Spotlight On: The Godfather of Fitness

"Remember this: your body is your slave; it works for you" -Jack LaLanne

Jack LaLanne is the ultimate example of a Self Master and a Physical Fitness Genius, often called the Godfather of Fitness. He is currently ninety six years old and still bursting with vitality and health from his strict fitness regimen and healthy diet which includes no sugar, and hasn't for 80 years. He was literally decades ahead of his time. Almost every health principle he preached back in the 50's and 60's has been proven by science in recent years. Furthermore, almost every important weight machine in modern gyms, and actually used by bodybuilders, was his invention decades ago (including pulley, Smith and leg extension machines to name a few). And it is important to note that he had an incredible physique decades before steroids.

Spotlight On: 75 Yr Old Raw Marathonian



In 1982, at the age of 47, Ruth Heidrich got the shock of her life. She was diagnosed with breast cancer.

At the time, she considered herself healthy and fit. After all, she ran marathons and ate what was considered a healthy diet. After a modified radical mastectomy to remove the tumor, she was told by not 1 but 5 different doctors that her tumor was life threatening and there was nothing they knew to do to strengthen her immune system. As she would later discover, the cancer had spread to her bones and one lung.

Fortunately for Heidrich, she was an avid reader and researcher, and found that Dr. John McDougall was doing a study on the effects of diet on breast cancer. She paid him a visit, and was told “If you want to save your life, change your diet.” On the spot, she decided she’d rather change her diet than undergo chemotherapy and radiation, joined Dr. McDougall’s study and adopted a vegan, low-fat diet.

She states “In two hours I went directly from the Standard American Diet (SAD) to a low-fat, whole food vegan diet.”
