OPUS — Understanding and Optimizing Physical Performance
Your body has
a direction.
Most people have
never been shown
what it is.
OPUS is a complete framework for understanding how your body moves through time — toward health or away from it, building momentum or losing it, and what determines which direction you're going.
- Energy that compounds instead of depletes
- Skin, body composition, and recovery as outputs — not targets
- Understanding why protocols work or don't — for your system
- A model that doesn't change, applied to wherever you are
Built from differential geometry, dynamical systems, and a decade of synthesis across physiology, biochemistry, and applied biology.

The Application
The framework is fixed.
What you do with it is yours.
OPUS has been used by elite athletes optimizing performance at the margins, by people navigating chronic conditions that standard medicine hasn't resolved, by those recovering from illness or injury, and by people who want to understand why their body looks and feels different than it used to — without being handed a protocol that ignores how the system works.
The framework doesn't change based on your situation. What changes is where you are in the cycle, what your turning points look like, and what the sequencing of intervention actually requires for you.
🏃
Performance
What's limiting your adaptation, recovery, and output. Understood at the level of mechanism, not guesswork.
✦
Aesthetics & Youthfulness
Skin quality, body composition, energy, the way you carry yourself — all downstream outputs of cycle coherence. When the cycle runs well, the physical expression follows.
🔄
Recovery
Chronic fatigue, hormonal irregularity, persistent symptoms that haven't resolved. Understanding the root upstream rather than managing what's downstream.
🧠
Baseline Optimization
Something isn't quite right — no clear diagnosis, just a sense. A model precise enough to make it legible, and a path to move the system in the right direction.
OPUS is educational. It is not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Taylor is a health coach, not a clinician.
Why This Exists
This came from somewhere real.
My sister was diagnosed with cancer at twenty-six. She seemed healthy. That's the part I've never been able to look away from — not that she got sick, but that there was no visible signal something was building. She passed away, and I couldn't separate the grief from the question: why didn't we see it? What was the system doing that we had no language for? That's what made this feel less like a career choice and more like something I couldn't not do.
I came into this work from my own experience too. In my early twenties I was overweight, dealing with sleep apnea, chronic acne, and brain fog that felt permanent. It wasn't. I've lost over 40 pounds. I work 10+ hour cognitive days with sustained energy. Those changes came from understanding what was actually happening — not from willpower or a protocol someone handed me.
My partner was one of the first people through the framework. She'd dealt with long-term eczema for years — it resolved. Her believing in what I was building, before it was fully formed, meant more than I can explain.
What followed was years of synthesis across fields that don't usually talk to each other — differential geometry, dynamical systems, liver physiology, circadian biochemistry, applied biology. I'm not a scientist or a clinician. I'm not the most credentialed person in any of these rooms, and I'm not pretending to be. What I can do — and this is where I'm honest about my actual skill — is find the through-line. Take a dozen frameworks that don't speak to each other, find the geometry underneath all of them, and make something that holds together without losing what any of them actually says. That's the skill. OPUS is the result of it — a living framework that I'm still building, still learning from, and will keep improving for as long as it matters.
5,000+ people across 40+ countries have worked with this framework. I'm still learning from every one of them. OPUS is my best current understanding — and it will keep improving.
