If it's important, you'll carve out the time and space in your life for it. If it's not, you won't. Your true values are ultimately revealed by what gets done.

Most companies try to sell everyone. We turn people away. Not because we are precious. Because fit determines outcomes. RHA is a high-performance medical practice. We provide coordinated, physician-led care for people committed to optimizing their health—not just treating illness. This model works exceptionally well for the right people. It fails for the wrong ones. So let me tell you upfront who should NOT join: If you are looking for the cheapest option—we are not it. Our annual membership is $6,970 plus diagnostics. If that creates financial stress, the timing is not right. Function Health offers excellent lab testing for $499/year. Wild Health provides physician-led care for $2,400/year. Both are legitimate options. If you only want lab data—you do not need us. Function Health and InsideTracker provide comprehensive biomarker testing without the physician relationship. We would be overcharging you for services you do not want. If you only want hormones—there are specialists who do it better. Marek Health is the category leader for TRT/HRT protocols. If hormone optimization is your sole goal, they are more focused and less expensive. If you want a magic pill—that is not what we do. We provide protocols, coordination, and accountability. But you have to execute. If you are looking for someone to "fix" you without lifestyle changes, keep your current doctor. If you will not follow through—we would rather you succeed somewhere else. Our outcomes depend on member execution. We will coach you, hold you accountable, adjust protocols. But we cannot do the work for you. Why am I telling you this? Three reasons: First, your money matters. $7,000+ is a significant investment. If there is a better option for your specific needs, you should know about it. Second, fit determines outcomes. Our best results come from members who match our model. Mismatched members get frustrated, and we cannot deliver what we promise. Third, we have limited capacity. Our physicians maintain small panels to provide unlimited access. We literally cannot serve everyone, so we prioritize people we can actually help. So who IS this for? You might be ready to graduate from self-managed health if: You are already tracking—but nothing is integrated. Labs in one app, wearables in another, training logs somewhere else. You are the one reconciling conflicting data. You have multiple advisors who do not talk to each other. Doctor here, trainer there, maybe a nutritionist. Each gives advice in isolation. You are the project manager of your own health. You are spending significant time interpreting data instead of acting on it. The research, the second-guessing, the optimization—it has become a part-time job. You want optimization AND medical oversight. You are pushing beyond standard care—hormones, metabolics, longevity interventions—and you want a physician who actually understands what you are trying to do. Maggie Andrews described this exactly: "Rebel Health meets you where you are at and their staff is committed to your progress and goals. Some people are fit as a fiddle and want to dial in their longevity even more... The team at Rebel Health will set the stage and support you to hit goals and maintain them. The only unknown is if YOU can match their commitment to change and success. The only unknown is if YOU can match their commitment." That is the graduation question. PO came to us already healthy by conventional standards: "I was already in excellent health by today's norms and benefitted none from our acute-focused healthcare system. Thus I was looking for novel approach to healthcare built on data and geared for peak wellness. I found that with RHA." He was not broken. He was ready to hand off the coordination. Dave put it this way after a year with us: "I do not have many medical problems, but for the small issues that I have had, the team has been very helpful. They provide guidance and then follow up with labs to verify and check results, making modifications as needed. They are not simply relying on 'feel.' I am healthier than I have been as an adult. Not simply relying on feel." That is what changes when you graduate from DIY to coordinated care. You stop guessing. You stop being the integrator. You get a team. The decision is simple: If managing your health has become overhead instead of leverage—if it is competing with your actual life and work—it might be time to hand it off. If you are still enjoying the process and have bandwidth for it, stay in DIY mode. There is no shame in Phase 2. But if you are ready for Phase 3—coordinated delegation with a physician-led team running the system—we should talk. We would rather have the right 500 members than the wrong 5,000. If you think you are one of the 500, book a discovery call. We will tell you honestly if we are the right fit—or recommend an alternative if we are not. [SEE IF YOU QUALIFY - LINK IN NEXT TWEET] John Founder, Rebel Health Alliance P.S. — If you join and realize within 30 days that we are not the right fit, we refund your membership. No questions, no friction. We are that confident about fit mattering more than volume.

The Comeback is a short documentary following Latimore’s return to professional boxing after nearly a decade away from the ring. The film documents how he underwent advanced health testing with Rebel Health Alliance to identify hidden limitations, correct underlying issues, and rebuild elite performance from the inside out. Through Rebel Health Alliance’s data-driven diagnostics and coordinated care approach, Latimore addressed key health metrics that had gone undetected for years—allowing him to optimize recovery, training capacity, and long-term performance. The result was a successful return to the ring and a first-round victory at age 40. This documentary goes beyond boxing to explore resilience, discipline, and what it takes to engineer a true comeback when time is no longer on your side. youtube.com/watch?v=8CU0gHNs…

You know that feeling when you’re working hard… but your body just won’t respond? Ed Latimore wasn’t slowing down because of age or motivation. His system was breaking down — stress, hormones, recovery, inflammation. He didn’t understand the signals at the time… most of us don’t. We push. We grind. We compensate Until the body demands a different approach. This reel captures that moment of recognition — when you realize the old methods won’t get you back to where you want to be.

CSCS/DPT combos like Tom are wizards. Every active person, and everyone should be active, should have someone like Tom in their corner.
Great PTs value strength training principles. Great S&Cs value rehab principles.

I was skeptical of sleep supplements until I looked at PreSleep's formula: ✅ Magnesium Glycinate ✅ L-Theanine ✅ Glycine No fluff. Just science-backed ingredients at proper dosages. After taking it, my sleep latency dropped exponentially—from 60+ minutes to 30. As a rehab pro who lives in his own head too much, this was game-changing. Right now they are running a Black Friday sale that is too good to pass up. Use code TOM30 for 30% off (ends Dec 2) Link in bio.

Tom is my personal PT and the top PT at rebel. He’s a wizard. He’s saved me so many times. If you need PT services - reach out.
The structure of your rehab plan builds patient confidence. Throwing random exercises at them doesn't. When clients can't see the progression, they don't trust you know where you're going. A simple example: Isometrics → Bodyweight → Weighted Exercises To you: Basic Rehab 101 To them: A clear path from injured to recovered They see the roadmap. They trust the process. They do the work. Better systems = Better compliance = Better outcomes.

BIG NEWS AT REBEL HEALTH Today we officially announce that Virginia "Gina" Sereno - elite triathlete, NASA engineer, and one of the most compelling young athletes in America as the newest member of the Rebel Athlete Team. Gina is currently ranked among the top three US Women Triathletes and is expected to compete for the Olympic Team headed to Los Angeles in 2028. Rebel Health Alliance will be there by her side for every run, bike, and swim to the Gold Medal! Gina is the exact type of high performance human our movement was built for. She not only competes at the highest levels of triathlon and distance running, but she is also pushing the limits at NASA's Jet Propulsion Lab. She represents the best of sport: scientific, data driven, curious, and unwilling to accept the limits most people settle for. (cont)

A lot of the hip mobility stuff we see online will make most people’s hips worse. It looks cool on video but probably grinds already frayed labrums. @TomBroback

There's no drug or natural product as effective against chronic disease as eating right, training smart and getting lean and fit. Nothing.

Resistance training is powerful medicine for type 2 diabetes. 💪🩸 A 2025 meta-analysis of 30 RCTs (>2,000 participants) found it reduced HbA1c, BMI, LDL & triglycerides — while increasing muscle strength & HDL. Strong muscles = better glucose control ophrp.org/journal/view.php?d…

Project Unreasonable Update REHAB / PREHAB time My knees hurt from bone spurs and patellar tendinitis. My Achilles really used to hurt but now I wanna keep it happy. My anterior tibialis flared up during training. We want to get ahead of all these things so during this low/zero load period rehab, balance, and core work is the focus. Here’s my PT plan for the next two weeks below. During training my Anterior tibialis insertion hurt so badly I thought I had a stress fracture. My DPT at Rebel, Tom, gave me some simple isometrics and rehab work to do and it cleared right up. Earlier last year my Achilles hurt so bad I’d limp just walking. Again, simple isometrics and in three weeks pain was gone. My knees are a different story. Bone spurs and patella sheer have accumulated over time. Any flexion past 50-60 degrees really flares things up. I quit squatting and doing leg extensions two years ago because of it. Had to get cortisone shots regularly. But once I quit the loaded squats and started running knees cleared up great. But for strength training now team wants me doing loaded single leg work with deep knee bends so first step is trying to clear the tenon pain I’m hoping Tom’s wizardry will save the day again here! 2-3 weeks of this and I’ll check back with him and you all Through out the journey the DPT by my side will be crucial. Injury prevention and or a quick healing time will be key! Biggest risk factor to success is being on the shelf for an extended period of time. Rehab season is upon me!
