Career
Simmons began working at Derek's, a Beverly Hills restaurant, in Los Angeles, in the 1970s. 157 He took an interest in fitness. The day's exercise studios favored the physically fit client, so there was no way to assist those who needed to get some exercise from an otherwise unhealthy location. He founded gyms, and his obsession with fitness helped him lose 123 lb (56 kg).
He later opened "The Anatomy Asylum," where emphasis was placed on healthy eating in healthy portions and enjoyable exercise in a friendly environment. Ruffage, a pun on the word roughage (dietary fiber), was originally served in the restaurant, but it was eventually deleted as the Asylum's primary focus was solely to exercise. The business, which later renamed "Slimmons," continued operations in Beverly Hills, and Simmons taught motivational classes and aerobics throughout the week. Slimmons closed in November 2016.
Simmons claimed he had been off his own 100+ pound (45 kg) weight loss for 42 years, had been helping others lose weight for 35 years, and that he had helped humanity shed nearly 12 million pounds (5.5 million kg). Simmons launched his own membership-based website on the Internet, as well as other social media pages on various social media platforms, such as Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, and YouTube.
Simmons began attracting media notice after his health club, which began with him on Real People, where he was seen at work. He told customers that he had helped them lose weight. He appeared on Battlestars, Body Language, Super Password, Win, Lose, Draw, Match Game, and Nickelodeon's Figure It Out.
Simmons was landed in a recurring role in GM over a four-year period thanks to positive audience reactions. This, as well as being in shopping malls, where he taught exercise classes, drew even more media notice. Simmons hosted two shows in the early 1980s, Slim Cookin and the Emmy Award-winning talk show The Richard Simmons Show, in which he concentrated on personal health, fitness, exercise, and healthy cooking. Thousands of exercise enthusiasts attended the Richard Simmons exhibition, including SAG/AFTRA actress Lucrecia Russo, who allegedly carried a whole bus filled with women from Pam's Figure Tique for a vivacious workout on the show.
In Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer: The Movie, Simmons performed Boone.
He appeared on numerous television shows, including "Whose Line Is It Anyway," CHiPs, Saturday Night Live, The Larry Sanders Show, and in the Arrested Development episode "Bringing Up Buster." He hosted the short-lived television show DreamMaker in 1999. He appeared on PBS' special Love Yourself and Win in 2007.
He has appeared in television commercials for Sprint, Yoplait, and Herbal Essence Shampoos. He appeared on ESPN in late 2007 as the show's "conditioning coach." Simmons mattresses appeared in a commercial in Canada. The mattress corporation recruited the actor due to the similarity in name and for his appeal to the company's intended audience of women over the age of 35. There is no further commercial relationship between the two companies beyond this.
Simmons portrayed an exercise trainer voicing his animated likeness in the Rocko's Modern Life episode "No Pain, No Gain," teaching a class packed with large anthropomorphic animals.
He appeared on Sirius Satellite Radio channel 102 from 2006 to 2008, titled Lighten Up with Richard Simmons.
