Fitness Guru Jack LaLanne Dies At 96
Posted By thestatedtruth.com on January 23, 2011
We probably all grew up watching Jack LaLanne on TV…..
Jack LaLanne, who died Sunday at age 96 at his home in Morro Bay, Calif., opened a string of gyms in the 1930s and went on to host “The Jack LaLanne Show,” syndicated nationwide.
Cheerful and distinctively dressed in a jumpsuit and ballet slippers, Mr. LaLanne was fond of slogans like, “First we inspire them, then we perspire them.” But behind the glib exterior was a philosophy of exercise and whole foods that was decades ahead of its time.
