Thank you for watching me the
Bodies in motion with Gil Janklowitz.
Our special guest today is NFL great Joe Theismann, who led the Washington Redskins to victory
in Super Bowl XVII.
Joe, it seems like in your life today you're putting a lot of energy into inspiring people
into getting into shape.
You do it through your lectures, you do it all over the country.
Tell me a little bit about it and why did you get into it?
Well, Gil, first of all, I feel like everybody can use a little intervention in their life
as far as inspiration goes.
Sometimes we get stuck in ruts and you need to look at somebody else or talk to someone
else and find out that maybe they've gone through the same experience and all you have
to do is push them.
Just tell people, hey, look, if you set a goal, you can accomplish it.
If you have a positive attitude, you can get it done.
If you work with people, they're willing to help you.
If you work together, it's a lot easier than working alone and all of us find motivation.
I got to be honest with you, not because I'm here, but because I find it in your tapes.
I feel great after I work out with you in the morning, whether I'm in Washington and
you're in Hawaii.
It doesn't matter.
Well, it's better to have you here in Hawaii and have you work out with me in person and
we'll be right back after this break.
You had a pretty mighty toss with this ball at one point in your life.
Yeah, and I understand you can throw the javelin pretty well too.
So here.
I bet you I can throw further than you.
I'll tell you what, let's try.
Let's give it a try.
Ready?
One, two, three, go.
You did win.
Okay, big inhale up, exhale down.
One more time.
Big inhale up, exhale down, start reaching up.
With us today, let's go all the way to the back there from Oklahoma.
We have the husband and wife team, Chuck and Vicky right there.
Let's go.
And then we have Felicia, we have Mike and Trela, yours truly Gilad, and we have Mike.

We're going to tighten your buttocks and we're going to do a stretch, both arms up.

Drop the knee to the floor, foot flat on the ground, palm of the hands, come to the center
of your thighs, and you're going to lean your body forward.

and take it all the way back.

up, back to the center, and let's go.
