Dr. Aaron Mates, an orthopedic surgeon and sports medicine doctor working with the Denver Broncos and the Toronto Blue Jays, shares his expert perspective on why everyday people should stop embracing the 'no pain, no gain' mindset. According to Dr. Mates, workouts should leave you feeling good rather than in pain, and there is no shame in modifying exercises to protect your joints—something professional athletes do regularly. He highlights the vital importance of daily stretching, especially for hamstrings and calves, to combat the tight posterior chain caused by sitting. Furthermore, he advises returning to basics by eating whole, clean foods instead of relying on health supplements, and urges caution regarding longevity medicine and health-tracking wearables, which can often cause unnecessary anxiety.
