What's covered in this blood test?

Advanced Testosterone (total and free)

Overtraining and under-recovery might cause your testosterone levels to drop, affecting your performance. Optimal levels can improve your energy and endurance during workouts.
This affects:
Endurance
Energy Levels
Muscle Health

Vitamin D

Vitamin D is essential for maintaining strong bones and muscles. Optimal levels might help prevent injuries, promote muscular performance, and support lower body strength.
This affects:
Body Strength
Bones And Joints
Muscle Health

Omega-3 and Omega-6

Optimal omega-3 and 6 can promote heart rate recovery and reduce delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). This is a sore, aching, and painful feeling in your muscles after exercise.
This affects:
Heart Rate
Muscle Health
Recovery Time

Advanced iron profile

A ferritin deficiency can affect your fitness. If you’re an athlete or have periods, you have a higher risk of developing low iron due to sweat and blood loss.
This affects:
Cardio Fitness
Energy Levels
Women

3-month glucose (HbA1c)

HbA1c is an important marker of your blood sugar control. Regular exercise helps maintain normal levels. Plus, cardio fitness and normal blood sugar control are closely linked.
This affects:

Diabetes Risk
Heart Health

Standard Lipid Profile (Cholesterol and Triglycerides)

Your body needs cholesterol to make hormones, vitamin D, and bile. Regular exercise promotes optimal HDL cholesterol levels — the type that protects you from heart disease and stroke.
This affects:

Nutrients

Vitamin B9

Folate is essential for producing red blood cells — these carry oxygen around your body. Low levels might lead to tiredness, muscle weakness, and shortness of breath.
