Did you know that we have a podcast on Spotify? Fitness in Theory is recorded live on our YouTube channel every Tuesday night at 7 pm Mountain Time and then uploaded to Spotify on Wednesdays. Stop by and be a part of the show!
Fitness in Theory (FiT) is a podcast that we created to talk about losing weight, health, and fitness from the perspective of the average 40+ adult. We talk about everything from the difficulty of our personal eating disorders to what has worked the best for us over the years.
Yes, we often talk about our failures and successes. Not everyone has a positive experience with health and fitness.
Why Fitness in Theory?
The title of the podcast is actually a bit of a joke. Theoretically, we know what we need to do to lose weight and be fit. But in practice, we often struggle with a myriad of mental and physical issues.
The idea is to let others know that they are not alone when it comes to mental problems, a lack of motivation, and other hangups while trying to be “fit.”
The shows are recorded live from our YouTube channel at 7 pm MTN on Tuesdays. We often interact with viewers while answering questions and focusing on making each episode as fun as possible, regardless of the topic.
If you want to see the show live or want to chat with us while we record the episode, feel free to join us on YouTube.
Here are the most recent uploads of the show. Enjoy!

Fitness in Theory is about the real trials and tribulations of getting fit. Nothing is ever cut and dried when it comes to losing weight or building muscle mass. Everyone is unique in their needs, wants, and expectations. Join us as we delve into what drives us to live a healthier lifestyle and how we deal with the speedbumps along the way. If you’d like to join us, we record these live on YouTube every Tuesday night at 7 pm mountain time. So, feel free to stop by and be a part of the conversation and show.
May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month. In this episode, Sam and I talk a bit about skin cancer as well as providing statistics from credible sources as to why you want to keep yourself protected.
If you'd like to see the show live, you can visit us on Crossing Colorado's YouTube channel on Tuesday nights at 7 pm MTN (9 PM EST / 6 PM PST). Feel free to bring your questions along.

Keeping Ourselves Accountable
One of the ideas behind the FiT podcast was to find a way to hold ourselves accountable. By being more open and honest in a social environment, perhaps it can fuel motivation. After all, no one wants to look like a fool in public…right?
We also love to hear about the success of others and what works best for them. It’s the social engagement that drives us to continue.
In the end, accountability plays a major role in success. When it comes to health and fitness, you don’t have anyone cracking the whip for you to succeed. It really comes down to finding ways to motivate yourself. In this case, we use the podcast to drive some of that motivation.
Where Can You Listen to Fitness in Theory?
Currently, the podcast is only available on Anchor and Spotify. However, I am working to have it included on other platforms as well. If you have one, in particular, that you like most, feel free to join us during the live recording and let us know.
We love interacting with our audience.
