Aaron Brooks Interview

[Le duke]

I hadn’t seen this channel on YouTube before. Good interviewer. Asked some good questions and got some good answers. And, only one mention of his faith in 20+ minutes, which can be a bit much at times for some.

It's a new podcast. Previously they did the Intermat podcast which was essentially the same as this one

I've bookmarked it for later.

Cliffnotes for now?  Does he say when (and at what weight) he will be competing again?

Going up to 97kg. Says he could make 92 but doesn't want to that. He doesn't want to cut a lot of weight any more. He'll be competing at the RAF event in late August.

Had surgery and then double (bilateral) pneumonia and has had to really dial it way down for a while.

This may be anecdotal and recency bias with Askren and now Brooks, but it really seems like pneumonia has been much more widespread and more severe this year across the age spectrum, at least in Illinois.

I had it in one lung last year  but it lasted 2 months.   I was so tired all the time.   It was pretty miserable.   Maybe I started it off.   It took 3 rounds of antibiotics, all different from each other.   The third round was the strongest and I felt better almost immediately.
