Evidence-based men’s health from a real physician. No bro-science. No BS. Just what actually works.
I’m Dr. Tanner Mobley — a US-trained internal medicine physician who’s obsessed with optimizing performance, longevity, and healthspan. I lift, I research, I cut through the noise.
Topics I cover: Peptides • Strength Training • Longevity • Hormones • Home Gym • Recovery
BPC-157 is everywhere right now. Fitness influencers, biohackers, and even some physicians are talking about it as a miracle healing peptide. But what does the research actually show? As a physician who reads the primary literature, here’s my honest breakdown. What Is BPC-157? BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound-157) is a synthetic peptide consisting of 15 amino acids. It’s derived from a protective protein found in human gastric juice. Key point: BPC-157 is not a drug. It’s not FDA-approved for any condition. It’s classified as a research chemical. ...
Ozempic. Wegovy. Mounjaro. Zepbound. These names are everywhere right now — and for good reason. GLP-1 agonists are the most effective weight loss drugs we’ve ever had. But there’s a lot of confusion out there. Let’s clear it up. What Are GLP-1 Agonists? GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) is a hormone your body naturally produces after eating. It does a few things: Signals fullness — tells your brain you’re satisfied Slows stomach emptying — food stays in your gut longer Increases insulin release — helps regulate blood sugar Decreases glucagon — reduces sugar release from your liver GLP-1 agonists are drugs that mimic this hormone, but they’re much more powerful and last much longer than your natural GLP-1. ...
I’ve trained in commercial gyms. I’ve trained in my garage. After years of both, I’m convinced a well-designed home gym beats a commercial gym for most people. Here’s exactly what you need — and what you don’t. The Non-Negotiables These are the pieces that give you 90% of the results: 1. Barbell + Plates (Budget: $500-1500) The barbell is the most versatile piece of equipment ever created. With one barbell you can: ...
The fitness industry thrives on complexity. New programs, new supplements, new “secrets” every week. But the research on muscle building is actually pretty clear. Here’s what we know works — and what’s just noise. The Three Things That Actually Matter 1. Progressive Overload What it means: Gradually increasing the demands on your muscles over time. Why it matters: Your body adapts to stress. If the stress doesn’t increase, adaptation stops. ...
Everyone wants to live longer. But living to 95 in a nursing home isn’t the goal. Healthspan — the years you’re healthy, functional, and actually enjoying life — is what matters. Here’s what the research shows actually moves the needle. The Big Picture Longevity research is exploding. But most “anti-aging” interventions are either: Promising in mice, unproven in humans Overhyped by people selling something Common sense dressed up as cutting-edge science Let’s separate signal from noise. ...
