Jack Lalanne – R.I.P.
I am sorry to hear that Jack Lalanne has died. For those of you that don’t know Jack, he was a legend in the 1950s and 1960s, producing a series of TV slots that still resonate today.
Here is an example of Jack talking about unhappy people. Please spare 3 minutes of your time to see what he has to offer.
I had the pleasure of interviewing Jack on his 93rd birthday. He was generous with his time and advice, and had just finished his 2 hour training session.
He most recently gave a quote for last year’s blog festival. and has been featured regularly on this blog.
In the day and age of quick fixes and gimmicks, and where young athletes want rewards for simply turning up and doing 10 press ups, Jack was a welcome link to simple, honest advice and some impressive feats of strength.
1000 press ups and 1000 pull ups in an hour and 20 minutes is good going.
Our thoughts go to his family.

I first met James at a South West Gymnastic conference and thought he was superb then, and still do! James' ability to adapt to different sports and levels is excellent, and he is superb at getting his message across to different ages of gymnasts. He did a workshop at our club for our competitive gymnasts and it was superb, His work was of great value to a wide range of ages and levels, with a tremendous emphasis on posture and injury prevention. We have been able to put his training methods into practice and are seeing an improvement in the all round strength and fitness of our gymnasts.
