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.
Client Testimonials
Working with James has been a pleasure and education for all of the fencers and coaches, from beginner fencers and trainee fencers, up to international fencers and coaches with decades of experience. We really appreciate James' desire to challenge assumptions but simultaneously his ability to listen to both fencers and coaches on technical and tactical points. He manages to keep his sessions fresh and innovative without losing sight of our central goals. His sessions are challenging and fun and his attention detail is a tribute to his professionalism. Thank you.
