Next generation / 2026
Freddie Erixon, 18
The year that sets up his twenties.

The starting point
Fit and serious about his health
Built through significant medical challenges
Already living on his own
Two B-grade A levels; Accounting underway
University remains a deliberate choice
“Most 18 year olds follow a plan someone else wrote. Freddie gets to write his.”

18 → 30
The habits formed between 18 and 25 set the next 50 years.
A deliberate year begins
Around 90% is built
The brain keeps developing
The runway stays open

The pressure field

Without a system
Injury · flat hormones · plateaus
His body is still building
Bedtime drifts later
Quiet isolation
Expected university—or a gap year that drifts
“Discipline without direction still gets spent, just in the wrong places.”

The opportunity
What he needs next is a framework, guidance, and a process.

The operating model
Body and direction in one plan.
Coordinated with his medical team.
Training, nutrition, sleep and recovery.
A person steering the system.

The program

Evidence over intuition
Version 1 compared with version 2
Conversations held · project launched · route chosen
Trends across the 12 months
Quarterly biomarkers · VO₂ max · strength · sleep
Body and direction against his baseline
