What does a 3x Ironman, Harvard grad, Stanford MBA, former Naval officer, and serial AI founder do when the health tech industry isn't solving the real problem? He builds the infrastructure behind it.

Tony Medrano, Co-Founder & CEO of Longevity Plan AI, joins host Benjamin Johnson on the Particle Accelerator Podcast for a wide-ranging conversation on the state of human performance data, why most wearables give you noise instead of signal, and how AI-powered digital twins are about to change the game for athletes, executives, and corporate wellness programs alike.

In this episode, we uncover - 
-Why your Whoop can't actually measure your VO2 max (and why that matters)
-How Tony completed a full Ironman with a permanently separated shoulder
-What "digital twin" actually means in concrete, practical terms
-The B2B infrastructure play behind Longevity Plan AI, and why it's intentionally NOT a consumer brand
-Why Big Tech wants to kill the coach-practitioner, and how Tony is fighting back
-The ROI case for corporate wellness that Fortune 500 boards are starting to understand What executives should actually be tracking that most have never heard of (hint: peptides)
-How data ownership works, and why your health data belongs to you, full stop

Tony has sold enterprise technology to Google, NASA, the FBI, the NBA, and the US Olympic team. He's not building another wearable. He's building the layer that makes every wearable, and every lab result, biomarker, and EMR record, finally work together.
