TORP UPGRADES
We have spent 20 years disrupting the field of human development aiming to establish a new branch with a revolutionary method that make human development simpler, more enjoyable and trendy.
For the first time in history, you can upgrade humans like machinery, similar to upgrading cars, phones, computers, and robots.
What we mean is that it is now possible to order effect and results.
Vision
The vision is a paradigm shift. The automotive industry has moved from fossil fuel cars to electric vehicles, which has forced car workshops to think differently and learn new methods for upgrading cars. We envision that clinics, just like the automotive industry, will need to think innovatively and focus on how we can develop people in a more holistic and broader way. By this, we mean focusing on the development of human capacity and skills, rather than just specialized knowledge about isolated problems. "Human Upgrades" is the concept and method that can help clinics improve and evolve to a new level. In today's society, we would argue that when people face challenges at work or at home, our first instinct is to change what is on the outside rather than what is on the inside. We develop technology, recruit new employees and implement various measures to try to compensate for the fact that we lack sufficient capacity or skills to reach our goals. Working to optimize your surroundings is important, but what would happen if we took greater control over the development of the skills and capacity that already exist within us? We believe we need to move away from the "traditional" approach that mainly focuses on injuries, discomfort, and illness, and move toward measures that focus on increasing human capacity and skills, enabling us to move from good to much better much more quickly. To accelerate human development, we need to make it easier, faster, more fun, and trendy. An athletic mindset needs to be established so that a culture of self-improvement can emerge, with people seeing the joy and value in these changes. To achieve this, we need a simple and clear methodology with easy tools to calibrate effectiveness and results. What would be the consequences if we could increase brain capacity by 50% and develop skills 100 times faster? How much better would the world become, both for individuals and for our creative potential beyond ourselves? These are exciting questions that are challenging to predict answers to. But one thing is certain: it would bring people and humanity in the right direction.
Goal
Establish a new branch within human development.
Torp Upgrades will be a "proof of concept" company in terms of effectiveness and results at all levels, which involves extraordinary results both internally and externally.
THE STORY BEHIND
I have always been passionate about helping people improve their lives, regardless of the challenges they face, whether in sports, personal life, or business. As a former elite athlete, I gained extensive personal experience with physical treatments, which fueled an intense curiosity about what works and why—just as much as what doesn’t work and why not. These experiences gave me a burning drive to develop new techniques that could achieve better effectiveness and results than I had seen so far. After years of working with some of the world’s top athletes and extreme sports performers with great results, I reached a point where I began to wonder: “What is the reason I’m not achieving the desired results with certain clients?” I discovered that the common factor among these clients was that they struggled with stress. My curiosity and constant drive for optimization led me to delve into everything I could find on mental treatment techniques and exercises. By coincidence, I experienced an existential crisis at the same time, which triggered an intense stress reaction in my body. I found myself caught in a constant loop of thoughts and felt as though my brain was in a cramp. Desperate for a solution, I reflected on my experience with muscle treatment: when muscles are tense, they need physical therapy to release. But how could I apply this to a brain protected by a skull? I had previously had success using a percussion technique to release tension in tightly packed muscles. Could this approach also work to relieve “cramps” in the brain? With the help of a colleague, I tested the technique. Following my instructions, he stimulated different points on my head. After a short while, the cramp released, and a powerful wave of energy spread through my body. The result of this energy wave was a profound sense of calm and an ability to focus like I had never experienced before. That night, I slept fully for the first time in months. This was the turning point when I realized I found the core issue and the solution for upgrading the human brain and the beginning of the Torp Upgrades method.
