The Real Issue

You just need a smarter plan

The stiffness in your knees. The hesitation before you step off a curb. The ache that keeps you from the trail, the court, the garden, the grandkids. These aren't signs of aging — they're signals that your body needs a different kind of training. Generic gym programs weren't built for you. Ours were.

Fear of falling

One in four adults 65+ falls each year. Balance is trainable — and we know how.

Lingering injury

Old surgeries, recurring flare-ups, the "I threw my back out again" cycle. There's a way out.

Lost strength

Carrying groceries, getting off the floor, opening a jar — strength makes life possible.

What We Offer

Three programs. One path to aging well.

Our longevity clinic delivers integrated care through three coordinated programs — built around your body, your hormones, and your goals.

The Process

A clear path. No guesswork.

We coordinate everything — training, nutrition, recovery, and lifestyle — so you don't have to plan longevity on your own. Here's what your first weeks look like.

Tell us what's going on

Fill out the form below or call us. One of our owners reaches out personally — no call center, no script — to understand your body, your history, your goals, and what's been holding you back.

02

Get matched with the right trainer

We pair you with the specialist who fits your needs best — balance, post-rehab, sport-specific, strength — and schedule your first session. We don't do waitlists.

03

Train 1–2x a week, live the rest

In-clinic sessions build the foundation. Your trainer also designs an at-home program so progress happens between visits. We adjust weekly based on how you respond — and check in on nutrition, sleep, and life.

"Our goal is to be your teammate: support your journey, remove the guesswork, and make it fun."

Common Questions

Before you reach out.

A few of the questions we hear most often. Anything else — just ask when we talk.

How do I know Austin Longevity Clinic is right for me?

We specialize in pain management, correction of muscular and postural imbalance, longevity, functional fitness, and sport-specific conditioning. If your goal is to keep moving well into your 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s and beyond — you're in the right place.

How soon can I get started?

No waitlist. Once you submit the form, one of our owners contacts you directly within a business day to gather some info, answer your questions, and place you with the trainer who's the best fit. Most clients start their first session within the same week.

What does training at ALC actually look like?

Most clients train with us 1–2 times per week in the clinic. Your trainer also builds a home fitness and nutrition program that fits into your real schedule. The goal is to be your teammate — support your journey, remove the guesswork, and make it sustainable.

What if I don't have an hour a day for exercise?

You're exactly who we built this for. Life is busy — and our programs are designed to fit into it. You don't need an hour a day. You need 1–2 focused sessions a week with a coach, plus short, intentional work at home.

I'm coming back from an injury. Is that something you handle?

It's one of the most common reasons people find us. Our physical therapist and trainers work together on the same plan — diagnosis, treatment, and a return-to-life progression that doesn't bounce you between providers.

Ready When You Are

Let's talk about what's next.

One of our owners will reach out personally within a business day. No call center. No script. Just a real conversation about what you're dealing with and how we can help.
