**Jonny** (2:20)
Between us we have used a lot of protein shakers.

**Chris Williamson** (2:24)
You only need one protein shaker.

**Yusef** (2:26)
It's beautiful. Nothing worse when you leave a plastic protein shaker behind a car seat overnight.

**Jonny** (2:32)
In your gym bag.

**Chris Williamson** (2:33)
It doesn't fix. The metal protein shaker doesn't fix that problem. It's easier to wash it 100% and it catches a little bit of condensation on the outside of it when it's cool.

**Jonny** (2:45)
That's what I like most about it. You pick it up and it just feels cold. It's like mid-training session or after training session.
You don't want lukewarm plastic. You want cold metal.

**Yusef** (2:55)
Plastic warms it up, doesn't it? It tastes of plastic too.

**Jonny** (2:58)
It's also just something you feel like a kid at nursery drinking out of plastic. There's little red cups with your squash in.

**Yusef** (3:04)
You got the little bottles of milk. It was milk. You had the milk monitor and it would come around.

**Chris Williamson** (3:09)
Anyway, if you want to win one, just share the episode, tag me in the share, at chriswillx on all social media. So, yeah, on to life hacks. We've prepped quite hard for this episode. So we have got some motherfuckers. I am telling you, man, this episode is going to be sick here.

**Jonny** (3:30)
I don't think mine are better.

**Chris Williamson** (3:32)
Mine are more organized. Mine are fucking mint.

**Yusef** (3:35)
Mine are new.

**Chris Williamson** (3:37)
Yours aren't the same. Okay, so I'm going to go first. We think they're new.

**Yusef** (3:40)
Yeah.

**Chris Williamson** (3:41)
I am going to go first. And first one is when you take a screenshot on iPhone, the corners of the screen, when the screenshot pops up, you can just press on the screenshot, open it out, and you'll see on the outside, you have the frame where you can pull the crop in. So you can crop naturally from there. So I didn't know that you couldn't just, you didn't just have to go back into photo editor afterwards. Take a screenshot. So do it now. Take a screenshot on your phone. And then if you press on the picture, and then the corners of the image, you can pull down and crop from there. So you can zoom in, you can zoom it as a square, you can just take particular areas out of it. So you don't actually need to, there you go.
