Martin explains that pain is a symptom of inflammation, which has five symptoms: redness, heat, swelling, pain, and loss of function. Inflammation can be acute, such as from an injury or overtraining, and can be managed with ice to reduce pain or heat to speed up healing. He highlights the importance of systemic enzymes, like serrapeptase and natokinase, which help repair muscle tissue faster by breaking down fibrin, a scar tissue component. This can allow athletes to recover more quickly from workouts. Martin also addresses chronic pain and inflammation, emphasizing the need for enzymes, magnesium, and collagen for overall health and quicker repair. Chronic inflammation, often stemming from issues like leaky gut, can lead to various diseases such as arthritis and diabetes. He advocates for a combination of nutritional supplements, including boron for connective tissue health and silica for flexibility. Martin shares anecdotal evidence of individuals who have significantly benefited from enzyme supplementation, noting that these supplements help maintain a youthful, pain-free state even in older age. He also discusses the role of calcium and magnesium in maintaining flexibility and the importance of preventing chronic inflammation for overall health. Towards the end of the interview, Brad and Martin discuss their coaching methods, highlighting the use of online platforms like Zoom for consultations and TrueCoach software for workout plans and form correction. Martin offers comprehensive health programs through his website, Life Enthusiast, which includes a team of coaches specializing in herbalism, nutrition, and physiotherapy to help clients achieve homeostasis and better health. The podcast concludes with Brad mentioning that Martin's contact information and website will be available in the show notes. 4o If you're interested in online personal training or being a guest on my podcast, "Over 40 Fitness Hacks," you can reach me at brad@over40fitnesshacks.com or visit my website at: www.Over40FitnessHacks.com Additionally, check out my Yelp reviews for my local business, Evolve Gym in Huntington Beach, at https://bit.ly/3GCKRzV
