• Athletes and fitness enthusiasts wanting to monitor their recovery and physical readiness

• Individuals experiencing unexplained fatigue, soreness, or reduced performance

• Those preparing for endurance races, strength competitions, or intensive training cycles

• Anyone looking to personalise training, nutrition, and performance strategy

What’s tested?

Energy & Endurance Markers:

• Full Blood Count (FBC):
  Evaluates red and white blood cell health, oxygen transport, and immune function

  • Red Blood Cells (RBC)

  • Haemoglobin (Hb)

  • White Blood Cells (WBC)

  • Platelets

  • Haematocrit

  • Mean Cell Volume (MCV)

• Iron Studies Profile:
  Assesses iron status and oxygen delivery capacity — essential for stamina and endurance

  • Serum Iron

  • Ferritin

  • Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC)

  • Transferrin Saturation

• Vitamin D:
  Supports immunity, muscle health, and recovery — especially important for those training indoors or in low sunlight

Hormonal Balance & Recovery:

• Cortisol:
  The body’s primary stress hormone — affects fatigue, adaptation to training, and recovery

• Testosterone:
  Supports strength, lean muscle mass, and physical energy

• Growth Hormone (GH):
  A key hormone for muscle repair, tissue regeneration, and recovery from training

Muscle Function & Hydration:

• Creatine Kinase (CK):
  Indicates muscle damage and recovery status — elevated levels may suggest overtraining or injury

• Electrolytes Panel:
  Essential for hydration, muscle contraction, and nerve function

  • Sodium

  • Potassium

  • Magnesium

  • Calcium

Sample collection method

A venous blood sample is collected by a qualified nurse during a home or clinic visit. No self-collection or kits required.

Turnaround time

Results are typically available within 2–3 working days from when your sample reaches the laboratory.
