Welcome to Episode 21 of The Outlifting Lounge, the weekly show serving queer conversation, news, and no-nonsense fitness for gay, bi, and trans guys.

In this episode of, we’re back and refreshed after a wee break and we’re diving into why “tiny” fitness wins, like your first full push-up or walking up stairs without gasping, are the real keys to consistency.

We also discuss using comedy as escapism from global stress, our latest TV obsessions like The Comeback and Last One Laughing, and how we’re moving the Lounge to a new home in Gran Canaria.

We’re doubling down on what matters most: giving our community the best fitness and mindset advice.

In order to do that, we’re moving to an audio-only format to bring you better sound quality and a weekly schedule you can actually count on.

If you only catch the show on an audio platform like Apple Podcasts, then the great news is that the quality of the show is improving for you.

The show will still live on YouTube as an audio stream, but the real magic is happening in your headphones while you’re at the gym or on your commute.
