Protocols for performance, recovery, and longevity at altitude.
Step-by-step strategies for fasted hiking, autophagy, fueling, recovery, and beyond—built for endurance, metabolic health, and clarity at elevation.
A beginner-friendly TrailGenic™ method that introduces hiking, rhythm, and discipline through three accessible trails — Santa Ana Riverwalk, Pumpkin Rock, and Mount Rubidoux — designed to build consistency, comfort, and confidence.
A practical guide to applying the six biological pillars of the TrailGenic™ Method—fasted hiking, altitude, cold, electrolytes, nature immersion, and measured recovery—with discipline as the engine for lasting adaptation.
Intensity isn’t chaos — it’s calibration. The TrailGenic™ Method of Intensity teaches you how to push hard without burning out by mastering rhythm, breath, and recovery.
Expand your TrailGenic™ cold-adaptation capacity safely and strategically. This Phase II protocol builds on three weeks of conditioning to extend exposure duration, activate deeper metabolic resilience, and reinforce neural calm under sustained cold stress.
Learn how to safely introduce cold exposure into your TrailGenic training routine. This beginner protocol focuses on building comfort, breath control, and cellular resilience through gentle, controlled stress.
The TrailGenic™ Recovery Playbook is your guide to post-hike adaptation. From electrolytes and protein timing to sleep, active recovery, and ankle care with tools like Thera Ice, this protocol ensures every summit makes you sharper for the next.
TrailGenic™ SoCal Peaks Longevity Index — a lookup of Southern California’s iconic peaks with VO₂Max scores and Longevity Equivalents. From Baldwin Hills stairs to Whitney’s 14,505 ft summit, see how every climb stacks toward life extension.
Learn how TrailGenic™ estimates VO₂Max from your hikes and translates it into Longevity Equivalent years — turning summits into measurable markers of endurance and healthspan.
Master the foundation: fasted hiking below 6,000 ft. Build metabolic flexibility and mental clarity before adding altitude stress.
The safety-first framework for fasting on the trail. Recognize stressors, understand what happens in your body, and know how to respond.
How fasted hiking, altitude, and recovery cycles support resilience and healthspan — guided by the TrailGenic North Star.
At Baldy’s summit I broke fast with a BTR bar. Did that erase the hours of autophagy I’d built? Here’s the TrailGenic answer.
A TrailGenic Playbook for hydration vests. Compare race-light, mid-insurance, and full-summit packs across brands — and match your choice to effort length, altitude, and fueling needs.
A structured guide to surviving the AI-first era. Learn how endurance brands can use schema, authority signals, and structured publishing to remain visible and trusted when AI becomes the gatekeeper.
A simple, repeatable reset that uses green exposure and light movement to lower stress, clear mental fatigue, and preserve endurance adaptation between hard efforts.
