Teemu Arina and Tateki "Tech" Matsuda discuss various exercises and daily habits to counteract the compound effects of a sedentary lifestyle, such as bad posture and lack of movement.
Tateki Matsuda, originally from Tokyo, Japan, transitioned from a baseball player to a martial artist after discovering kickboxing in his youth. Despite lacking formal training, his dedication led him to excel in full-contact karate tournaments in Japan. Moving to the U.S. for education, he earned degrees in Sports Movement Science while simultaneously forging a career in MMA, culminating in his UFC debut in 2014.
Tateki attributes his success to the support of his team, sponsors, and fans, emphasizing the importance of growth and teamwork in his journey. Multicultural experiences in Thailand and Brazil enriched his perspective, and he remains committed to continuous challenge and personal development, both in and out of the cage.
Tateki is also a valued member of the Biohacker Center team and manages the upcoming Biohacker Summit in Tokyo, Japan, which will take place in October 2024. He is a popular speaker and hosts engaging functional movement workshops at the Biohacker Summit and Retreat experiences.
This conversation was recorded in December 2023.
