Philipp at the Tegernsee

Hi, I'm Philipp,

a healthy lifestyle enthusiast passionate about longevity and fitness — a former engineer at Bosch working on autonomous driving, now a teacher based in the rural Westmünsterland and teammate for life with my wife Larissa.

Welcome to my homepage! I created this space to track and share my daily protocols, health data, and fitness routines — for my own reference, but also to receive feedback, spark discussions, and grow together with anyone who finds it useful.

What I believe in

Over the past few years, I've become increasingly fascinated by the science — and art — of living better and longer. What started about five years ago as a side interest in boosting my efficiency and performance with bio-hacks, nutrition plans, and targeted supplements has grown into a broader quest to explore, test, and refine a wide range of methods, recipes, gadgets, and strategies to enhance my health, well-being, and (hopefully) lifespan.

Although I've never been overweight or chronically ill, I've always been driven by a desire to optimize my well-being. True health, after all, goes well beyond simply avoiding sickness — it's about feeling energetic, clear-headed, resilient, and ready to embrace whatever life throws at you.

I'm pretty curious and like to try out new things. I'll admit that my competitive nature, high discipline, and tendency towards perfectionism — at least when it comes to my health — often leads me to go all-in, pushing myself to the 120%… not uncommonly earning a good-natured eye-roll from Larissa. Over time, however, I've learned that constantly striving for perfection can clash with the serenity and peace of mind that are key to true longevity. Striking the right balance between dedication and flexibility remains an ongoing challenge — but one well worth pursuing.

At the end of the day, I'm a normal guy (compared to the crazy-rich millionaires or influencers currently entering the longevity space) who's trying to get the most — and the most years — out of life. Sometimes I ask myself if all the effort and investment (time and money) is worth it. The answer is always yes, and it became even more meaningful when the idea for this site took shape. Sharing my experiences not only makes the effort more worthwhile, it gives it a deeper purpose beyond my own journey.

So here I'm sharing the best of what I've found — and sometimes learned the hard way — to help you skip the trial-and-error and hopefully save some time, money, and sanity along the way. One promise: everything I share on this site I've tried myself, and I believe it works in the everyday life of normal people like me. Whether you're looking for tips on nutrition, exercise, wellness tech, or even recipes, I hope you find something useful here. Most importantly, I encourage you to join the conversation, give feedback, and share your own results and experiences so we can all grow wiser and healthier together.
