Kenneth H. Cooper (born March 4, 1931) is an American doctor of medicine and former Air Force lieutenant colonel from Oklahoma, who pioneered the benefits of doing aerobic exercise for maintaining and improving health. In 1966 he coined the term, and his book Aerobics was published in 1968, which emphasized a point system for improving the cardiovascular system. The popular mass market version was The New Aerobics (ISBN 0-553-26874-0), published ten years later.
A further book—with a more comprehensive approach including for example nutrition as well as exercise, The Aerobics Program For Total Well-Being (Bantam Books)—was published in 1982.
