Jack LaLanne can do Anything and so can You By Jim Bushee Jack LaLanne is the most inspirational person I have ever seen. If you look at his life and accomplishments it is pretty difficult to believe. Jack tells everyone he was a weak and sick child addicted to sugar. But, after he met Paul Bragg he changed his eating habits and began exercising every day. Today Jack is 95 and still exercises two hours a day every morning. He is in better shape than most people a quarter of his age. Jack had so many major accomplishments. He created the first health clubs. He opened them all over the country and had over 200 before selling them to Bally. he even invented the first pulley exercise machines and Smith Machine. He made the first exercise show which ran for 34 years. Everyday he inspired millions to get off the couch and exercise. He created one of the first easy to use juicers called the Juice Tiger. Before that they we huge and difficult machines to operate with little juice in return. Jack's physical accomplishment were incredible. Jack would set records by doing over 1,000 push ups in about 20 minutes. He could swim miles and miles in freezing water. For many of his stunts he would swim towing boats while handcuffed and shackled. Most other people would consider that impossible. But not Jack, his physical fitness and determination allowed him to do more than most people ever dream of. his life truly shows that a person can do anything if they believe in themself.
