My Hero

When I was 7 years old, I used to watch The Jack LaLanne Show faithfully every day during the summer. I think it brainwashed me at an early age to think about health and wellness. Jack was way ahead of his time! He opened the very first fitness center in the U.S. , and is still going strong at 94 years old. If you have any doubts about his impact on the modern fitness industry, just check out his bio page at http://www.jacklalanne.com/bio.htm. Most of what he has been preaching all these years has now been scientifically proven, though he was always going against the grain.

Here are just some of the many classic quotes from Jack:

Exercise is King, nutrition is Queen, put them together and you've got a kingdom.
Don't exceed the feed limit.
The food you eat today is walking and talking tomorrow.
Better to wear out than rust out.
People don't die of old age, they die of inactivity.
I can't die, it would ruin my image.
If man makes it, don't eat it.
Eat right and you can't go wrong.

Be inspired!
