About Justin Mihaly
Justin Mihaly is the founder of Elite Functional Health and the architect of the MARCH Method. Over 500 clients. One starting point: read the bloodwork against functional targets, find the actual problem, fix it in the right order.

Background
Justin spent years watching clients do everything right and still feel wrong. Clean diet. Consistent training. Still exhausted. Still foggy. Still stuck.
He started pulling bloodwork and reading it against functional targets instead of standard reference ranges. The markers were there. The dysfunction was measurable. The standard ranges were just too wide to catch it.
He built the MARCH Method around what the data kept showing him and founded Elite Functional Health to do one thing: find the actual problem, address it in the right order, and get people feeling like themselves again.

What EFH has addressed
Every one of these was caught through bloodwork. Every one of them was missed by a standard panel read against standard reference ranges.
Thyroid dysfunction missed by standard reference ranges
Subclinical hypothyroidism driving fatigue and weight resistance
Hormonal imbalances causing low libido, mood crashes, and poor recovery
Insulin resistance presenting as brain fog and afternoon energy crashes
Gut absorption failures blocking nutrient uptake despite clean diets
Adrenal dysregulation masking as anxiety and poor sleep quality
Elevated homocysteine and CRP driving silent cardiovascular risk
Vitamin D and magnesium deficiencies suppressing mitochondrial output
Estrogen dominance and low progesterone in cycling females
Elevated cortisol patterns destroying muscle and driving fat storage
Iron dysregulation causing persistent fatigue in otherwise healthy people
Metabolic syndrome markers appearing years before a clinical diagnosis
His approach
Normal is not optimal.
Reference ranges are built from sick populations. A TSH of 3.8 is not a green light. Optimal sits between 1.0 and 2.0. That gap is the difference between feeling like yourself and running on empty.
Symptoms are downstream of data.
Brain fog, low libido, fatigue, weight that will not move. These are outputs of a broken internal system. The data is in your blood. We find the breakdown and address it in the right order.
Sequence matters more than intensity.
Most people try to fix everything at once and fix nothing. The MARCH Method is sequenced. Mitochondria first. You cannot build on a broken foundation.
We do not guess.
We do not take clients blind. A bloodwork review is not optional. It is the starting point. Every single time.
The MARCH Method
Mitochondria
Restore cellular energy production before anything else.
Absorption
Fix gut integrity and nutrient uptake so interventions actually work.
Resilience
Rebuild stress response, adrenal function, and recovery capacity.
Cycle / Signal
Optimize hormonal signaling and circadian rhythm.
Healthspan / Hypertrophy
Build the body and the longevity markers that make it last.
The Team
Every bloodwork review at EFH is a collaborative process. Your case is reviewed by a team with backgrounds in biomedical science, competitive physique development, and engineering. No guessing. No handoffs to a junior coach.

Lindsay's background is not in coaching. It is in biomedical science and cardiac electrophysiology. She spent years inside the medical device industry before founding and running Elite Functional Health for two years. That combination gave her something most coaches do not have: a deep, systems-level understanding of how the body actually works.
She came to Justin as a client first, seeking one-on-one mentorship on functional health lab work, peptides, and advanced clinical topics. When Justin saw how she thought about the body, he offered her a role at EFH. She took it.
She now works directly with clients on their cases. When your bloodwork comes in, Lindsay is one of the people reading it. She understands that diet, lifestyle, training, and overall health are not separate levers. They are one system. Her job is to find where that system is breaking down and address it in the right order.
Biomedical Science
Formal training in biomedical science and cardiac electrophysiology. She reads physiology, not just labs.
Medical Device Industry
Years navigating the clinical side of medicine before moving into functional health coaching.
Founded EFH
Co-founded and ran Elite Functional Health for two years before taking the Director of Coaching role.
Works Your Case
She is not a figurehead. She reviews client bloodwork directly and works cases alongside Justin.

Riley brings 13 years of competitive bodybuilding experience to EFH alongside a formal background in mechanical and electrical engineering, including control systems design. That combination is rare in coaching. It means he approaches the body the way an engineer approaches a complex system: identify the inputs, trace the outputs, find where the signal breaks down, and intervene in the correct order.
His engineering foundation shaped how he reads data. Where most coaches see a lab result as a number, Riley sees it as a variable inside a larger system. He uses that perspective to build multi-phase protocols that combine training, nutrition, lab interpretation, and lifestyle structure into one cohesive strategy rather than treating each as a separate problem.
Riley works directly with complex client cases at EFH. His focus is on identifying root-level breakdowns, applying interventions in the correct sequence, and driving measurable improvements in performance, physique, and biological function.
13 Years Competitive Bodybuilding
Over a decade of applied experience in physique development, periodization, and peak performance.
Engineering Background
Formal education in mechanical and electrical engineering with control systems design. He thinks in systems, not symptoms.
Multi-Phase Protocol Design
Builds integrated protocols combining training, nutrition, lab interpretation, and lifestyle into one cohesive strategy.
Complex Case Work
Works directly with clients on complex cases, applying lab-based analysis and structured problem solving to drive measurable results.
