nDecades before celebrities and athletes promoted health and fitness, Jack LaLanne, The Godfather of Fitness, was already recognized for publicly preaching the health benefits of regular exercise, proper nutrition and a positive attitude. Pride & Discipline: The Legacy of Jack LaLanne reintroduces Jacks message to a new generation. nThis book is written in Jacks own words, along with the words of those he inspired. It is co-authored by Elaine (Lala) LaLanne, The First Lady of Physical Fitness and Greg Justice, National Fitness Hall of Fame inductee (2017). n nElaine saved Jacks writings, some he had scribbled down in the middle of the night and others were interviews and magazine articles; would you believe, dating back to 1934. n nPride & Discipline: The Legacy of Jack LaLanne is packed with his beliefs in mind power, overcoming obstacles, visualization, motivation, humor, and of course, exercise and nutrition. n nJack often said, I cant die because it would be bad for my image. But, as Lou Ferrigno says in the books foreword, The truth is, his legacy will live on forever because of his vitality, positive attitude and wonderful sense of humor. n nJack opened the first modern health club in 1936. He was the first to have a nationally syndicated television show on exercise and nutrition. He invented the Leg Extension Machine, Weight Selector Machine, Cable/pully Machines, and more. He was the first to train athletes, women and the elderly with weights. He was also the first to encourage the physically challenged to exercise and work around their disabilities. n nJack LaLanne summed up his philosophy about good nutrition and exercise by saying: nDying is easy. Living is a pain in the butt. Its like an athletic event. Youve got to train for it. Youve got to eat right. Youve got to exercise. Your health account, your bank account, theyre the same thing. The more you put in, the more you can take out. n nIn addition theres a family scrapbook, along with stories from people in the fitness industry, as well as folks from all walks of life who either knew him, or were inspired by him.n
