I wanna be like Jack

Last night we saw the Tivo recorded the Jack Lalane show. We were curious about it so we checked it out. Om my God it’s great. These are the original shows from the 60’s, they play on ESPN Classic everyday at 5:30 am. Ali and I got up and did the program with Jack. His energy level is incredible. Many of the exercises were unconventional by today’s standards but effective none the less. I can’t remember laughing so hard at a tv show in a long time. There is a live one man band that does sound effects in timing with the exercises which is just hilarious. Jacks little looks, quips and mannerisms are so funny. Then when we got to the point where we did our neck and face exercises I just lost it. You have to see it to understand how crazy it is. After the face exercises were done he had us bend over at the waist and slap ourselves all over the face to promote blood flow. 🙂 He sings a song at the end. Of course he had on his signature jumpsuit. If you are up at that hour just watch it, once. If you are in the DVR family, record it. Trust me you won’t be disappointed. The guy is 90 now and still could run circles around some people half his age. I can only hope I keep my desire for fitness untill I drop as he has.
