LaLanne had/has the strength of 100 men... 
Yep Say that a couple of times before you start to bash the guy. Not you I. The idiots who are busting his balls and will be lucky to see 51, nevermind 91 and healthy!
What is wrong with you ignorant dumb fvcks!?
Do you mean to try and tell me that Jack LaLanne in his prime with his SKINNY physique (under 200 lbs.) and puny 17-in. arms could begin to compare with our GIANT pro. BB mass-monsters of today weighing over 300 lbs., with 23-in.+ guns, who are ripped-to-shreds and lift gargantuan poundages in their workouts!???
Why, Jack LaLanne hasn’t done shiit for BB compared to our GOD JOE WEIDER!!! Just look at all “THE TRAINER OF CHAMPIONS” has done for bodybuilding…
(1) he took a bunch of old time-worn bodybuilding principles, re-named them with exciting new names like supersets, tri-sets, double sets, bomb-blitz, etc., and then claimed to have invented them. Excellent marketing strategy!
(2) he helped switch the emphasis in bodybuilding from outdated, ridiculous, “health and fitness” goals, like that old fool Jack LaLanne preached, to becoming a vascular, drug-fueled, mass monster; and that winning the Mr. Olympia title, at ALL costs, was/is the greatest achievement in life (as it well should be)!!
(3) he helped create an Amazon race of women by taking skinny, young, timid, girls and helped introduce them to bodybuilding and encouraged them to take BB drugs so that they could compete in his contests and win the coveted Ms. Olympia title. This was done through the introducion of contest judging criterion which pressured these female BB competitors to come in progessively bigger, and bigger, and BIGGER, and tighter every year. Why just think, the Ms. Olympias of today could probably have beaten Arnold in his prime! Oh yes, god Joe Weider helped create the marvelous hybrid sex "she-male/she-he". God bless you for this, Joe!
(4) he helped promote, through his wonderful BB mags., the idea of taking HIS food supplements to enhance BB progress so as to make millions off of the general public, while quietly, and covertly, encouraging competing BBers to take larger drug stacks to get progressively, bigger and more vascular. Of course, he needed this money to finance his wonderful dreams of bodybuilding's growth and glory!! In this way he helped pioneer the important BB mag. "big lie and drug cover-up principle" to help BB mags dupe the general public and fleece them...again, excellent marketing strategy and CERTAINLY no worse, from a moral and ethical standpoint, than what our own federal government does every single day!!
(5) he took the bodybuilding emphasis away from stupid-ass “athletic ability” (speed, strength, and stamina) like that idiot Jack LaLanne preached (along with that other idiot, Bob Hoffman) to where it REALLY should belong…i.e. just “looking good”…and fvck that athletic ability nonsense!!
In summary, it is mainly because of Joe Weider's efforts that bodybuilding is so highly respected in the eyes of the general public today!! Why, in essence, "god Joe" helped create a NEW SUPER RACE of bald-headed, eye-bulging, vein-popping, ripped-to-shreds, "juiced-to-the-gills" 300 lb.+, male BB mass monsters, along with their heavily-muscled, thick-skinned, gorgeous female BB competitor “she-he” counterparts with their deep husky, sexy, voices! How dare you SKINNY "health-nuts" try and compare such outstanding accomplishments with SKINNY Jack LaLanne’s continued misguided emphasis on utilizing bodybuilding for the purposes of enhancing one's health, longevity, and athletic ability…what NONSENSE...what a FOOL!!
