Weekend Explorer- Jack LaLanne- Muscle Beach Workout, Santa Monica

Icon, mentor, and friend Jack LaLanne died today at the age of 96. He was the father of the modern fitness culture opening his first gym in 1936. His athletic feats were many. At 43, he did 1,000 push-ups in 23-minutes on the show "You Asked for It". If he wasn't telling a joke, he only spoke words of encouragement to acquaintances and strangers alike. I have a signed picture from this interview that has hung in my room since 2002. Jack says in part, "Anything in life is possible, make it happen". Words to live by! God bless you Jack!!
