Dr. Frakes leads the physical performance track within Foundation — designing the movement assessment, strength programming, and performance benchmarking that forms the physical half of every Foundation: Performance protocol. His work is clinical, evidence-based, and built around longevity rather than short-term performance gains.
Dr. Jonathan Frakes is a Doctor of Physical Therapy and Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist with clinical experience spanning rehabilitation, sports medicine, and performance coaching. He founded Resurgence Rehab & Performance — a practice built on the premise that the line between rehabilitation and performance is artificial, and that patients deserve providers who can navigate both.
His approach to longevity and performance medicine is rooted in movement quality, structural integrity, and progressive loading — not on volume or intensity for their own sake. The goal of every Foundation: Performance protocol he designs is function that compounds over decades, not peak performance that degrades.
Dr. Frakes joined Foundation as Dr. Long's physical performance partner because the program's philosophy aligned with his own clinical convictions: that the best health outcomes come from integrating the medical and the physical rather than treating them in isolation. He brings the same evidence-based rigor to movement and strength programming that Dr. Long brings to hormone optimization, metabolic health, and medical oversight.
Together, they offer Foundation members something neither could provide alone — a genuinely coordinated longevity program that addresses the whole person.
Every Foundation: Performance member begins with a comprehensive movement screening — assessing mobility, stability, compensatory patterns, and injury history. This baseline determines the starting point for your protocol and identifies risks before they become injuries.
Dr. Frakes builds individualized strength and conditioning protocols around your movement baseline, schedule, and longevity goals. Programming is progressive, periodized, and adjusted based on response — not a template, not an app, not a generic protocol.
Foundation: Performance tracks measurable performance markers over time — strength, power output, cardiovascular capacity, balance, and functional movement. Benchmarking creates accountability, reveals adaptation, and gives both you and Dr. Frakes data to work from at every check-in.
Comprehensive labs, hormone optimization, metabolic assessment, peptide protocols, and medical oversight — Dr. Long builds the biochemical foundation for your performance. Hormones, recovery markers, and body composition data inform and are informed by what Dr. Frakes sees on the physical performance side.
Movement assessment, strength programming, performance benchmarking, and injury prevention — Dr. Frakes ensures your physical capacity grows with your medical optimization. Every protocol is coordinated with Dr. Long so that what you're doing in the gym and what you're doing medically are pointing in the same direction.
