Clean Cult, the next-gen brand slashing 90% of single-use plastic from home cleaning rituals, is teaming up with Ted Lasso star Moe Jeudy-Lamour to launch the freshest fitness craze since shake weights: the Thenar Workout. Move over abs, thumbs are the new obsession. And the only “equipment” required? Clean Cult’s laundry detergent sheets in 100 percent plastic-free recyclable envelopes, with more than 50,000 free sample packs up for grabs at strongthumbs.com in its mission to kick bulky plastic laundry jugs to the curb.

Kicking off the social media campaign in Los Angeles, arguably the epicenter of fitness trends, Moe Jeudy-Lamour -- who starred as a goalkeeper in Ted Lasso -- is diving into youth soccer practices to inspire families to give plastic the red card. Expect a series of social media videos where Moe leads an energizing workout class with the final step inviting Thenar workout fanatics to toss Clean Cult’s laundry sheets into a washing machine as the final step of the routine. Along the way, Jeudy-Lamour will showcase the power of the pinch and answer burning questions, like how to pronounce Thenar, and what to do if you get thumb cramps.

In October 2024, I had the pleasure of speaking with Moe Jeudy-Lamour via Zoom, as embedded above and set to air via the Long Beach, New York-based Paltrocast With Darren Paltrowitz television series. Beyond Clean Cult, we talked about his work on Ted Lasso, future projects for the Montreal native, Jeudy-Lamour's Jewish roots, and the last concert he attended.
