If my parents were 65, I’d never let them enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan.

What is a Medicare Advantage Plan?

A Medicare Advantage plan (Medicare Part C) replaces Original Medicare (Part A + Part B) and often includes:
* Hospital coverage (Part A)
* Doctor/medical coverage (Part B)
* Prescription drug coverage (Part D)
* Extra benefits like dental, vision, hearing, transportation, gym memberships, etc.

You still pay your Part B premium, but now your care is managed by a private insurance company instead of the federal government.

Sounds good so far, right?

Why it looks appealing
MA plans often offer:
* $0 premiums
* Lower upfront costs
* Extra perks

On the surface, it seems like a better deal than Original Medicare…

But here’s the catch:

1️⃣ You must follow their network rules
If your doctor isn’t in-network, you’re paying out-of-pocket — or you simply can’t see them. HMOs require referrals and pre-authorizations, which cause delays and denials.

2️⃣ Insurance has more control than your doctor
MA plans can deny or delay care. They often require:
* Prior approvals
* Step therapy
* Extra tests before treatment
* Trying cheaper options first
In emergencies, this can be dangerous.

3️⃣ Networks change every year
Your doctor may accept the plan this year… and drop it next year.

4️⃣ Sick people often end up paying more
MA works best when you’re healthy. When health problems arise, the limits and restrictions become a serious problem.

5️⃣ Top-tier providers often refuse Medicare Advantage
Why? Because reimbursement rates are too low. Many of the country’s best hospitals no longer accept MA plans.

Last year my insurance saved me $260,000 — and it was still a complete pain in the ass.

Here’s why 👇

I felt like my insurance company had more power than my cardiologist.

They dictated everything.

* “Sorry, you can’t see the cardiologist until you see a P*P.”

* “That cardiologist isn’t in-network.”

* “We need to review whether you actually need that.”

* “Since you haven’t seen our P*P, that surgery won’t be covered.”

Meanwhile… my cardiologist is telling me I need emergency heart surgery.

So here’s what I learned:

1. Avoid an HMO at all costs.
Yes, they’re cheaper. But they showed zero urgency or care for the situation I was in. While my life was on the line, they were busy seeking second and third opinions — delaying necessary care and even threatening to deny coverage altogether.

2. Insurance is basically a discount card you pay for.
“Here’s your $1,600/month premium… but don’t worry, your $125 copay drops to $75.” Make it make sense.

3. Insurance companies are among the most profitable organizations in the country.
And they don’t get that way by ensuring you get the best care. They get there by protecting their money.

4. Providers can drop or add insurance plans whenever they want.
Just because your provider accepts your insurance today doesn’t mean they will next month. For that reason, upgrading your plan can actually be a smart—and self-protective—move. But the system is B R O K E N — and navigating it during a medical emergency is the last thing anyone should have to deal with.

5. Is it worth it?
Absolutely. $260K in savings is life-changing.

If I could save you $99,000 would you believe me?

💰 I’m confident I can save every single person on Instagram $99,586.

With 3 billion active users, that’s a total savings of...
$298,758,000,000,000.00
(Yes, that’s trillions.)

So how? 👇

Many of you have probably seen the clip where Dr. Peter Attia is asked how much his longevity program costs.

“It’s a six-figure program.”

At a minimum, that’s $100,000 per year — and likely more.
So my estimate of saving you ~$99K is actually conservative.

Here’s the thing:

You can access the same foundational testing his team uses — with us at LiveWell Health.

We offer:
🏃 VO₂ Max Testing
🔥 Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR)
💪 Strength Testing

And the cost? Just $414.

Afterward, AI-driven insights can help you create a personalized plan — based on your data.
Don’t believe me? I’ve done it myself. The results (and plan) were eye-opening.

Now, is it as sophisticated as Attia’s team?
No. It’s not.
But it will put you far ahead of the average American — and give you the clarity to take control of your health.

Because health shouldn’t be reserved for the ultra-wealthy.
With today’s technology, everyone can build a data-driven plan for longevity.

Here’s the truth: what people are really paying for in those six-figure programs is
accountability.

So save yourself the $100K.
Hold yourself accountable.

And if you can’t do it for yourself.
Do it for your spouse.
Your kids.
Your grandkids.

It’s time to invest — not in hype, but in your health.

Is living longer, healthier, and stronger reserved for the elite?

Absolutely not.

While Peter Attia has brought longevity to the forefront, his program is tailored for the elite. But that doesn’t mean you can’t apply the same principles to your own life.

The truth? Longevity isn’t complicated — it comes down to four core habits:

1. Sleep 💤 The most overlooked pillar of health. Poor or limited sleep is directly linked to nearly every chronic condition that reduces lifespan and healthspan. Prioritize recovery just as much as effort.

2. Exercise 🏋️‍♂️ Focus on resistance training and interval work. Two strength sessions and one interval workout per week can dramatically improve longevity markers. Consistency always beats intensity.

3. Nutrition 🥗 Follow the 80/20 rule — mostly whole, unprocessed foods. Aim for 1g of protein per pound of body weight, especially after 55 when anabolic resistance sets in. You don’t have to be perfect; sustainability matters most.

4. Mental Health 🧠 Do more of what brings you joy. Manage stress. A long life means little if it’s not a happy one.
Remember — a big part of what people pay for in elite programs is accountability.
 But accountability doesn’t have to cost thousands. Start by focusing on these four things, stay consistent, and you’ll be well on your way to living longer, stronger, and healthier.

The beauty of a wearable? Instant data at your fingertips.

The downside? Sometimes that data isn’t 100% accurate.

Yes, wearable metrics can be off — sometimes by 30% or more. But here’s the thing: the more data you give your device, the better it gets.

Take Apple Watch VO₂ max estimates, for example. They’re based on outdoor walks and runs. Nothing you do in the gym — not treadmill runs, not brutal MetCons — counts toward that number.

Even a casual walk with your dog is logged — and yes, it can affect your score.
The takeaway: log all types of activity — intense, moderate, and light — especially outdoors. Over time, your watch gets smarter, and your VO₂ max estimate gets closer to reality.

Remember, it’s just an estimate, a guide to see if you’re trending up or down.

* Up & to the right? Keep going.
* Downward trend? That’s when you call us.

Why would a physician recommend us to someone already working with a personal trainer?

Physicians trust us. We’ve built strong relationships with 60+ local physicians who know the level of care and attention we provide to every client. When they refer someone to us, they know their patient will be in capable, professional hands.

They want objective results. Let’s face it—personal training sessions can sometimes drift into social time. Physicians want to see measurable, unbiased data to ensure that the effort being put in is truly benefiting the client.

We’re not here to “steal” clients. If someone comes to us already working with a trainer, we don’t compete—we complement. Our role is to provide clear, actionable data that the client and their trainer can use together. In this way, we’re supporting both the individual and their current trainer.

The most important question you’ll ever ask yourself is simple — why?

Why do you want to be healthier?

What drives you?

For me, it’s my wife and two boys [and maybe more down the line]. I’ve already been diagnosed with heart failure. Every step I take toward better health is a step toward being there for them — to cheer on my boys, support my wife, and witness our family grow together.

For the man on the bike, his “why” came from heartbreak. He knows what it’s like when a health scare overshadows one of the most important days in his life — his daughter’s wedding. He’s vowed: never again.

Your why might look different. Maybe you haven’t found it yet. And maybe that’s exactly why sticking to a routine feels impossible.

Chasing vanity metrics only gets you so far. True motivation comes from seeing the bigger picture — realizing that the effort you put in today, the sweat and discipline, compounds into decades of strength, vitality, and presence with the people who matter most.

Find your why. Write it down. Guard it. Let it fuel you.

When you do, you’ll discover a level of dedication, consistency, and drive inside yourself that you didn’t know existed.

Does blindly throwing darts work in healthcare? 🎯 Nope. Not even close.

But that’s what most people are doing.

They think they need more cardio. They think they need more protein. They think they need the next fitness trend.

And yet… no real progress. Just a never-ending guessing game.

At LiveWell Health, we don’t guess — we measure.
When we analyze your cardiovascular health, strength, and metabolism, the guessing stops.
 Because now, we’re working from data.

We measure 23 key biomarkers to design a plan that’s 100% individualized — built for you and no one else.

Here’s what you get 👇

💨 VO₂ Max 🌬️ Ventilation Efficiency 🫁 Breathing Coordination 🔥 High-Intensity Performance ❤️ Oxygen Circulation ⚡ Resting Metabolic Rate 🧠 Fat-Burning Efficiency 🏃 Movement Economy 💪 Recovery Capacity 🔄 Metabolic Flexibility 💓 Heart Rate Variability 🎯 Personalized Training Zones 🦵 Concentric & Eccentric Strength ⚖️ Muscle Asymmetry 🚀 Power Output 📈 Predictive Modeling

In other words — we can show you where you are today, where you’re headed and how to change your trajectory for the better.

No more guessing.
 Just precision.

Is it possible to change your health after a crisis?
 Absolutely.

We see it every single day at LiveWell Health.

But here’s the truth — the greater the crisis, the harder the climb. So… why wait for one?

Before I was diagnosed with heart failure, I thought I was the picture of health.
 I exercised. I ate well. I managed my stress (as best I could).

And yet… I felt fine. No symptoms. Nothing.
 Meanwhile, my heart’s ejection fraction was in the 30s — working at half the efficiency it should have.

That’s the scary part about “feeling fine.”

What I’ve learned through it all is this:
 ➡️ The human body is incredibly resilient. ➡️ It was designed to heal — from the inside out. ➡️ It wants to return to balance — if you give it the right environment.

It’s not about perfection. It’s about awareness.

Because your body will fight for you… —but only if you fight for it first. 💪

This could happen to you—or to someone you love. And the truth is, it can often be avoided.

Too often, people come to us after a crisis has already happened: a fall, a hospitalization, a concerning diagnosis.

I’m not saying we can prevent every single incident. But we can limit their impact and protect quality of life.

The problem is, most of us assume it won’t happen to us.

“My mom lived to be 104.” “I used to be a college athlete.”

Those are impressive—but they don’t automatically safeguard your health. Genetics only carry you so far. The strength and cardiovascular endurance you built in your 20s? It’s long gone if you haven’t maintained even a basic routine.

Here’s the hard truth: the average American spends 12 years in poor health before their death. TWELVE. That’s the new norm.

But it doesn’t have to be. Not if we face the facts and take action—no matter your age.

Ask yourself: are the choices you’re making today helping—or hurting—your chances of living the life you want in your 60s, 70s, and 80s?

Peter Attia admitted it — most doctors can’t tell you how to get fit.

Why?

Because exercise physiology isn’t part of traditional medical school training.
 Neither is nutrition science.

I’m not saying physicians can’t or shouldn’t give advice, but it’s worth asking questions — especially when you hear things like:

* “You shouldn’t be doing squats.”
* “Running is bad for your knees.”
* “Deadlifts are dangerous.”

Statements like these show a clear misunderstanding of the data — because none of them are true.

Driving is dangerous, but your physician doesn’t tell you to stop doing that.

So when it comes to exercise, here are three simple principles to follow:

1. Prioritize resistance training.
 It offers the greatest overall benefit. Choose a plan you enjoy, but make sure it emphasizes progressive overload.

2. Include interval training weekly.
 Just one session a week can improve cardiovascular health. Focus on intervals in the 3–8 minute range to boost VO₂ max.

3. Be consistent.
 Don’t go from 0 to 100 overnight. Start with three workouts a week (two resistance, one interval). Once that feels easy, add another day. Keep building until you find your groove.

🚨 Hot take: Your obsession with Zone 2 is just an excuse to avoid hard work.

I see it all the time — people prioritizing Zone 2 over resistance and interval training.
Why? Because it’s easy. It’s comfortable. It doesn’t require you to “go to that dark place.”

But here’s the problem 👇 You’re avoiding what your body actually needs.

Zone 2 won’t move the needle like you think it will.
 Resistance training will. 💪
 Intervals? Talk about bang for your buck.
Thirty minutes of high-intensity intervals will do far more for your health than 3–4 hours of Zone 2.

Zone 2 is for those who are already maximizing their resistance and interval work — not replacing it.

Now, that “maximizing” looks different for everyone.
For me, it’s:
 🏋️‍♂️ 3 days of resistance training 🚴 1 day of long intervals (6:00 on / 2:00 off) 🏃 1 day of short intervals (3:00 on / 1:30 off)

If — and only if — I hit those, THEN I’ll think about Zone 2.
