Physical Intelligence (PQ)

Human has evolved over thousands of years, yet sleep genes are one of the most ancient in the gene pool, and nature did not select for short sleep. We need quality sleep to function properly, behaviourally and cognitively, and manage stress in a sustainable way. And a good night's rest impacts not just the mind, it also regulates hormones, physical repair, inflammation, and ultimately lifespan. Some people believe that they can train the body to function with less sleep. But you can only teach your body to accept diminished levels of performance. Learn to recognise your own circadian rhythm, and equip yourself with practices and habits to restore the sleep you need.

Is there a best diet in the world? Ketogenic? Paleo? Mediterranean? Why does one diet work for your spouse, but not you? Why do you crave snacks so much more than your sibling? Is it because you have a lower willpower? Your DNA may be able to paint insights to those questions. By using genomics to provide a basis for your diet and macronutrient recommendation, we will be able to provide a greater degree of precision and risk mitigation than general off-the-mill advice. In addition to your genetics, we also look at your preferences and lifestyle, so that the eventual solution is sustainable and can be worked into your daily life.

A precision diet is essential for a thriving lifestyle, and yet in spite of the best evidence-based diets, declining agricultural conditions have resulted in less nutritious foods over the last few decades. As such, supplementation is now an important component of your dietary intake. You will need proper supplementation to bring your body back into homeostasis, and to optimise its performance. Very frequently, the right supplementation can mitigate a deficiency from your diet and effectively benefit your system. It is important to note that not all micronutrients are created equal. Our coaches will direct your attention to specific micronutrients relating to your genetics, and advise on the right forms for you.

Genetics can predict about 50% of your exercise performance trainability, and knowing your genetics will allow you to identify the potential areas that can have the largest impact on performance. While that is true, a lack of ideal genotype does not mean a lack of benefit. It just means that you will need more precise attention, and more effort to work against the predisposition of your genetics. Work with our coaches to realise your goals of muscle hypertrophy, muscular strength, functional resilience or fat loss.
