Inputs & Outputs

Think of your body as a complex biological computer loaded with default software that has been running successfully for thousands of years

This magical computer receives an input, runs it through the biological algorithm and creates a very predictable output

The primary biological algorithm our bodies run is the SAID principle

Specific Adaptation to Imposed Demand

This algorithm governs how our bodies change and adapt over time based on how we use them so we can be optimally efficient

Here’s the problem: humans today are unintentionally exposing their bodies to inputs that cause pain, injury and disease

We wear footwear that looks fashionable but literally deforms, disables and damages our feet

We sit in chairs all day because it’s normal but over time, creates adaptations that lead to back pain, knee pain and ankle problems

Apollo is a simple protocol that helps people eliminate shitty inputs like unnatural shoes and excessive time in chairs so their bodies have a chance to produce better outputs

Health is the output of natural inputs

Going barefoot is a natural input

Wearing natural shoes that protect your feet without damaging them allows your feet to be exposed to natural inputs when you move

Sitting on the ground, kneeling or squatting are natural inputs

Apollo is health software for human hardware

Don’t trust us. Run the software and validate it yourself

Feeling better is much simpler than you think and depends more on eliminating harmful inputs than adding a bunch of new stuff

The training stack

Just like websites and apps are build on the foundational internet protocol called TCP/IP, we believe all physical training should be built on a foundational health protocol called Apollo

Because a strong, resilient lower body creates a sound foundation for whole body health

By adopting a low time preference, ditching shoes that damage your feet and adopting a daily upgrade session to develop a resilient lower body, you prepare your hardware to perform at its best

Apollo doesn’t compete with GPP or sports specific training

It transcends the specific

It’s the soil from which you can develop a body that is durable and performs well

There are no bad bodies, only uninformed owners

If your hardware (aka joints, muscles, ligaments) is breaking down, it’s not an equipment fault, it’s a user fault

Your body isn’t the problem, the way you’re using it is

Said differently: the problem isn’t faulty hardware, it’s bad software

Run better software and allow your magical hardware a chance to restore itself back to default settings

Have foot issues?

Have knee issues?

Have hip or low back issues?

~10 min a day is a great start

Human hardware is magical

Used properly and cared for, it will last 100 years and function exceptionally

If that’s true, why do so many people break down? Why does human hardware seem to be failing so much in todays world?

Simple answer: bad software

People aren’t using their body in ways that align with their biology

You can’t take a body designed to move constantly, stick it in a chair 8+ hours a day and expect it to perform well. That’s not how this works

The solution? Better software

Apollo is built on first principles of biology

The protocol is simple because the process of developing healthy feet IS simple and includes only 3 core elements:

1) low time preference

2) footwear

3) daily upgrade session

Total knee replacements done annually in USA: 790,000

Cost of surgery varies widely from $15,000 to $75,000

Average: $45,000

Annual cost in USA: $35.5 billion

90% of these surgeries are preventable if people take care of their bodies

Running Apollo stops the preventable surgeries

As a protocol, Apollo can save humans in the USA immense suffering and $31 billion in wasted capital

The ultimate form of healthcare is taking care of ourselves

The most powerful things don’t cost money, only time

Taking off our shoes and going for a walk

Unplugging from tech for 10 minutes and breathing deeply

Standing on 1 leg for 60 seconds to train our balance

Getting into a resting squat to open up our hips

It doesn’t need to me complicated, it just needs to be consistent

[aracari_836518]

A foot health protocol with 3 core elements:

1) Low time preference

Think long term. Trust the process. Be patient

2) Footwear

Stop wearing shoes that disable and damage your feet

3) Daily upgrade session

Show up for a daily session of at least 10 minutes. Spend that time reconditioning your feet, training your balance, restoring a resting squat, and spending time on the ground

Do those things and you will develop strong, mobile, stable, resilient free that are free of pain

Pass it on

Build your health timechain

For those unfamiliar with #Bitcoin, here’s a crash course:

Money is a ledger

#Bitcoin is the best ledger

The end

—

Let’s talk about similarities between the ledger parameters in Bitcoin and health

A ledger is a tool for recording events that happen

With money, those events are times when money changes owners

With health, those events are things you do to upgrade your body

The bitcoin ledger adds a new page called a block approximately every 10 minutes and blocks are filled with transactions

Your health ledger adds a new block everyday. These blocks are filled with behaviours you did that day

The collection of all blocks created to date is known as the timechain

Apollo helps you begin mining your own proof of work health timechain to reclaim a healthy lower body

Old world vs. New world

In the old world individuals had to trust third party intermediaries with their money

These intermediaries often fell prey to incentives that benefit them while harming individuals

Now, by running #Bitcoin, individuals can take responsibility for their money

In the old world we had to trust third party intermediaries with our health

These intermediaries often fell prey to incentives that benefit them while harming individuals

Now, by running health protocols, individuals can take responsibility for their health

The ultimate form of healthcare is taking care of ourselves. Open source health protocols give everyone access to correct information so they have an opportunity to achieve better health

Peer validated proof of work software that optimizes human biology

The health revolution is upon us. It’s built on open source behavioural software that empowers people to reclaim responsibility for their health

Core element #1 of the protocol: Low time preference

Adopting a low time preference means thinking long term

It means prioritizing long term health and resilience over short term suppression of symptoms

With a low time preference, we focus on inputs, trust the process and view pain as our guide on the journey

With a high time preference (short term thinking), we view pain as the energy, want immediate relief, and ignore long term consequences of our short term actions

With a high time preference we’re tempted to take a drug, an injection or a surgery to get immediate relief even if those very things make the problem worse long term

Restoring a healthy lower body that is strong, mobile, resilient and free of pain is a process, not an event. Lowering our time preference allows us to show up everyday, be patient and witness results over a lifetime

As Saifedean Ammous says, the hardness of the money we use is the control knob for our time preference. The harder the money, the lower the time preference

Best way to lower our time preference? Adopt the worlds hardest form of money - #Bitcoin

Better information = Better Decisions

Improving our health is the process of aligning our behaviours with our biology

We make decisions based on the information we have available

If we don’t have truthful, applicable information, we can’t make optimal choices

Achieving better health is the process of making better decisions

This protocol aspires to help individuals make better decisions for themselves and those they serve

The raw truth: deciding to wear unnatural shoes is a decision to develop unnatural foot health. Most people aren’t knowingly making that decision. We want to change that.

A decentralized health protocol designed to optimize the biology of human feet

We’re developing the antidote to centralized disease care that disempowers people

Our protocol aims to obsolete high time preference interventions that treat symptoms while ignoring the root cause of the issue

Don’t trust us. Run the software and validate it for yourself

Application of the protocol will vary widely between individuals but the core elements must be respected for effectiveness
