The paradigm shift:
From centralized disease care to decentralized healthcare
From trusting authorities with our health to reclaiming responsibility for taking care of ourselves
From proof of degree to proof of health
From reactive to preventative
From expensive, ineffective treatments to free open source effective health protocols
Hard money will usher in an era of low time preference, responsibility and Health 🙌🏽

Humans are blessed with adaptive, self healing hardware and every individual is born with perfect software
Over time, we unintentionally and unknowingly upload error codes that corrupt our software
Specifically, chair sitting and wearing unnatural shoes are two huge error codes for the lower body
Those error codes cause us to run terrible software that damages our hardware (especially our joints) prematurely
Joints are designed to last 100 years if we use them in alignment with what our biology was designed for
Centralized disease care makes money from treating symptoms
It replaces hardware, introduces more error codes (drugs) to mitigate pain but it never removes any error codes to reset the software back to optimal default settings
Opt out of disease care by running your own health software that removes the error codes and restores your software back to healthy default settings
Apollo is open source health software for the lower extremity
Don’t trust us
Run the software and validate it for yourself

Running Apollo means you’re running open source health software that optimizes your lower body hardware
It means you’re taking responsibility for your physical health by aligning your lifestyle with your biology
It means you’re voting against centralized disease care and opting into decentralized healthcare
It means you refuse to trust the experts with your health and reclaim health sovereignty by understanding how your biology functions at a fundamental level
Running Apollo is about more than having a healthy lower body
It’s about leading by example and shifting culture from lies and complacency to truth and responsibility
[trogon_838294]
Understanding how to keep your lower body healthy requires 6 year old level of brainpower
1) Don’t wear shoes that damage your feet
2) Don’t sit in chairs all day
That’s it
Just be a human

Jim is a 48 year old accountant
He goes on a hike with his kids and sprains his ankle. No fracture but it’s a nasty one
Context: Jim wears dress shoes ~10 hours a day that disable and deform his feet and spends ~14 hours a day sitting in chairs which creates imbalances at his hip that make him vulnerable to injury
Option 1: disease care
Jim visits his doctor who prescribes Tylenol and Advil to deal with the pain and 6 weeks of physiotherapy to rehab the injury
Jim does 12 physiotherapy sessions (2x/wk for 6wks) which costs him $1,200 and 18 hours of his time
After the 12 weeks Jim has regained 80% of his pre-injury ankle function and goes back to life as usual
Jim continues to have a nasty ankle sprain every few years and does the same routine each time
Option 2: healthcare
Jim’s brother Andy found out about Apollo from his pickleball partner and has been running the software in his life for 3 months. His knee and ankle pain resolved and he feels stronger than ever before
Andy tells Jim about Apollo. He sends Jim a link to the whitepaper and shares how he applies the protocol by switching to better shoes, spending less time in chairs, walking more and training his balance for 5 minutes every morning while he makes his coffee
Jim reads the whitepaper, learns how shoes and chairs affect his lower body, switches to shoes that support healthy feet, reduces his chair sitting time to 4 hours a day and does a 30 minute routine every morning to work on his hip mobility, balance, squat, and to restore strength and mobility in his feet
After 6 weeks, Jim has no ankle pain, his hip and ankle function is better than it was before his injury and he continues his daily 30 minute session everyday because of how good it makes him feel
After 2 years, Jim is still walking everyday for at least 60 minutes with his kids, hasn’t had any ankle sprains, no longer has low back or knee issues and tells everyone at his office about Apollo
The end

Most people accept that lower body issues are normal
Sore feet
Tight ankles
Knee pain
Shitty balance
Those problems might have been normalized but they aren’t natural and almost all of them are preventable
The core problem: nobody teaches us how to take care of our bodies
“Experts” diagnose our issues with big fancy words and treat the symptoms but they aren’t trained to understand or resolve the root cause of the issues
This is why we’re creating Apollo
We want to open source truthful, applicable education that helps people reclaim responsibility for their lower body health
No more relying on disease treaters
No more getting lost in the noise of the internet
Simple principles grounded in fundamental laws of biology that will transform the lower body health of any human who applies them consistently
1) Lower your time preference
2) Reduce unnatural inputs (shitty shoes & chair sitting)
3) Add natural inputs (walking & time on the ground)
That’s it. That’s all you need to do
Probably seems too simple to be true so don’t trust us

Restoring healthy feet is really simple:
Lower your time preference by saving your time in hard money called #bitcoin
Reduce time in unnatural shoes
Reduce time spent sitting in chairs
Increase time spent walking
Increase time spent on the ground
The ultimate form of healthcare is taking care of yourself

Myth: bunions are genetic
Truth: bunions are caused by shoes
It’s simple really: if you wear pointed shoes, you will develop pointed feet (aka bunions) over time
Wear better shoes = have healthier feet

Feet don’t need support
They ARE the support
Feet are a complex structure loaded with muscles, sensors, ligaments and 26 bones that organize to create a dynamic and stable foundation for the body
Feet need to be free to function like feet
That means spending time barefoot and wearing shoes that are:
1) Foot shaped (widest at the toes)
2) Flat
3) Flexible
4) Have a thin sole so your sensors can feel the ground
Anyone telling you that your feet need support don’t understand how feet work and are likely trying to sell you something
Act like a human, wear human shoes and you will develop healthy, resilient, painfree feet

Legacy foot “experts” are wrong
Disease care degrees are mostly worthless fiat scams
Today’s medical treatments and conventional rehab of lower body injuries is useless at best, harmful at worst
Apollo is a quest to inform individuals so they can protect themselves from the dangers of disease care
A protocol that helps people focus on what matters and take care of themselves
An open source project that highlights signal, trims the noise and calls bullshit on ineffective disease care interventions that benefit providers at the expense of confusing and disempowering patients
The future of health is built on truthful, applicable, simple protocols and personal responsibility

❌
High time preference thinking:
Pain is the enemy
It must be eliminated
✅
Low time preference thinking:
Pain is the feedback
It must be learned from
It’s highly regarded to pretend that a foot issue can be solved without addressing hips
Highly regarded

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?
Run Apollo
~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
