Wall Street Journal :
Jack LaLanne has been called the Godfather of Fitness, but at 92 years old he's more like the great-grandfather.
He opened his first Jack LaLanne health club in 1936 in Oakland, California. His fame increased with "The Jack LaLanne Show," the first syndicated exercise program, which ran for more than 30 years. By the 1980s there were more than 200 gyms bearing his name.

Rock on, Jack LaLanne, here's hoping he makes it to 120!
I wish him well and admire his dedication to fitness. He's his best marketing tool. No wonder he looks great at 92
Great article from the Wall Street Journal! Mr. Lalane should be an example to us all.
