My Workout with Fitness Guru Richard Simmons - from Robin Palmer - inventor of My Workout Wake UP Call - Motivational Alarm Clock Messages - @www.MyWorkoutWakeUpCall.com and @www.MyWakeUPCalls.com

Working out with Richard Simmons is SO MUCH FUN! If you are in the LA area, you have to check out his classes at his studio in Beverly Hills - definitely the most fun I have ever had in an exercise class! - Picture the exact opposite experience of a tranquil yoga workout.  I laughed so hard at Richard's antics during class that I could feel my abs working overtime.  I get to skip crunches tomorrow.

Underneath his campy exterior, Richard Simmons has a heart of gold. He actually asked for silence, then turned to me and asked, "Who are you? You have such a gentle spirit."  I replied with my name.  Richard asked if I do voice-over work and I told him that I had starred in Broadway musicals for 15 years. So, when he asked which shows I had done, I responded that I had played Linda Ronstadt's sister in The Pirates of Penzance with Kevin Kline, had co-starred with David Cassidy in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, and had sung Memory in CATS.  And then, standing in the middle of about 200 sweaty exercise enthusiasts, Richard asked me to sing Memory. So I belted out a few bars, at which Richard and the class applauded enthusiastically. 

He asked what I do now and I told him and my fellow "sweaters" that I had invented My Workout Wake UP Call - Motivational Alarm Clock Messages -- patented, daily 5-minute messages that motivate listeners to wake up and workout, for which I received another round of heartwarming praise. Then, as instructed, we picked up our weights and carried on with the class.

I wasn't the only one who was touched by Richard's openhearted kindness. At the end of class, he called up two women to the front of the studio who were celebrating their birthdays today and gave both of them birthday gifts.

And then Richard gave all of us a gift straight from his heart. He said he was aware that some people in the class had been hurt by people who had never apologized for doing them wrong, and that they were still hanging on to the hope they would someday receive an apology.

Richard said, "Often those people who haven't asked for our forgiveness still haven't forgiven themselves for hurting us. So how could we expect an apology, when they haven't even forgiven themselves?"
So, simply and powerfully, Richard told them that he was so sorry they had been hurt, and asked his students to forgive and let go of holding on to the hurt. I glanced around the room and noticed that many of my classmates had tears in their eyes.

Richard Simmons "Sweat" class was my fantasy exercise class -- a real full body workout, inside and out. If my abdominal muscles were not sore from laughing so much, I'd think I had been dreaming!

Behind the Scenes Video @YouTube – Recording My Workout Wake UP Call - Motivational Alarm Clock Messages with Inventor Robin Palmer

  • Do you start your day feeling overwhelmed by the mounting list of items competing for your attention?
  • Do you end up putting your self-care and fitness at the end of your list, and tell yourself you will try to fit in a workout later?
  • Have you ever set your alarm the night before to wake you up early, so you could work out before the day’s schedule kicked in? But, in the morning, you didn’t feel up to it, and worked out the snooze button a few times instead?

I used to answer YES to every one of those questions!  


I had performed leading roles in Broadway Musicals in for 15 years, and then became a personal trainer. A few years ago, I moved across the country to CA, got married and took a desk job. I kept wishing for an affordable personal trainer to motivate me to wake up and work out every morning. He had to say something different every day, he had to be really motivating, and he had to be someone whom my husband wouldn’t mind being in our bedroom with us in the morning when we woke up. Necessity is the mother of invention!

My Workout WakeUp Call® Motivational Alarm Clock Messages are patented, daily 5- minute motivating messages from a personal trainer, who helps you to wake up and work out, first thing in the morning, when it matters the most. Wake up your body each morning with gentle guided stretches in bed, exercise tips of the day, music to get dressed by and a standing ovation!

Studies show that you have a much better chance of actually working out if you exercise first thing in the morning, before your schedule starts. You will also maximize your results, because you will speed up your metabolism for the day. 

My Workout Wake UP Call messages have not just changed my life. Our customers tell us they have changed their lives, too! Cary M. wrote, “Thank you for motivating me to workout when I wake up in the morning, or when I get home from work. My Workout Wake UP Call messages silence the debate club in my head, and get me ready and willing to work out - right from my phone! I feel better and I can fit into my skinny jeans!”


Enjoy waking UP and working out!
