Overview

The Sports Performance test is a comprehensive blood screening specifically designed for athletes, fitness enthusiasts, and active individuals who want to optimise their training, performance, and recovery. This extensive panel evaluates key physiological markers that directly impact athletic performance including energy metabolism, oxygen-carrying capacity, muscle function, hormonal balance, nutritional status, hydration, and recovery markers—all critical factors for achieving peak physical performance. Athletes and active individuals face unique physiological demands including increased nutritional requirements, higher risk of overtraining, exercise-induced inflammation, dehydration, hormonal imbalances from intense training, and micronutrient deficiencies that can significantly impair performance, recovery, and injury risk. This comprehensive screening provides complete insight into your body’s capacity to perform, recover, and adapt to training demands, enabling data-driven optimisation of your athletic potential.

First Class Service
Friendly and helpful staff. Arranged an appointment for the next day at home. Joanne arrived for my appointment to take the required blood tests and delivered them to my local hospital within 35 minutes. I cannot recommend Swift Blood Tests highly enough.

 

Anne

I can’t praise this company enough! Jo arrived on time and was so lovely, easy to talk to and efficient. The whole process from booking the appointment ( and getting one for the following day) to receiving a text that the bloods had arrived at the hospital was really impressive. I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely use this service again-

 

Laura T

This is an amazing service which I heard about through a recommendation and I will 100% be recommending to friends. I booked in late one even and Joanne came early the next morning. I work in London so this was perfect to work around unusual business hours. Joanne was so efficient and friendly. Thank you!

 

Gerald Morgan

Organised a visit for my disabled elderly mother. Trying to get a local appointment through the NHS swift queue system would have meant several weeks wait. This service was booked online within minutes and the service was prompt, efficient and very professionally carried out by a friendly nurse
