"Exercise is the King, Nutrition is the Queen, Put Them Together and you got a Kingdom." Jack LaLanne But what did he mean, exercise is the king, well let’s look at the benefits of exercise. When you exercise, you build strength, and strong bones, you boost your energy levels, and exercise helps towards weight loss, better sleep and increases blood flow; therefore exercise is the king, but does exercise alone enable you to lose weight, flatten your stomach, reduce chronic disease, the answer to those questions is a resounding No, that is where nutrition comes in. You see, you can’t outrun your folk, no amount of exercise is going to save you from a poor diet. In order to be truly healthy, lose weight and flatten your stomach, you must combine exercise and nutrition together. Jack LaLanne, who passed away at 96, was right!
