julian C. Day, chief financial officer for Sears, Roebuck & Company, surfs
• President George W. Bush runs three miles a day, four days a week
Why do these four extremely busy and powerful executives place fitness at the top of their priorities list? Because leaders who are physically fit are better able to handle the enormous demands and pressures that confront them, including endless meetings, grueling travel schedules, high pressure, and stress. For years, The Cooper Wellness Program in Texas has taught high-level executives (including President Bush) the financial benefits of a fitness program. Now this two cd plus one cd-Rom program brings an eight-week, three-part fitness formula to executives across the nation, using the best knowledge available to help busy leaders achieve not just the obvious health benefits, but more effective performance on the job.
