Episode 140: Psychoanalyzing Jack Lalanne
from Psychology in Everyday Life: The Psych Files · host Michael Britt
In this episode I put Jack Lalanne "on the couch". I take selections from several of his vidoes and see what they reveal about his personality. He was clearly passionate about exercise, but what drove this passion? What was his underlying motivation? I suggest that his relationship with his father was crucial to his passion for exercise and fitness. Join me as I do a little armchair psychoanalysis of Jack Lalanne.Jack Lalanne The Ripped and the Righteous
