Your Performance Baseline

Start with what your body can measurably do.

VO₂ Max testing helps us understand how effectively your body takes in, transports and uses oxygen during increasing effort. Combined with resting metabolic rate and body composition, it gives us a stronger starting point than assumptions or a generic fitness plan.

The Longevity Gyms Difference

Technology is only useful when it has a reason.

Most biohacking facilities begin with a menu of devices. We begin with what you want to change. Your baseline helps us select and sequence the modalities that belong in your Circuit— without turning every visit into a collection of disconnected experiences.

The result is a repeatable plan built around your biology, capacity and available time. As you progress, the Circuit can progress with you.

01

Measure

Establish a meaningful starting point through performance and metabolic assessments.

02

Match + Sequence

Select the modalities that fit the objective and organize them into an intentional Circuit.

03

Re-measure

Reassess what matters and refine the plan using more than how a single session felt.

Beyond the Blood Draw

Build the capacity to perform and adapt.

01

Strength

Preserve and build the physical capacity that supports performance, independence and longevity.

02

Mobility

Support movement quality and the ability to move through life with fewer limitations.

03

Recovery

Create the conditions that help the body recover between training, work and everyday demands.

04

Adaptive Capacity

Improve how effectively you respond to physical and environmental stress over time.

About Us

Where Athletes Are Built and Champions Are Made.

Longevity Gyms is a physician guided performance and recovery facility for people who take their results seriously, from competitive athletes to anyone determined to stay in the game. The work starts with measurement, not membership: we find out what is actually happening inside your body before we prescribe a single session.

We operate as the performance arm of the Institute for Human Optimization, founded by Anil Bajnath, MD, in Hanover, Maryland, a short drive from BWI. Your first visit is a VO₂ Max Performance Evaluation. From that baseline we build a protocol matched to your physiology and your goals, then we retest, so progress is something you can see rather than assume.

The full collective sits under one roof here, and each one earns its place through published research. We cite that research openly on every service page. If a therapy cannot show its mechanism, we do not offer it.

Measured First

Every protocol starts with data

One to one guided protocols

We created a space where performance, recovery and longevity technologies could be evaluated thoughtfully, sequenced intentionally and used in the context of the person—not the popularity of the device.
