MORRO BAY, Calif. -- Fitness guru Jack LaLanne, who inspired television viewers to trim down and pump iron decades before exercise became a national obsession, has died at age 96.

His agent Rick Hersh says LaLanne died of respiratory failure due to pneumonia Sunday afternoon at his home in Morro Bay on California's central coast.

Hersh says Lalanne ate healthy and exercised every day of his life up until the end.

LaLanne credited fitness with transforming his life as a teen, and he worked over the next eight decades to transform others' lives, too.

He said, "The only way you can hurt the body is not use it." LaLanne's workout show was a television staple from the 1950s to '70s. He maintained a youthful physique into his 80s.

I think it is time for us all to go freshly squeeze about 40 oz of orange juice, take it outside, and spill a little on the ground.

He could probably lift more at 96 than i can right now. LOL

You're such a snot nosed little , tbh.

People like you should get spit on by passers by, just for being the type of little -head you so clearly are.

Seriously, I wouldn't hypothetically kick your ass because you're simply a loser child, whose parents owe us all an apology, but I'd love to hock a loogie into your eyeball.

Something tells me you do that every night regardless how many fitness gurus die that day. but then again that is the vibration I get from your post.
I could be wrong.
