Michael Brooks Podcast

It was a pretty busy bank holiday weekend. We visited our family members, and I finished a CrossFit workout called "Murph".

Today, we're heading to Somerset and spending some quality time with more family members. Also, Sunburn is a pain, and I wish either the MS band 2 still existed, or another device had UV sensors and notifications.

Today I visited Paignton zoo with my wife, brother, his partner and my nephews. There was fun to be had, and it was lovely. Have a great Sunday.

I also want to apologise for the quality of this episode. It was recorded on my iPhone and sounded like it was recorded with a potato. I won't be doing another recording like this again.

It wasn't as painful as I thought it would be, considering everyone says it's the most painful place to get one. My wife would say, "no sense, no feeling" which is probably very true.

Before COVID, I had a ring that was bigger in size. When lockdown happened, my finger shrunk in size because I was no longer working out at all, and before I noticed how much it shrunk, I lost my ring.

I didn't notice it was gone until I got home, and it was a good amount of miles away from the original place I lost it, so I didn't go back to look. Instead, I ordered another ring that was smaller to fit the current size of my finger. After going back to Crossfit, my finger grew in size once again, and now I struggle to get my ring on and off. It's to a point where I have to use washing up liquid to get it off.

Today, I will be going into a tattoo parlour and have a "T" tattooed on my wedding ring finger to symbolise the fact I'm married. This way, I don't have to worry about different sizes, getting my ring resized or taking a ring off and on again when I'm working out.

After taking a massive break, I have decided to restart my podcast. It will no longer be focusing on just fitness and mental health. It will be covering a whole range of general topics.

I've always been interested in finding the ultimate tracking device and have used a few in the past, which I thought were excellent. However, I believe our search for the ultimate device may have come to an end.

Sometimes it can be tough to get back into a routine after a lovely holiday. I recommend if you workout to go back at the soonest possible date after returning home from a holiday, your body and soul will not regret it, even if it feels like the hardest workout you've done in a while.
