I do best with one-on-one support. What I love is the flexibility—nothing is rigid or one-size-fits-all.

Every time I show up, I’m asked how my body feels today. The plan adapts to me, and that’s what makes it work.

The numbers told the story: less fat, more muscle, and a big jump in my VO₂ max. But the bigger change was consistency. In the past, I’d exercise for a few months and then fall off once life got busy. With work and kids, it never really stuck. This time felt different. I’ve increased my body’s strength and resilience, especially in my back, which had been a problem for decades.

I realized there was so much more to learn about my health. Working with my Astride doctor felt different—he was deeply curious and incredibly knowledgeable.

Having the time to really talk things through made all the difference. Instead of just fixing problems, we’re focused on understanding my body and supporting long-term health.

Michael, 75

I don’t just want to live longer. I want to stay functional, active and engaged in the world around me.

My wife and I enjoy traveling, attending community events and visiting family. She is younger than me and expects me to be around for a long time. To do that, I need to maintain my strength and endurance so that we can continue doing all the things we love to do.
