Hey, never thought this brother was ever gonna' kick-it...
Never wanted to see him kick-it...
96 and kickin' much butt right till the end!!
Damn, that is how it's done.
This guy knew how to GET FIT DONE right from an early age and
just ripped it up probably till the last week or so of his passing.
He was famously quoted as saying "I can't afford to die...that will ruin my image."
And, "There are two things we need in life...God and fitness."
AMEN BROTHER...Amen.
He wasn't bogged down by any health related stuff
BECAUSE he just flat out had his fitness lifestyle DOWN!
He made it look easy...
And, for the most part he was right. Getting and staying in great health is not that tough, especially when you consider the alternative.
And, the alternative just flat out sucks.
Any way, I was looking for a killer tribute deserving of this one and only fitness icon but, to no real avail.
However, I did happen to find a video...probably 50+ years old
that hit the basic tenets of what we all in the fitness industry
are driven to share and teach to anyone who cares enough to listen long enough.
I believe Mr. LaLanne left his point spot on.
Enjoy this quick "tutorial" from THE MASTER...
THE GREAT GOD FATHER OF FITNESS...
THE 96 year young BEAST who is and was the quintessential fitness stud of ALL TIME...
MR. Jack LaLanne...
God Rest Your TIRED-LESS Soul , my brother .

Most people don't know that Jack was a CHIROPRACTOR! He actually never practiced, he was interested in learning all he could about health, and he got adjusted by a chiropractor weekly for his whole adult life!!!
