Get inspired: See 'Stick It!'

I'm a sucker for films with a "Rocky" kind of theme. Underdog treated unfairly, given second chance, trains like crazy, changes his/her life, becomes a champion ... even better when the action is realistic.

If you're with me on this, you'll want to see "Stick It!" No, not the kind of movie you would normally want to be seen walking out of the video store with ... I mean, it's about women's gymastics of all things. But wait ... this is the real deal ... it's not about 12-year-old freaks ponsing around in spandex, but proper athletes -- the cast includes a world champion or two and several Olympians -- in hard training and competition.

You will not spot where the body doubles take over. You will get a boost to your training. It's the kind of movie that makes you feel dedicated all over.

"Stick It!" stars the gorgeous Missy Peregrym, and Jeff Bridges as the coach.
