You Don't Know Jack
by Dr. Donald Schnell
I found it hard to believe.
The man performed 1,000 full body chin-ups non-stop.
Most men have trouble completing even one.
I found it hard to believe. The same man did these
chin-ups in under 30 minutes.
I found it hard to believe. This man was in his 30's,
not a young twenty something.
I found it hard to believe. This man completed the
chin-ups and then jumped to the ground and did
1,000 pushups!
I found it hard to believe. This man completed the
pushups in twenty minutes.
His name?
Jack LaLanne. The famous sixties TV exercise icon.
Biography
Exercise benefits you in many ways. It is great form
of stress relief and physical conditioning.
But I learned much more from Jack LaLanne then
merely exercising my body. I learned to exercise my
mind. How? Jack taught me that exercise creates
discipline and persistence, and that the more I
strengthened by body, the more my mind was
exercised.
What was it like to workout with Jack La Lanne?
If he were here with you today, he'd probably say.
"Hey? Why are you sitting down? If you've been
sitting for more than 30 minutes, you've got to stand
up!"
"Reach up. Reach for the ceiling. Stand tall. Repeat
this three more times. Try to reach a little higher with
each attempt."
"What else can I do?"
"Start with one minute of exercise."
"Just one minute?"
"Yes! The important thing, more than the minutes
is to create the habit of exercise. It is better to start
the habit and stay with it every day then to start and
quit."
We used to tell Jack all of our excuses as to why we
would miss a day. He was a professional excuse killer.
"Jack, I wanted to exercise today, but I didn't have
time."
"You don't have one minute?" he would say.
Stand up. Stand behind your chair. Hold onto it with
your hands. Now rise up and down on your toes for
the next 60 seconds. Slow down the repetitions if you
need to.
Every day add another minute of exercise. Walk in
place. Try pushups.
Let me review. Every 30 minutes stand up for a
minute. Reach for the ceiling.
Rise up and down on your toes. Add a minute of
exercise to your life everyday until you are performing
30 minutes.
In one week you will be doing 7 minutes of exercise.
You will surprise yourself at how much exercise this is.
More importantly, you will be creating the exercise
habit in your life.
No more excuses. Now is the time to exercise your
mind and body and to keep youthful.
