I have many fond memories of watching those TV programs. Jack's is another classic physique that we could and should add to the pantheon. He was the first to get me thinking about exercise. I will miss him.

Thank you for the clips, Tony.

I remember watching him on TV as a kid in his early 70's (or something like that) pulling a boat across a river while swimming...

I remember watching him in his 80's knocking out the push ups. He made getting in shape cool.

Never understood why guys like LaLanne or Gironda weren't in charge of the FDA. Not only would they have stopped big business from poisoning Americas understanding of nutrition, they would have also physically whipped us into shape. True role models.

Default In Honor Of Jack Lalanne
A friend suggested in honor of Jack Lalanne everyone do 1000 push ups in his honor. After my powerlifting meet this saturday, instead of resting and being a slave to my body the following week, I am going to go do 1000 push ups.

In Honor Of Jack Lalanne I think everyone should also work up to a 1000 push ups no matter how long it takes to get there.

I will start a challenge thread. We don't have to put a date on it, but rather just do it whenever.
