Strength. Endurance. Recovery. Injury prevention. The difference between training and over-training is invisible until your performance drops. The Athletic Performance Panel measur es the markers that quietly track your readiness — so you know when to push and when to back off. The five recovery dials we measure Stress (HPA axis) — Cortisol and DHEA-S. The cortisol/DHEA ratio is the gold-standard early-warning sign of overtraining syndrome. Hormonal Health — Full sex-hormone panel (testosterone, oestradiol, FSH, LH, progesterone, prolactin, SHBG, free androgen index). Suppressed hormones are the first casualty of chronic energy deficit — for both men and women. Diabetes Health — Glucose, HbA1c, insulin, C-peptide. Endurance athletes especially benefit from tracking insulin sensitivity for fuel-utilisation efficiency. Muscle & Joint — Creatine kinase, uric acid, rheumatoid factor, lactate dehydrogenase. Spot muscle breakdown and joint stress before they become injury. Inflammation & FBC — CRP, ESR, ferritin and a full blood count. Chronic inflammation is the silent ceiling on how hard you can train. Who this is for Endurance athletes, strength athletes, hybrid athletes — male and female Anyone who's hit a performance plateau and can't explain it Coaches and athletes working in seasons (pre-season baseline, mid-season check, off-season recovery) Why unisex? Every hormone in this panel is clinically relevant to both sexes — men's oestradiol matters for cardiovascular health and recovery; women's testosterone matters for strength and energy. One panel, full picture. Analysed in our ISO-accredited UK laboratory. *Sample requirements: x8 Blood Sample Show more
