Fridays at 12pm – Starting January 2nd – The Fitness Show
Hosted by Colin Hoobler, The Fitness Show, is the first medically based fitness program to apply science to exercise. Hoobler hosts the program as part motivator and part science teacher. Sensors and 3-D image-capturing technology show viewers in real time what goes on underneath the skin during exercise. As a licensed physical therapist with two master's degrees, Hoobler's methods have been taught through the American Physical Therapy Association. Both medical doctors and physical therapists make guest appearances on The Fitness Show. Techniques demonstrated in episodes combine elements of anatomy, euroscience, physics and sports medicine. The educational content is intended to help viewers save time, avoid invasive medical treatments and reduce chronic pain.
