The development of the 5-Factor Fitness pro- 4 gram is a logical extension of his education and interest in health and 5 fitness. 6 5-Factor Fitnesscaptures the essence of a successful approach to 7 physical fitness by applying Harley’s creative version of the standard 8 principles of balance, variety, stress modification, and minimal-time in- 9 volvement to physical activity and eating. His program is innovative, ap- 10 plicable to all ages and adaptable for different lifestyles, yet safe and 11 conservative in the best sense of the word. And he allows for the imper- 12 ative “free choice” experiences, which are so often denied on other pro- 13 grams. His explanations and rationales of the various exercises and 14 eating plans are simple and easy to understand and follow. His use of 15 visual imagery for the exercises and building-a-house analogy for nutri- 16 tion information make his work accessible to every reader, no matter 17 what their level of experience or expertise. 18 5-Factor Fitnesspresents a well-conceived, sensible and useful plan 19 that can be easily incorporated into an individual’s lifestyle, and that 20 will yield positive health benefits. 21 —Roger Kelton, Ph.D. 22 Chair, School of Kinesiology and Health Science, 23 York University, Toronto, Canada 24 25 26 27 28 29 30S 31R 3rd Pass Pages 16028_01_01-176_r13rs.qxd 4/25/05 7:37 AM Page 1 1 2 3 introduction 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 R ecently, I had a short layover in Chicago at O’Hare Airport, 15 where I was grabbing a paper at the newsstand. Behind me in 16 line were two women, one twenty-something and the other about 17 forty-five. They were looking at a magazine and commenting on 18 a photo of actress Halle Berry wearing a Catwoman suit. “How 19 does she look like that? What is she doing?” “She’s got to be starv- 20 ing herself.” “Or she’s working out three hours a day.” I couldn’t 21 stop myself from turning around and assuring them, “No, she 22 doesn’t starve herself. She actually eats five meals and only works 23 out for twenty-five minutes a day.” Needless to say, they were in- 24 credulous.“Oh come on; where’d you hear that?” I admitted, “Be- 25 cause I train her.” 26 On the plane, I thought about the women’s reactions: they had 27 peppered me with questions, such as, “What kind of meals? Guess 28 it’s easy for her, with a high-priced chef following her around.” Af- 29 ter I’d protested that the meals she eats are very simple and easy to 30S prepare, I’d realized that I was talking to a rapt audience.
