The creatives behind the pic note that there are currently over 200,000 health clubs in the world — and that 64 million Americans hold gym memberships, adding up to a whopping $87B industry globally. How did we get here? The answer is simple: “My first job was at a Jack LaLanne club, I have great memories from it. The members were into it, they were energized, they knew they were doing great things for their mind and body,” Saltzman told Deadline. “Jack started it all. His reach was way beyond the clubs. He is a fitness and nutrition Guru. His story is incredibly compelling, inspiring and motivational, he is an icon.”
Continues the EP, “I have a weight belt that Jack signed for me that hangs above the office door in my gym. People ask why that piece of memorabilia gets such a coveted spot and I say that because without Jack, I wouldn’t be here, and this gym definitely wouldn’t be here.”
