The Cooper Institute is grounded in science with a mission to improve health and wellness through research, education and advocacy. Our founder, Dr. Kenneth H. Cooper, is a true pioneer in the field of exercise as medicine. Under his guiding light, the role of physical activity and healthy living to promote both health and wellness has led to dramatic societal changes, making a powerful impact on public health over the past 50 years.
Today, it is well known that physical activity and fitness are imperative for better overall health. Despite that fact, the obesity and inactivity crisis continues. In 2019, we continued to follow this critical vision.
