Health & Fitness
Evidence over anecdote. I weigh in on the same scale, sampled to the 1st and 15th of every month. The chart is the raw export — not a straight line, not a curated highlight reel. Latest: 304.4 lb on May 1, 2026. Public so I can't fudge it.
Two notes on framing. Supplements are graded by evidence strength, not marketing claims (see ratings below). Lab values are scored against evidence-based optimal targets for active adults — not the lab's reference range, which is the population average. Average isn't the bar.

Supplement Stack
Psycho Pharma Edge of Insanity
1 scoop30 minutes before training
High-stim pre-workout. 350mg caffeine anhydrous + 70mg Infinergy (dicaffeine malate) for sustained energy. 8g citrulline malate for pumps, 3.2g beta-alanine for endurance, plus yohimbine HCl (5mg) and alpha-yohimbine (4mg).
Caffeine blocks adenosine receptors and increases catecholamine release. Citrulline malate elevates plasma arginine for nitric oxide-mediated vasodilation. Beta-alanine increases muscle carnosine to buffer H+ during high-intensity work. Yohimbine antagonizes alpha-2 adrenergic receptors to enhance lipolysis.
Thorne Creatine
20g/daySplit throughout the day
Creapure creatine monohydrate. NSF Certified for Sport. High-dose protocol for maximizing phosphocreatine saturation.
Increases intramuscular phosphocreatine stores, enabling faster ATP regeneration during high-intensity efforts. At 20g/day, maintains full saturation well above the standard 5g maintenance dose.
Thorne Multi-Vitamin Elite
2 capsules AM / 2 capsules PMWith meals, split AM/PM
NSF Certified for Sport. Foundational multi covering D3, K2, zinc, magnesium, active B vitamins (methylfolate, methylcobalamin), and botanical extracts. Replaces the need for standalone D3, zinc, and magnesium supplements.
Provides bioavailable forms of essential micronutrients: methylated B vitamins bypass MTHFR polymorphisms, chelated minerals improve absorption, and K2 directs calcium to bone rather than arteries.
Thorne Omega-3 with CoQ10
2 gelcapsWith meals
NSF Certified for Sport. Combines EPA 425mg, DHA 270mg per serving with 30mg CoQ10. Sourced from wild-caught fish with third-party purity testing.
EPA and DHA incorporate into cell membranes, modulating inflammatory eicosanoid production. CoQ10 supports mitochondrial electron transport chain and acts as a lipid-soluble antioxidant.
Thorne Whey Protein Isolate
1-2 scoops (21g protein/scoop)Post-workout and between meals
NSF Certified for Sport. Ultrafiltered whey isolate from grass-fed cows — no artificial sweeteners, no soy. Chocolate flavor. Helps hit the 300g+ daily protein target.
Rapidly absorbed complete protein with high leucine content (~2.5g/scoop) to trigger mTOR-mediated muscle protein synthesis.
