LOS ANGELES, CA - JUNE 16: Fitness expert Richard Simmons speaks to students about exercise and nutrition at the Third Annual Nutrition Advisory Council Symposium sponsored by LAUSD Nutrition Network at California State University on June 16, 2004 in Los Angeles, California.

Well, this is some interesting entertainment news.  Pauly Shore will be playing Richard Simmons in an upcoming biopic about the fitness guru’s life.  And, man, can I see it.  If you haven’t viewed Pauly Shore since his MTV days or Encino Man, here he is…

Sony Pictures' "The Machine" Los Angeles Premiere - Arrivals

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA – MAY 25: Pauly Shore attends the Los Angeles premiere of Sony Pictures’ “The Machine” at Regency Village Theatre on May 25, 2023 in Los Angeles, California.

 

And if you haven’t caught Richard in a while, here’s a reminder…

Do you see it?  I see it!  Now…not to get confusing…but Pauly will also star in a short film about Richard as well called The Court Jester.  This will not be related to the final, feature-length movie.  We have the trailer for that short film for you below.

Anyway, what do you think of the casting and idea?  Personally speaking, I always loved when Richard Simmons would pop up on The Late Show with David Letterman…he was always totally nuts and hysterical.  Sure, he was known for Sweatin’ To The Oldies and other exercise tapes…but his late-night appearances were always legendary.

When asked for comment about the movie, Simmons said that he has no connection to the film and that, these days, he just tries “to live a quiet life and be peaceful.”  Regardless, I think this thing could work.  I mean, biopics are the way to go for an Oscar nomination.  Think Jamie Foxx, Joaquin Phoenix, Rami Malek, Will Smith, and more…all of whom have been nominated or won Academy Awards for playing famous people.

So what I’m saying is…I’m interested!  I think I check this flick out when it hits theaters.  Anyway, check out the trailer for The Court Jester to see a sample of Pauly Shore as Richard Simmons.  Until then…I’ll see you at the movies!

How To Work Out While Working On Your Sore Spots

Working out is hard to do. Factor in being sore from previous workouts, and it makes skipping your routine too enticing. There are ways to push through that soreness through workouts that stretch those tight, sore muscles all while getting active. Below, we have suggestions that make it easier to overcome feeling sore.

  • Full Body Yoga Stretch

    My go-to stretch video for sore muscles and flexibility, Sarah Beth’s 20-minute-long video is perfectly calming and soothing as you smooth out those tight muscles from the inside.

  • Post-Workout Tips

    Slowly foam rolling post-workout and incorporating active recovery cooldowns post-workouts are just some of the suggestions proven to enhance muscle repair.

  • Active Recovery Workout - Intermediate Level

    During an intense workout, lactic acid is produced and builds up in your muscles, causing pain and soreness. The below video demonstrates how to effectively get a light workout in on your rest days while incorporating stretches.

  • Active Recovery Workout - Beginner/Intermediate Level

    This 20 minute full body active recovery workout is slow paced, with a preview of what to expect before the exercise begins. The man and woman show different modification on how to complete the workout and stretches to show the many ways to tailor it to you.

  • Active Recovery Workout - Beginner Level

    Fitness instructor Amy shows us gentle recovery movement, mobility and flexibility in an easy to follow, 22-minute workout. She’s great with encouraging you to only do what is comfortable and to not push yourself too much.

  • Cold and Heat Therapy

    This “5 Ways To Reduce Muscle Soreness (INSTANTLY)” goes more in depth about the benefits of using cold and heat therapy. Ice baths and cold showers can help reduce inflammation, while going to a sauna, steam room or jacuzzi session a day or two after your workout can help loosen up tight muscles.
