Richard Simmons – 73

Besides going to school, Richard Simmons spent a portion of his childhood selling sweets for a candy shop. Along the way, he also landed a spot in movies like The Clowns and Satyricon due to his physique. Despite all those stints, however, Simmons ultimately shifted his sights to a career in fitness. After noticing the effects a healthy lifestyle gave him, he then spent a significant portion of his investment money creating exercise studios.

First named The Anatomy Asylum, these facilities have since become most known under the title “Slimmons.” After a while, Simmons garnered plenty of praise and recognition for his work in promoting a healthy way of living. In fact, this even gave him a chance to guest star in shows such as Super Password, Battlestars, The Price Is Right, and a recurring role in General Hospital. Since 2014, though, Simmons has opted for a more private lifestyle, though he recently uploaded a couple of archived footages to his YouTube channel.
