ABSolutely Love this Guy! Jack LaLanne on LifeQuest. RIP Sir!
Television personality, fitness pioneer, inventor. Born on September 26, 1914, in San Francisco, California. Still going strong in his nineties, Jack LaLanne is often referred to as the "godfather of fitness." He was the first to open a health club in the United States and to have an exercise show on television. As a child, he ate a lot of sugary foods and got into trouble at school. "I was a sugarholic and a junk food junkie! It made me weak and it made me mean," LaLanne later said. But he completely changed his life around after attending a lecture by a nutritionist as a teenager. LaLanne cut out sugar and other unhealthy foods from his diet and began exercising. The one-time problem child transformed into a top high school athlete, playing on his school's football and wrestling teams.
Jack! RIP!
