“My first job was at a Jack LaLanne club, I have great memories from it. The members were into it — they were energized, they knew they were doing great things for their mind and body. Jack started it all. His reach was way beyond the clubs. He is a fitness and nutrition guru. His story is incredibly compelling, inspiring and motivational. He is an icon.”
