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.

Great service. I’m not the best with needles, however, Jo made me feel comfortable and at ease which made the whole process much more tolerable. 5 stars from me.
