I have a strange hobby. I tend to overanalyse the social media posts of famous buff actors such as Henry Cavill and Chris Hemsworth, and since the mega-successful re-launch of the Reacher series on Amazon Prime Video, I added Alan Ritchson to the ever-expanding list of fitness celebrities I keep a close eye on. It's probably for the best because otherwise, I might have missed this small detail on one oh his recent Instagram posts: a fitness tracker. But not the one you'd expect.

It's not like actors who are into fitness don't wear fitness watches – you'll often spot an Apple Watch on workout videos of stars while Henry Cavill prefers Polar watches to track his runs and workouts. In some cases, you might even see a Fitbit or a Garmin here and there.
