Hey you! Do you wanna get in shape and don't know where to start? Wanna live a long, healthy, and fruitful life like ABC's hottest TV talent and a true talk show and game show great? Well, your prayers have been answered! Final answered, that is, with this:
Regis: My Personal Workout
Featuring everyone's favorite talk show/Millionaire host, Live! executive producer Michael Gelman, Live! cohost (at the time) Kathie Lee Gifford, and Joy (Regis's wife)
By the way, I've never realized, until he got into that blue tank top and demonstrated the exercises to us, how good of a shape he was in. Then I remembered that by the time the original Millionaire was cancelled in 2002, Reege was 70 and a half. He was about 62 or so here (the video's from 1993), a couple days shy of 68 when Millionaire first premiered and a couple months over 70 when it was cancelled. Good Lord, I hope I'm in as good of a shape as he was then.

When I came across this I genuinely suspected it was some kind of joke. But it never occurred to me just how in shape Regis was until a few nights ago when I was watching back the 10th anniversary and thought "Wait - Regis isn't 76 there!"
Blimmin' heck. My new fitness coach - Mr. Regis Philbin.

My new fitness coach - Mr. Regis Philbin. Those were my exact first thoughts. I was on YouTube a couple of days following his passing looking for things with him in it that wasn't Millionaire (I'm a huge game show nut and really enjoy learning more about the hosts and seeing them do things that aren't necessarily game shows). I typed in 'Regis Philbin' in the search bar and the third result 'Regis Philbin workout video'. I thought, "Surely, that has to be some parody or joke." I clicked on the result and here we are with that video. I was as surprised as you are to see it was real.

Indeed, I discovered this a few years back, and sure enough, it was an actual thing. I can confirm I was equally surprised, and equally impressed. Regis kept himself remarkably fit.

panampat I was looking through Regis' Twitter the other day and actually found this tweet from 2014 with a photo of him working out in 1984; 9 years before that "My Personal Workout" video. He was as fit as a fiddle.
