Welcome to the Mind Muscle Podcast where there is nothing new, except all that has been forgotten. 

This week join Simon as he dives into the ORIGINAL fitness bro Ben Franklin. Yes, that Ben Franklin.

Simon will take us through a few of the facts and myths around Ben, and more importantly how some of these facts can help us become healthier in our everyday life.
