Selected lessons to get you started.
Every lesson takes three to five minutes to read and ends with something you can put into practice today. The library grows every two weeks.
VO₂max — the fitness number that predicts longevity
One of the strongest predictors we have for long-term health. How much you really need, how to get there — and why the goal is a protective range, not an elite number. With over 20 verified sources.

Strength training — the base that carries everything
Strength is reserve — for your metabolism, your joints and the years that count. Why just 30–60 min/week move a lot, which basic lifts really carry, and how to build progressively.

Protein in practice
The biggest and simplest lever in nutrition: how much you really need (~1.6 g/kg), why more isn't more, how to spread it across the day — and where to get it from real food.

Good sleep starts two hours before bed
Melatonin needs darkness, your nervous system a wind-down signal. Dim the light, the caffeine window, the wind-down ritual — and why the strongest evening lever sits in the morning.

The Daily Structure — the frame that carries your day
The bracket over all the habits: the four game changers, a day along your inner clock, and why consistency matters more than perfection. This is where the individual levers come together into a day.

Supplement Compass: your minimal stack
No hype, but food first. Pick your topic and the interactive compass builds your stack — with a tier system, the top foods for each nutrient and the clear "you don't need this". Every claim with a source.

Where this knowledge comes from.
In training every day for 19 years
For 19 years I have guided people into the best shape of their lives — regardless of prior experience or age. As a sports scientist (Dipl.) I combine what actually works in training with the latest state of research. My studio is in Berlin-Mitte, fifty meters from the Spree riverbank — there I train every day exclusively 1:1 with my five-person team.
As a fitness expert I regularly appear on radio and television — among others on rbb. The Academy is the continuation of that: the same substance my clients get 1:1, as open lessons.
What becomes possible: Mirko
Mirko starts at 47 — zero pull-ups, a pronounced rounded back, shoulder impingement, low strength values. Today, at 50, he is fitter than at 20, 30 or 40: eight kilograms of muscle built, six kilograms of fat lost, ten pull-ups with added weight.
In the Academy you get exactly the knowledge that stands behind such journeys.
