Exercise and Rock Like Richard Simmons

Fitness guru Richard Simmons, who turns 63 in July, does things his own way, from his sequined tank tops to his signature striped running shorts.

I met Simmons this weekend at World Fitness Day in Atlanta and he shared some of his favorite things, from his exercise playlist to his daily fitness favorites.
