I’m Mike Ellerkamp, lovingly referred to as “Ranger” Mike. I am 72 years young, a husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather! The moniker is a holdover from my military service, where I served with the Rangers. I have not always struggled with that Big Barrel Belly you see in the image at right, taken in 2015.
I let myself go! I was drinking too much, had no discipline regarding my diet, and rarely exercised. Although I do not have a measurement to verify, my guess is that I’m about 40 inches at my waist! I’m 5′-9″!
I was not sleeping well, frequently out of breath, and I did not care! I was miserable and finally admitted it to myself—it was time to make a change.
By 2017, I had begun walking regularly and tried different sorts of diets, guessing mostly about how to “lose weight.” The thing was, I lost “weight” but not the belly, which was really frustrating! This meant that I was shedding lean muscle mass—NOT FAT!
At my age, that is counterproductive!
In 2022, I was introduced to a way to design a nutrition and exercise regimen based on my DNA, a program based on my unique life.
I am eating more food, more often. But it is the food that works in my body. I exercise for about an hour daily, 30 minutes endurance (bike ride normally), and 30 minutes strength (a calisthenics routine) because that is the most efficient exercise program for my genetics.
I have shed over 4 inches from my waist and am getting to a healthy weight again with a slow, steady increase in lean muscle mass.
The DNA-based, personalized program targets straight to your unique body design—no more one-size-fits-all approach.

FAQ
DNA-Based
Coaching Program
Is DNA testing available to persons outside of the United States?
Currently, the kits are only available to be sold in the United States. We can talk about this in your consultation.
Is there a monthly fee associated with the DNA plan?
The DNA plan is ONE CHARGE. There are no other hidden fees that come with it. 😊
Is this something that I can do with my kids?
Yes—in fact, we encourage it! The DNA test is a one-and-done thing; the best part about your DNA is that it doesn’t change. Just like adults, children will also experience many positive changes in themselves!
There is no age limit on our testing, though parental consent is needed to test anyone under the age of 18. IDLife requires that the parent or guardian sign the consent form of any person under the age of 18 and may ask for further verification as needed for authorization.
Do I have to pay to ship DNA test back to lab?
No. We will provide you with a pre-paid return shipping bag to send the sample back.
How is sample collected?
You will use a cotton swab provided by our partner laboratory to collect cheek cells from the inside of your mouth.
How long does it take to receive my information from the lab?
Once the sample has arrived at the lab, it typically takes 4-5 weeks for you to receive your secured email with your results. ⏳
Will you ever sell my data?
We partner with a specific lab because it is HIPAA-compliant and CAP-accredited and committed to keeping your data private and secure.
We will NEVER sell your data and personal information to a 3rd party.
Is there a monthly consultation fee once I purchase the DNA?
After the DNA purchase, there are NO additional consultation fees.
With your DNA, you will receive a 46-page document filled with uniquely tailored recommendations crafted specifically for you and a credit for your first month’s personalized vitamins. 💊
You will schedule a consultation with me to review the information. During this consultation, we will review the information, answer your questions, and help you create a plan of action.
I will also give you resources to help you modify your nutrition and exercise habits.
What kind of information will I get from my nutrition & fitness genetics report?
Your results can help you better understand how your body might respond to various diet choices and could help take your fitness regimen to the next level.
Your report includes detailed and unique recommendations to help you eat, train, and live better.
Your report covers topics such as aerobic potential, muscle performance, weight regain after dieting, dopamine and food reward, and caffeine metabolism.
Remember that this isn’t a “one-size-fits-all” approach to nutrition and fitness. Your DNA report is your personalized owner’s manual on how your body responds to diet and exercise based on your unique gene profile. 🧬
Will lifestyle choices affect my DNA results?
Genetics identifies pre-cursers to conditions and how your body was designed. Your EPI genetics are turned on or off. In other words, you can turn on the good or the bad in your genetics based on your daily diet, lifestyle, and environmental exposure.
