I’m thrilled to chat with Larry Arnold, a 2-time national champion with the Nebraska football team and a dedicated health and wellness coach. Larry is not only a biohacker and a red light therapist but also the brain behind the Larry Arnold Approach, aiming to balance understanding, ability, and outcome in health.

I met Larry in 2016, and he quickly became my go-to person for all things wellness. From refining my running technique to offering advice on preventing injuries, Larry has been an indispensable guide in my fitness journey.

In our discussion today, we will be zeroing in on the essential topic of active recovery, touching upon biohacking strategies, NAD and ozone therapies, red light therapy, and power plates. Plus, we will share some tips on efficient ways to lose fat and stay fit without spending long hours in the gym daily.

  • [30:06] We break down the cells and mitochondria which is the activity center of the cell.
  • [32:55] More power and health in a healthy body is a good thing.
  • [35:50] NAD+ is for everyone. It helps grow back receptors. It’s the number one anti-aging tool on the planet. Larry breaks down all of the many advantages of increased NAD.
  • [40:17] We talk about how ozone helps get rid of inflammation.
  • [43:49] Ozone is super powerful.

  • [48:10] Recovery is really the other side of fitness. Gyms are incorporating them.
  • [51:16] Power plate is a vibrating platform. It was usually used by astronauts. It excites and activates the cells. It helps oxygenate the blood.

  • [54:54] Recovery is important at some point in the learning when there are mishaps.
  • [55:32] People who need help with their fitness are many of the people who aren’t naturally fit and need to do the learning first.
