Pistol Squat - be very careful with this in the beginning as you can hurt your knee
- just squat to a chair or grab a post for support

Jack LaLanne workout exercise and diet routine is legendary. Living until the age of 96, LaLanne revolutionized the fitness industry with his incredible feats of strength and muscle along with his vast knowledge of health and fitness. On January 23, 2011, Jack LaLanne died of respiratory failure due to pneumonia. His death is sad and unexpected for a man known as one of the healthiest people in the world and someone who would often say, “I can’t die, it would ruin my image.”
