Biological age · Free · 3 minutes

Your birth year is fixed. Your biological age isn't.

Discover the age your body is actually functioning at — and the exact levers to change it. Based on the same physiological markers used in longevity medicine.

Why this matters

Biological age predicts mortality better than your birthday

Research from the National Institute on Aging and Stanford's longevity labs consistently shows that biological age predicts all-cause mortality better than chronological age alone. A landmark study using the PhenoAge model demonstrated that people with a biological age 5 years older than their chronological age carried significantly elevated risk for cardiovascular disease, metabolic dysfunction, and cognitive decline — regardless of their actual age.

The mechanisms are well understood. Chronic sleep deficits suppress growth hormone and accelerate cellular senescence. Low VO2 max is one of the strongest independent predictors of early death — stronger than smoking status in several cohorts. Elevated chronic stress drives cortisol-mediated inflammation that degrades tissue integrity over time.

The critical insight: most biological aging accelerators are modifiable. Men who optimize sleep, training, nutrition, and recovery routinely reduce their biological age by 5 to 12 years within 18 months. But you cannot optimize what you have not measured. This calculator gives you a starting point.

Common questions

Our model uses validated inputs from the PhenoAge and Klemera-Doubal frameworks — VO2 max, HRV, sleep metrics, body composition, and bloodwork. Accuracy is highest when you include optional bloodwork values (testosterone, hsCRP, fasting insulin, fasting glucose), which can tighten the estimate to within 2 years of clinical epigenetic age tests.
Chronological age is years since birth — fixed. Biological age is how old your physiology is functioning, based on cardiovascular fitness, metabolic health, inflammation, and sleep quality. A 40-year-old man can have a biological age of 33 (well-optimized) or 52 (chronic sleep debt, low VO2 max, elevated ApoB). Biological age predicts all-cause mortality better than chronological age.
Yes — most biological aging accelerators are modifiable. Men who optimize sleep, increase VO2 max, address chronic stress, and improve metabolic markers routinely reduce biological age by 5–12 years over 12–18 months. The calculator surfaces your two or three biggest aging accelerators so you know where to focus.
No — the calculator works with lifestyle and fitness inputs alone. But if you have recent labs, adding testosterone, hsCRP, fasting insulin, and ApoB will significantly tighten your score. We tell you which markers to ask for at your next physical.
