Syn Martinez, founder of AFROBRUTALITY talks about how he started everything from zero in 2008 and the backstory behind every step he took to where he is right now.   How distancing yourself from the noisy world has to be an important aspect of your life. Making the best out of what you have and creating the best from what you can afford is what it's all about.   Let's dive in with Mr. Syn's life of the world of this baddass & awesome Afrobrutality.

By the age of 36, Syn Martinez was a self-made man, climbing his way up from working in the mailroom to traveling the country as a successful sales consultant. The grind took a major toll on his body. He soon tipped the scales at 315 pounds and was faced with serious health issues. Rather than give up, Martinez found lasting fitness and family at the gym. He shares how he took his love for athletics and used it to build a successful brand on Flip Your Script with host Kristi Piehl.

Syn Martinez is the founder of Afrobrutality brand that has built a passionate fan base. We dive deep into very serious conversation and for myself is a conversation that challenged me but with it reminded me why this platform exists and its to have powerful conversations. Syn and I converse about branding and in the modern world with the abundance of information and brands that are following monetary success not authentic culture success. The lack of authenticity in society and in entrepreneurship is where we find a large influence in mental health issues stemming from because of the pressures and influences of these large voices in media.

Here is episode 10 of 12 of The Hard Question Podcast series with Syn Martinez from Afro Brutality. This episode was pretty profound for me. These episodes were born out of the desire to continue Rory's legacy of helping so many people, especially in terms of mental health. Rory only knew Syn and I for a brief amount of time; however, he left such a lasting impact on both of us. We talk about that impact, our views on suicide, social media and so much more. I hope you all walk away better for listening!

In season 2 of episode 4 of Inside The Labyrinth Podcast, Jay and I had the privilege of having two power houses and leaders on the show, Brandon Lilly And Syn  Martinez. "Brandon is a top ranked powerlifter, author of "The Cube Method", and "365STRONG", as well as a respected strength coach. Brandon is ranked as one of the strongest powerlifters of All-Time, having world class totals in multiple weight class, raw, and equipped — *2,110 lbs Raw Belt Only, *2,237 lbs Raw with Knee Wraps and *2,612 lbs Multiply Equipped. His efforts as a lifter, and a coach have helped cause a paradigm shift in the sport of powerlifting. His Cube Method has helped over a dozen men total 2,000 lbs or more in raw divisions, and over twenty women total over 1,000 lbs."  =========================================================================================================================================    "AfroBrutality is a mindset for people who care about being healthy, who care about succeeding in life by any and all means, who will do whatever it takes to add positivity to their life and the people around them," "We're after a mindset of people who want to lead a positive life and won't let life dictate how that looks and feels." Martinez tells BuzzFeed Health he needed something that captured the spirit of their loose collective of mostly black and Latino athletes that started working out together in 2008, as well as Martinez's non-conformist, in-your-face approach to fitness, and the super-hardcore CrossFit workouts they were doing. He drew a skull with an afro and a middle finger as the handle of the afro pick. He called it Afro Brutality." ========================================================================================================================================== Not only was this episode one of my favorite podcasts, but it was one of my favorite conversations I have ever had. Brandon shares his life experience and how a traumatic lifting injury changed his life forever in 2014. Not only was Brandon very honest about his journey but he admitted his faults during his journey which made him who he is today. Syn speaks on how AfroBrutality was created and how he first met Brandon. Syn does not hold back and is the definition of starting an idea from scratch and turning a dream into a reality. If you are looking for life experience and the willing to change, this is for you. Jay and I want to thank both of you leaders for coming on the show and making a difference. Its conversations like this one that show no matter who we are, we all have struggles and we all have the opportunity to grow and make ourselves better. @afrobrutality            @brandonlilly3     @therealjumpmanjay @reps_for_responders  Repsforresponders.org --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/Inside-The-Laybrinth/support

Today I’m talking to Syn Martinez, who owns and operates the fitness and lifestyle clothing brand Afro Brutality. Syn also owned and coached at CrossFit Harlem from 2009 to 2014. I’ve known Syn for around seven years, and he’s always been very transparent and outspoken in his views. In this conversation — recorded just a day before it was announced Glassman would be stepping down as CrossFit CEO — we cover some topics and perspectives that may be controversial in the fitness space. It’s also worth noting the podcast does include language that could make some uncomfortable.Our conversation revolves around the controversy surrounding Greg Glassman and CrossFit HQs stance — or in some cases, silence — on race relations and inclusivity. Syn was an early adopter of CrossFit methodology on the East Coast, and he also built relationships with Glassman and his team over the years, including some possible initiatives to expand CrossFit’s reach within the Black community. Syn gives his perspective on the opportunities that could have been and what he thinks fell through along the way.

Syn is the founder of AfroBrutality, a Harlem-based fitness movement, and Moe is an Olympic lifting coach at multiple gyms in Ottawa.

Returning to the podcast is Syn Martinez of AfroBrutality, CrossFit Harlem and the newly formed caffeine empire or Afro-BREW-tality. This time we talk about the concept of being “Real Man/Woman”. We talk about the lessons you only learn from an ass-kicking, how taking care of yourself equips you to take care of others and the garbage dump that is social media. We also discuss the end of clever words on a shirt, New Jack City, the watering down of fitness apparel and why clean and snatch jokes are FUCKING OVER!   http://shop.afrobrutality.com/

Syn Martinez talks to Brian and Cody about his path as a crossit coach

  This week we talk to the Sadistic Coach himself, Founder of CrossFit Harlem, Creator of the AfroBrutality Brand and disruptor extraordinaire Syn Martinez. Syn talked with us about his journey from fat to fierce-as-fuck, the origin story of CrossFit Harlem, what it’s like building your own personal team of X-men and so much more! That’s not a cheesy marketing phrase, we talked about A LOT OF STUFF, this clocks in at our longest podcast to date and was so full of info we almost broke it into two episodes.  But “to be continued” episodes have always been lame so we crammed in every last minute (we’re talking to you PUNKY BREWSTER). We talked about why abs are bullshit, the good and bad of Paleo, big weight versus endurance, the value of gymnastics in early life, creating a brand while building a community and being who you are. Learn why AfroBrutality has such impact on it’s fans and why trying to please everyone is a weak option. Why pissing some people off can be a good thing. And why if you’re true to your voice, your audience will find you.
