Cardiofitness can Save Your Life
Convincing Research Now Shows how Correct Moderate Exercise
Can Add Ten Healthy Years to Life
Polls show that most people who exercise today do it to protect their health. Author Forrest Blanding reveals from a ten-year scientific analysis of more than five hundred key research studies that regular and correct moderate exercise could add seven to ten healthy years to the life of an average 50 year old US man or woman. He shows in his new book “Cardiofitness Can Save Your Life” that the #1 key to a better and longer life is a measurable fitness of our heart and its cardiovascular system. 85% of our health benefits from exercise derive from this cardiofitness. Yet few today including the doctors and health experts know their cardiofitness and what it means to their health.
The author shows that many people today are wasting enormous amounts of time doing exercise that may produce only minimal benefit to their health. Cardiofitness does not develop simply from calories of exercise. It develops best from just two hours per week or about 17 minutes per day of certain levels of correct monitored exercises that most people can do comfortably. The author describes a new Cardio 120 program, and a new Cardio Point method that can show people how to develop the cardiofitness they need for best health. Many can double their health benefit simply by upgrading the exercise they now do.
Blanding provides a first easily understandable scientific measure of this cardiofitness called the CFR that identifies it simply as a percentage of average for age and gender, and describes simple tests for measuring it. He shows that our CFR can identify a ten-fold difference in risk of heart disease and several fold differences in risks of cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer’s and other major terminators of life. Incredibly, these astonishing differences in our health risk that are now verified in dozens of published scientific papers seem to be now largely unknown.
