Precision Longevity for High Performers
ProAging Longevity Lab & Vitality Center is built for individuals who want to extend performance, not just lifespan. This is structured, physician-directed longevity strategy.


Surgical precision applied to longevity strategy.
Developed by fellowship-trained hand surgeon Michael S. Joyner, MD, MBA, PhD (“Dr. Michael J.”), The Standard combines clinical precision, longevity medicine, performance psychology, and physician-led coaching into a personalized system designed to extend health span, build capacity, and optimize long-term performance.
Michael S. Joyner, MD, MBA, PhD operates at the intersection of surgery, positive sports psychology, and longevity strategy.
As a fellowship-trained hand and microsurgeon, he has spent his career in a field where outcomes depend on precision, timing, sequencing, and execution. That same standard now informs his approach to longevity.
Through advanced training in longevity and functional medicine, Dr. Michael J helps high performers move beyond casual wellness and into structured longevity management focused on metabolic health, body composition, recovery, hormone optimization, performance preservation, and long-term vitality.
As a positive sport psychologist, he understands that sustainable performance is not only physiological. It is behavioral. The habits, decisions, mindset, and identity that shape performance must be measured, managed, and repeated over time.
His service as a Major in the U.S. Army shaped his belief that readiness is not accidental. It is built through structure, discipline, and deliberate execution.
