Jack LaLanne

The Godfather of Fitness

Jack LaLanne is famous for a number of firsts including opening the first modern health club in 1936; swimming from Alcatraz, hands and feet shackled. But his most famous first was to increase public awareness for the need of systematic physical conditioning through his daily exercise TV show, which spanned 34 years.

He is labeled the father of the modern fitness movement in America today and is called “The Godfather of Fitness.” Over 90 years old, LaLanne still works out twice a day and is in demand as a motivational speaker. His famous juice machines, which literally have sold millions, are staples in kitchens across America and the world. Generations young and old recognize him and practice his tenets. LaLanne resides in Morro Bay, California, with Elaine, his wife of 53 years.
